Making money and saving it is bo
coming no less popular among North
Carolina school children than among
grown-ups. More popular, perhaps,
than the time honored study of read
ing, writing and arithmetic ia the new
study of thrift which is being incorp
orated into the regular work of the
■chools. The subject is taught in con
coction with tho "Text Books of
Thrift" which are sent without charge
to any teaehor desiring them by the
War Loan Organisation of the Fifth
Federal Reserve District.
Judging by reports, the school
•blldren of North Carolina are going
the teaching of thrift one better. Al
ready a great many savings societies
have been organized in the schools
of this state, and the pupils here and
all over the district as well are buay
devising ways of earning money In
order that it may be wisely Invested
in Thrift Stamps and War Savings
Stamps.
la Thrifty Youngster.
In one of the schools in this dis
trict there Is a youngster who has
laid the foundation of a prosperous
eareer by plowing and bj selling
vegetables. When all the work was
done the lad counted the money he
had put in hank. He found that it
amounted to just twenty-fire dollors.
Many of the world's richest men be
gan life with less than twenty-Are
dollars. But they saved their money
and invested it wisely, thus assuring
success.
In one of ths 3-A grades, so a teach
er reports, one of the girls has earned
no less than twenty dollars by help
ing around the houss, while members
o{ a savings society that flourishes
In a 1-A grade have made about
twenty-five dollars doing such odd
Jobs as feeding the chickens, tying
tobacco and chopping crass.
Several boys who are members of
savings societies which are particu
larly active have bought clothes with
money they earned in similar ways.
One little fellow did so well helping
his father that he was paid ten dol
lars. As he received the money he
bought Thrift Stamps, showing that
he already knew how %e save and in
vest what he made,
Pepalar aaseag these small invest
ors are the Penny and Nickel Sav
ings Books issued te all school pupils
desiring them. In the days when, to
many tots, the price of even a Thrift
Stamp, may he too huge to ee gotten
together all at once, and when one
Just must buy an occasional all-dav
sucker of a eent-apiece bite of candy,
lots of youngsters think It wise to
save a penny er a nickle at a time.
The ooln is deposited with the teach
er for safe keeping, and she stamps
the savings cards to show how much
the child has put in his account.
When the total Is large enough, it
goes into the purchase of a whole

PILE UP YOUR DOLLARS SO THAT
NO ONE CAN KNOCK
THEM DOWN.
Many a tlrsd lad has slipped his
joat cm when the whistle blew and
•aid derisively: "Another day, anoth
erdollar. A million days, a million*
aire." He has said a mouthful in bit
ter jeet and without knowing it. For

Some financial sharpshooter to al
ways gunning tor dollars. They can
pick them off at a mile like Annie
Oakley cracking elay pipes In a shoot
ing gallery. But If you put some of
your dollars under cover before any
one can draw a bead on them, you
leave a slim score for the profiteer
and the grafter.
The safest protection from those
sharpshooters Is War Savings Stampe
bought every pay-day. If you give
them your whole bank roll to shoot
at they will hit it for a perfect score.
Make them waste a little ammunition.
War Savings Stamps are absolute
ly safe. They pay a high rate of in
terest and yom can get your money
In full when you need it. When they
pile up, nobody can knock the stack
