The Bank for Savings has something
offer which adds to the attractiveness of
to
any
girl. Love, beauty and winsomeness cannot
of course be stated in terms of money. But the
habit of thrift, the love of simplicity, and the
absence of extravagance which the Savings
habit gives to any girl do much to insure the
permanence of her attractiveness.

From reports and rumors that

coming conference, and that this de
cision will Include at least three
principal conditions.
i The first will be that Germany
must raise a forced Internal loan In
gold through the sale of her foreign
Investments.

The second Is that she must sub

As we enter 1923 the prospects of
any such temporary settlement can
not be viewed with great hopeful
One thing that seems all too
clear Is that European conditions In
1923 Will be worse than they have
been In any'other year since - the
armlsllce. Moreover, these bad con-1
dltlons are gt^neral and not restrict-j
ed to any two or three nations.
The fact is that almost every na-i

than Its income, and Is consuming
more than It produces

great depreciation of the currency

Among the nations which axe ex

industrial life of each nation la toe
