Not A Butterfly
Money’that has slipped through your
fingers in the last twelve months is
gone. You can’t recapture it again
with a butterfly net, because someone
else now owns it and enjoys its use.
You can, however, determine to bank a
part of each dollar you will earn during
this year. That is the first step in
building up a growing bank account.
A growing bank account means more
than more money. It means less worry
and greater independence for you.

It’s a long way to Mt. McKinley,
where good eats are very rare; so
fill up your lunch bags with fresh
fruits, boiled ham, and dry sausage
that’s made from a polar bear; and
when you return from the Yukon and
the big ship’s waiting for you, just
go to your berth with a lunch bag, it
will be a life-saver to you. And when
your long voyage is ended and the
Harding Gateway you’ve gone thru,
with all the good eats and fine seen- j
ery, you'll be a bear.
