TUs compares with only $1.5 billion in 1950 and a World War II high of $41.4 billion in 1944. In the prewar year of 1940, saving totaled $4 billion. Liquid saving includes currency, bank deposits, savings and loan association shares, government bonds, insurance and corporate securities. The figures for 1951 show that individuals put more into insurance than into any of the other principal forms of saving. The next largest category was currency and bank deposits, followed by securities and deposits in savings and loan associations. An offset to the large total of saving was the accumulation oi close to $6.5 billion of debt i »'V : j •, Children With Epilepsy With proper treatment, most chil-. dren with epilepsy are able to live about like any normal child. . ados John W. ffcmtti, At, 3, Henry, has added to ttt* the purchase of "La Fraise Light" from La Fraise Fottt, iPontiac, 111...The new animal purebred Milking Shorthorn. i»' v • ^ Pepnlatlea Growing Fast £ Whopping gains continue to fee* ture the nation's population oufiook.
