(Special to Gateway by United Press)
MODESTO, Calif., Sept. 20.—A new
feature of the Stanislaus Live Stock

commissions usually paid buyers.

w «* Ban on Extravagance
Following the example set by some of the war
ring nations, a movement of some magnitude has been
inaugurated in the United States to instill a sense ol
economy in the people; it is a fact that we as a people
are the most extravagant in the world. II you are one
of the many Americans who have never experienced
the feeling of safety and satisfaction engendered by
the possession of a savings account however modest,
JUST TRY IT. You can start it with a dollar, and the
start is the only difficult part of it. Surmount that
difficulty TODAY.
