Yule Events
Presented
A Christmas Pageant, one in
a series of Advent events planned
Boyce Memorial ARP church.
Now all your
U.S. Savings Bonds pay
higher interest
sfjficsE
at
was presented 'Dec.
the evening service.
20th during
“The First Christmas”, written
by Adda Richter, was staged
and directed by 'Mr. Moffatt
Ware, Sr. The story was narra*
toti by Mrs. Elizabeth Anthony
and opened with the Annimcia-
Jtion to Mary (Mr. Kelly Bunch)
and Joseph (Bill Moas).
The shepherds were portrayed
by John L. McGill, Don Craw
ford, and Carl Fulton.
The visit of the Wise Men was
played by Garrison Goforth, Lar
ry Morrow, and Jimmy Owens.
I The parts of the Inn Keeper
i and King Hero^j were taken by
I 'Bob 'Moss anld Pat Cheshire,
1 respectively. Miss Beverly Lynch
1 and Miss Elizabeth McGill de
picted -the Angels.
The iMoravian Star which hung
over the manger, the organist,
Mr, Garrison Goforth, the choir,
the scenery and costumes all hel
ped to vividly portray The
First Christmas.”
Now it’s official.
Now one of the safest investments
in the world brings you new and
higher returns.
Now your U.S. Savings Bonds
pay the highest interest in history:
a full 5 per cent when held to
maturity of 5 years and 10 months.
(4% the first year; 5.20% thereafter
to maturity.) Previously, these Bonds
earned you only 4^y4% if you held
them for seven years.
The new interest began June 1,
1969. So all of the Bonds you own,
no matter when you bought them,
have been collecting higher interest
since that time.
Those Bonds are still replaced if
lost, stolen or burned.
,You can still buy tliem through
Payroll Savings or the Bond-a-Month
plan.
Regardless of your other invest
ments, can you think of any easier,
better, or safer way to build a nest
egg for yourself?
IPs nice to know that you are
doing a little something for Uncle
Sam, too. The $52 billion in U.S.
Savings Bonds now outstanding in
the hands of millions of Americans
go a long way toward keeping your
country financially strong.
There never was a better time
to take stock
America.
There’s a man at
the place where
you work who
can start you on
the Payroll Sav
ings Plan right now.
tn
Bonds are safe. If lost, stolen, or destroyed, we replace them.
Wlien needed, they can be cashed at your bank. Tax may be deferred
until redemption. And always remember. Bonds are a proud way to save.
Take stock in America.
With hkiher Doyina LLS. Savings Bonds.

WET BRAKES
In a driving rain or through low
spots on roads filled witli
water, brakes may easily be
come wet. When you push
down the brake pedal, you may
find no braking action at all.
Rather than have this happen,
anticipate brake trouble by try
ing your brakes periodically
when wet conditions exist or
you have just gone through
puddles or pools of water. Drive
slowly, pumping brakes firmly
and intermittently till they dry.
* AMdIICaN VimiAl.llAB t»*s
■ Right now hunidreds of Americans are
being held captive in North Vietnam.
A few prisoners have made it back. They
talk about bamboo cages. Vicious beatings.
Malnutrition. Humiliation.
But the North Vietnamese will tell us
nothing. And it’s this silence that makes our
appeal more urgent.
For the families at home, there is no
word on who’s alive. Who’s dead. Or even
who’s being held. There is nothing. Except
the anguish of not knowing.
Maybe you can change this. By writing
to the one man who cnti change it: The Presi
dent of North Vietnam.
Ask him to release the names of prison
ers, allow them to write to their families,
and let the Red Cross inspect the prisons to
insure proper medical treatment and living
conditions.
Remind him that he is bound by the
1949 Geneva Convention which his country
signed. And by the Istanbul resolution.
North Vietnamese leaders do care about
American public opinion. And if they think
they can gain something by bowing to it,
they will.
But one letter won’t do it. Or a thousand.
Maybe it will take millions. So we’ve got to
write now. All of us. And often.
Write a letter tpnight. And send it tO:
Office of the President, Democratic Repub
lic of Vietnam, Hanoi, North Vietnam.
It’ll cost you a quarter. But it might save
^ ^ THE AMERICAN RED CROSS ifr
open it
