Do not ask for special ex amination In the spring. 3. Have you a War Saving Society In each of your rooms? It takes only ten pupils to form a society. There are only three things required of a m cm bar: (a) To save his money, (b) To buy war saving stamps or thrift stamps, (c) To try to get" others to Join the society. If a mem ber wishes he may become an officer In the war savings campaign and the If a member secures ten members he becomes a soldier of war saving and the government gives to him a badge with one star; If he secures SSTnem. bers he becomes a captain of war sav ings and he receives a badge with two stars; for 60 members he becomes a Major of war savings and receives a badge with three stars; for 100 mem bers he becomes a Colonel of war sav ings and receives a badge with four stars and for 200 members he becomes a General of war savings and receives a badge with five stars. It Is not necessary however to try for an offi cer's place to become a member of a society; this is discretionary entirely wlth the members. The organization is atmply ten or more people who pledge themselves to save what money they can to buy war saving stamps or thrift stamps and to try to get oth ers to Join the society. Principals and teachers are urgently requested to or ganize a society In each room If they have not already done so. When these societies have been organized have regular meetings once each week; at these meetings have a defi nite program and make It as attrac tive as possible. Ask the people In the community to attend these meet ings. Schools that have more than one society and there Bhould be one for each room, might have all of the societies in th school to meet togeth-* er In the weekly meetings. Be sure to have as a part of the program a re port from each society as to the num ber of stamps bought Please refer to the letter I sent you two weeks ago concerning suggestions for keep ing the work up during vacation. Pamphlets on organizing war saving societies were sent each school also but if you need further help eall on me and I will go or send some one, day or night. Teachers do not' lose this opportunity of teaching your pu_ pils this lesson of saving and serving; remember you will also be -taking a great part In the. great worm" con flict. Take sufficient time from the school hours for this work. Please send to me as often as possible any special work your societies are do ing. 4.
