INCULCATING THRIFT
SCHOOL CHILDREN’S SAVINGS TOTAL £126.
Some time ago the Wanganui Education Board issued circulars to schools and committees recommending that children should avail themselves of the Post Office Savings Bank scheme wherein they could deposit their savings. The children are provided with slips containing spaces to affix 12 penny stamps. When the necessary 12 stamps are affixed an account is opened with the shilling deposit. The children of the local D.II. School, encouraged by their teachers, have taken pp the scheme, and 140 accounts liave been opened at the local post, office, the total deposits to date amounting to £126.
Thjs, we believe, is a record tor the Board's district, and it is to lie hoped that as a result the children will lay the foundation of thrift and reap the benefit in after life.
