WHY THE ELEPHANT NEVER FORGET'S ONCE upon a time there was a little elephant . called Edgar. Every week Edgar's mother gave him some money to bank and, because he was only a little elephant who loved to play, she would tie a knot in his trunk so he wouldn't forget. One day Edgar met a cunning old monkey who asked him the reason for the knot. When Edgar told him, the cunning monkey said, "I'll undo the knot in your trunk, because it is hard for you to play like that, but to make sure you won't forget I'll tie a knot in your tail instead ." Edgar agreed, · but, because he only had a tiny tail and could not see it anyway, he forgot about the bank and the monkey persuaded him to spend the money. Then, when all the money was gone, the monkey went on his way, and it wasn't until poor Edgar, who was now quite tired, sat down and his tail hurt, that he remembered the money and the bank. Later, when he told his mother, she said: "There are always people eager to help you waste your money, Edgar. If you listen to them you'll never have anything." - Edgar never forgot again. Now every week he banks his money. If you aren't saving something every week, start to-day. Open _an account in the , -C~~ON""EALTH - ~~BANK THERE'S A BRANCH OR AGENCY IN YOUR DISTRICT SCH.74.
