Excerpt from Thrift in the Household
Thrift is the making the best of what one has in strength, time, or money; getting one hundred per cent. in one"s relations with life. Thrift is an appreciation and application of the accumulative force of little things. Thrift is a constructive force; waste is its destructive opposite. Sometimes thrift is saving, going without; sometimes thrift is spending - "there is a scattering that increaseth" - but always it is something for something.
