using variables from a file


I want to add some users that I have in a text file and write a script that will go through the list and add each user using the adduser command. I something like it once when I did daily backups. It would search all the directories and print the files that where changed in the last 24 hours. Then make a tarball with all the files listed in the file. Anyone here know how to do it? thanks
