'/This announcement, which of course »applies only to those bond holders wuo have not conv irted their securi- ties already, has Just been made by ’the Federal Reserve Bank of Rich- . mond. Government statistics show , that there are outstanding in the United States about $750,000,000 of ' these bonds which have not been con- averted, a block of no small size being j owned, it is believed, in this state. , Owners of bonds of the Second Lib- .'•rty Loan should hsrve them convert- ^'ed before November 15. 1919. Bonds ' of the First Liberty Loan ConV'.?rted ought to be presented for conversion , before December 15, 1919. These f securities will be received by local ' banks in exchange for either coupon 'or legistered 4 1-4 bonds. The new ^ rates of interest will begin on the dates given. / However, unless the bonds are pre- 'sented for conversion before Novem- ; ber 15, and December 15, respective- ’ ly. the 4 1-4 per cent rate of interest , will not begin until May 15, 1920. in ; the case of the Second Liberty Loan 'and not until June 15, 1920 on the 'bonds of the First Liberty Loan-Coij' , verted. In other words, by waiting • until after November 15 and Decem- , ber 15, respectively, the holders of the 'converted bonds, as indicated, would ’ lose six months interest at one-fourth , of one per cent, which on all the un- i converted bonds ofitstanding of the ■issues named would amount io more ■than $900,000. I Bonds of the First Liberty Loan originally paid 3 1-2 per cent. Bonds of the Second Liberty Loan carried ! , interest at the rate of 4 per sent, i \ Holders of the First Liberty Loan ! were therefore allowed to convert ' their 3 1-2 per cent bonds into 4 per , cent securities known as First Lib- /erty Loan Converted. A great many ' subscribers took advantage of this ,ofrer. Now those who did so and all ' holders of bonds of the Second Loan ’ may again increase their interest re- ;tum by converting their holdings into 4 1-2 per cent bonds, this being the • interest rate of the Third and Fourth Liberty Loans. TEXT BOOKS WILL BE ■ FURNISHED TEACHERS Two Courses Are Issued by Treasury Department and Wiii be Sent Free Upon Request. To further the teaching of thrift in the schools the United States Treas ury Department has issued two text books, copies of which may be had by any teacher desiring them. One is designed for use in elementarj^ schools. It gives a suggested outline, the purpose being to shape the habits and character of the school child in the formative period of his life. The second book known as "Fifteen Les sons in Thrift” is to be used in tha high schools and naturally is more advanced in the treatment of the sub ject. The books are being handled in this district by William R. Timmons, di rector of the Educational Division ol the War Loan Organization, at Rich hiond, Va. Mr. Timmons will be glad to send copies of the books free of charge’ to all principals, teachers and instructors who are interested in the subject. In both pamphlets the lessons are' sufficiently flexible to permit the in troduction of such local material as has particular interest and value. Thrift and the principle of saving are now being taught in hundreds of schools throughout the country, hav ing been incorporated in the regular work and assigned a place on the schedule ranking with other more im portant subjects, it being now recog nized that the study of thrift is be coming more and more necessary in order that the pupil may be better equipped for tie problems of life.

But until six months ago David Broderick, ol Niagara Falls, N. Y., had never learn ed how to slip the bolt into place. Con victed of a minor offense last January, be was placed on probation, and or dered to take $12 a week to the pro bation officer. Broderick protested, saying that it was impossible for him to pay so much, but agreed to try when he real ized that a jail sentence was the al ternative. Each week since that time he has paid in his twelve dollars, and at the expiration of the six months term he was handed $2i0.50 wcrth ol War Savings Stamps, the result of his saving. When the justice entered his court room the next day he found on his desk a cigar wrapped in the following note signed by Broderick. “You’re a friend of mine. Good luck. Judge.” Broderick is now under a voluntary probation period of indefinite length, promising to bring in $10 a week to continue his savings investment. WHAT B£N DID Ben Franklin was a tiirifiy man.
