PENNY PINCHES
f
Getting ahead financially is not a matter of “pinching
pennies.” Quite to the contrary! Actually you can spend
money more happily once you have embarked on a program
of systematic saving. First step is to establish the amount
that you reasonably can and MOST CERTAINLY WILL
save each payday. Then see to it that these dollars go
promptly into your savings account every week . . . before
they have a chance to go elsewhere.

ARR Seeks Withdrawal
Of 63.2 Acres Land
The Alaska Railroad has filed
an application with the Bureau

take care of expected settlement
and development of the area.
