MRS. DELONA TAYLOR, 106
South Dalton, splicer: “It's a
good way to save money. If I
took that money home in my pay
envelope it would never be saved.
We plan to use our bonds to
send our daughter to college. My
advice to those not now buying
bonds is that they couldn’t make
a better investment.” Mrs.
Taylor’s husband is Second Hand
Claude Taylor of the Twisting
Department.
WILLIAM COSEY, 320 King
Street, speeder tender: “The
ibest way to save—get more for
your money. It's also the easiest
way to save, since the money is
taken out the painless way—be
fore you draw it. Patriotism and
thrift should be reasons enough
to make anyone want to buy
bonds,”
MRS, MAYBELLE KEISLER,
1113 West Third Ave., reclaim
er: “It sure comes in handy to
have some bonds saved up when
emergencies arise. It's about the
only way we can save anything.
If you don't draw, you don’t
miss it! Everybody ought to buy
bonds, if only to help them over
the tight spots.”
BELON HANNA, 314 South
Liberty, section man: “It’s as
good a way as I know of to save
money, and you’re helping the
government at the same time.
All employees ought to try to
save money this way, if for no
other reason to provide for emer
gencies when they arise.”
