' To encourage the regular saving of small sums the government will issue throughout 1921 two new savings se-. curlties. One will be a special $1.00 treasury savings stamp. While, this Is not Interest-bearing, four of these stamps plus a small additional amount in cash, may be exchanged for an interest-bearing $1.00 war savings stamp. The other hew security m a $25 treas ury savings certificate. This, like the war savings stamp and like other treasury certificates, will bear Interest at the rate of 4 per cent a year, com pounded quarterly, if held until matur ity. As in the past, all government savings securities, it is announced; may be had from postoffices or through banks. - " ' -. ...': O -V: n-n- 1 1 II ' Life if ( AH'" the' poultry in. the United States is worth more than half a billion dollars.

"'' ' . - FOR EVERY DOLLAR raised in America, two dollars will be furnished in transportation, local food supplies and labor by the government and local communities of the country receiving aid. Look out of your .office window into the busy thoroughfare or out from your home into the quiet streets. If you could see marching there, before your eyes, even three thousand five hundred, on their way to death unless you, and your town, raised at once thirty-five thousand dollars to save them, it would not take a single hour to raise the money every dollar of it, over and ove again if necessary, to save these precious lives. Nothing would be held back, in hpraes, or banks, or f ac- .' tories. And exactly such a march of little children to death, multiplied a thousand times, is now . , going on in Central and Southeastern Europe. , Rich and poor are "casting their gifts into the treasury," as they did on that day, nearly two .thousand years ago, when Jesus was watching. He is watching again today, and He knows the 1 degree ,of love and sacrifice the gifts, large and small express. Many, "from their penury," are . giving until it hurts. The following are typical: "I am a coal miner, 73 years of age. I work six days every week and pump water out of the f mine oh Sunday. I enclose $10 in-currency, and will scratch up another, I trust, very soon." E. J., Illinois. "I have had twelve long years of sickness in my family and it has taken at times more than my salary to meet expenses, but want to help even if it pinches. Enclosed $20. Hope to send more , "later." W. H. Y., New Jersey. "The $90 enclosed in a collection made up by the staff and patients in this institution, all suffer ing from pulmonary tuberculosis even the members of the staff have had it. A great many of the v patients are not able to pay their own board and treatment and this sum represents a sacrifice on their part to help the suffering children. Dr. E. W. G., Supt., Georgia. "The enclosed $9 represents an entire week's earnings of a colored washerwoman who wants to help feed the hungry children." "Words fail to express the emotions with which I send you this letter. I am a poor workingman living by my daily wage. Lam enclosing my tithing money consecrated to the Lord's work." S. A. E., Delaware. One letter from Los Angeles, enclosing, a gift, reminds us that "when Jesus said of such is the Kingdom of Heaven,' He seemed to be spe&king of a kingdom on earth. It will be sad if our apathy " makes it a kingdom to be entered only by? the dead." One hundred cents of every dollar, you contribute goes direct to the cause no deduction for ex penses.
