fund, while others often tell for
what the money will be used. One
discharged man recently nlankprl
down a huge sum, with the remark,
i can t Duy a car now, so 1 11 salt
it away in bonds until I can get
the jitney I want."
Romance has also fnnnrl its wav
. .. t7
into the purchase of war bonds.
Some men show affprfinn hv pivina
their fair one flowers, while others
think candv is the hest mpans nf
creating an impression, but during
a recent war bond campaign, a
young man bought some bonds in
the name of his "best friend" and
gave them to her as token of his
esteem.
More men than women buv
bonds over the counter sn tn
speak, while women far exceed
men on the payroll deduction plan.
"Many people still don't under
stand what war bonds are " Miss
Jones said. "Seldom does a day
pass that some purchaser doesn't
try to give me the face value for a
Dona. Une woman last week could
not understand how she roulH huv
a $50 bond for less than $50. I
believe many people would have
paid face value for bonds, even
without the interest inducement of
almost 3 per cent."
Of the seven big war bond cam
paigns staged here, the one where
every man in service had his name
on a large bulletin board in the
bank, and as a bond was sold for
eaeh man was a star placed by his
name, brought the best results.
There was a rush of cashing
bonds right after V-J Day, but the
trend now is to buy more than to
cash them. Miss Jones sells con
siderably more bonds daily than
the redemption window cashes.
"It has been lots of fun, and
plenty of hard work, but I have
enjoyed it, and still enjoy ex
changing bonds for cash. There is
only one distinct disadvantage to
this business of selling bonds,"
said the young lady who has more
than 4'i millions in sales to her
credit, "and that is getting people
to tell you their name. The aver
age man will just say 'John.'
Then you ask what !? his middle
name, and he tells that. Then
tlree or four questions later, you
finally get the name of his wife,
or the co-owner. If people would
just open up and tell you their
full name, it would make this job
really a pleasure."
Miss Jones accompanied bond
committeemen on every drive in
every section of the county, carry
ing with her the bonds and her
typewriter. She has written bonds
in the theatre lobby, on the court
house porch, in schools, churches,
and at her desk at the bank.
She has never complained about
the long hours, and only once, dur
ing the fifth drive did she worry.
The fifth drive, if you recall, had
a high quota, and it was taking
lots of hard work to get the bonds
sold. Miss Jones went to a bond
rally every night in some rural
section, and as a rule, the com
munity chairman entertained with
the usual bountiful fried rhicknn
supper just before the rally. These
suppers every night were pleasant,
as well as delicious. The food was
hard to resist, but then there is the
danger of just over-doing, and that
is the only time that Miss Jones
failed to put on her pleasant smile
while working with her war bonds.
The end of World War II has had
little effect to date upon the con
tinuing high price of farm land.
