S7 8 1 FOOD IS CURE FOR BOLSHEVISM First Aid Treatment Splendid Medi cine for Spirit of Unrest How War Savings Stamps Help. . President Wilson has asked for food to stop the wave of Bolshevism roll ing westward out of Russia. No intel ligent person doubts the value of food is a first aid, but at bottom the secur ity 'of our institutions rfsts- upon the working interest the people take in thosq institutions. Citizens having no interest in a gov ernment, no economic interest in tne success of that government, are apt to be the first victims of vicious propa ganda or unbalanced political theo rists; On the other hand, men and women who have invested in their government either by way of conduct ing private enterprise under its pro1 tection or through direct purchase of government securities have something at stake and desire to maintain stable institutions. Such persons are not necessary reactionists. They may be quite progressive and anxious for reform where reform is needed. Consequently the effective barrier to Bolshevism in America today is thrift and investment The philosophy must reach into the workshops of the nation. It is reaching into those work shops and into the schoolhouses of the i nation in the form of the Thrift Stamp and the War Savings Stamp. When everybody In America is buy-4 ing Thrift and War Savings Stamps as a habit one won't hear much about Bolshevism in America. It Is the financial and patriotic duty of every American who loves real liberty t& get the Thrift Stamp habit NOW. HOLD WAR SECURITIES. Eastern Business Men Issue Warning . Against Parting With Government Bonds and W. S. S. That it is a bad business proposi tion for any merchant to encourage holders of War Savings Stamps to exchange them for merchandise is the opinion of a group of eastern business men, who recently discussed this question at their annual convention. "Such action merely helps fake pro moters and dishonest brokers in their effort to shake public confidence in government bonds as an investment," said-one of the speakers. "It is la mentable that they have worked to an alarming degree among the poor, and among ignorant people of this coun try." The two hundred delegates attend ing the gathering were so-impressed with the necessity for keeping War Savings Stamps in the hands or the original purchasers that -each pledged to go 'back home and constitute him self the head of a vigilance commit tee to oppose the offering of merchan dise for government securities. TO ENCOURAGE THRIFT Schools Called Upon by Treasury Department to Make Saving Happy Habit Through the government savings di rectors of the twelve federal reserve districts, the Savings Diyision of the United States Treasury Department has called upon the normal schools, colleges and universities of tie coun try to aid in the government cam paign to make thrift a happy habit The American Council on Education, representing institutions of higher learning throughout the country, has Joined with the Savings Division to secure the co-operation of the schools. The plan evolved by the Savings Di vision and the Council on Education contemplates the creation of thrift or ganizations in each of the normal schools, colleges and universities, to teach the basic principles of intelli gent saving wise buying, sane spending, safe investment and avoid ance of waste, and to aid in featuring the advantage of Thrift Stamps and War Savings Stamps as the ideal in vestment for small savings. Through the American Council on Education, the presidents of the-institutions oi higher learning have been urged to name institutional thrift represents tives, who will co-operate with the lo cal savings organizations. This has been done in most cases. The educa tional institutions are expected to have a large influence in tfee move ment to make the United States' a nation of intelligent savers. WORLD'S HISTORY IN RE SUME PROVES W. S. & WILL PAY. One thing we know as we pursue the history of antiquity, from times when Noah was the news, of Baby lon's iniquity, down through the days when Caesar's ghost was , haunting Brutus in his bed, is this. The spenders shouted most, but nearly all of them were bled. Whereas the lad who never flung sesterces to the Forum crowd was never lmmaturely hng nor measured for an early shroud. This bit of ancient sophistry has now its modern counterpart, and more and more it's (borne on me how splendid is the saving art the art of mind ing one's affairs and watching little things increase. It rids the future of its cares, shows profit on our elbow grease. Today when W. S. 8. you read upon a hanging sign, you know the man sell Thrif tiness, a virtue oncer quite hard to find. I do not thank the war for much, but this I've learn ed, and learned it proper, when some one tries to make. "touch" a Thrift Stamp makes an A-l stopper. Watch your nickels and the dollars will take care of themselves. Small leaks sink big ships stop them with W. S. S. TABLE SHOWS HOW MONEY MULTIPLIES Trifle More Than One Hundred Dol lars Monthly for Eight Months Will Grow Into Thousand Dol lars by January 1, 1924. - The following table will be of serv ice to the individual Nvho plans to save systematically throughout the year by means of War Savings Stamps. The stamps draw four per cent interest compounded , quarterly. -Each 1919 War Savings Stamp was worth last January $4.12. Each stamp, because of the interest that is com- pounded, costs one cent more each r month, so that next January it will cost $4.24 and at the end of five years it will be worth $5. Thrift Stamps are of the denomi nation of 25 cents and are the means by which one may accumulate small savings until a sufficient amount is saved to purchase a War Savings Stamp. They are Invaluable for the thrifty saver who can lay aside only a small amount at a time. As soon as he accumulates sixteen Thrift Stamps he may exchange them for a War Savings Stamp by: paying the few" cents additional to make up the purchase price of a-War Savings Stamp for that month. , Thus if the thrift Stamp saver col lected his sixteen stamps in May, it then cost him 16 cents additional tc convert them Into one War: Savings Stamp. In June it costs 17 cents addi tional and so on, and then on January 1,-1924, less than five years after ths exchange, the War Savings Stamp will be worth $5 and the government will pay that amount for it . In the table below the second col umn.'shws that the person who in vests a little more than $100 a month for eight months of this year, wiL' have' paid in before January 1, 1920 $839. On January 1, 1924, this wil' have grown to $1,000. The other col umns show what the purchaser wil be required to invest to have $500, $250, $100 or $50 by January 1, 1924.
