The Ideal Gift
Is A U. S.
Savings Bond
•When 70a mate op your
Christmas gift list, don't over
look U. S. Savings Bands.
They are better than ever
this year." That's the opinion
'of Knox Johnstone, Da
vie County Volunteer Chair
man.
"Savings Bonds n am pay
interest at the rate of 4.15
percent when they are held
to maturity and they ma
ture in just seven years," Mr.
Johnstone pointed out.
"I can't think of a better
gift for our loved ones," he
said "Not only do Bonds
'keep on giving* over the
years, but they help support
our men fighting In Viet
nam."
"When you buy bonds," lir.
Johnstone added, "you also
solve your gift-wrap prob
lem. Attractive gift envelopes
are again available at our
bank. They are easy to mail,
end can be slipped into a
Christmas card envelope or
tucked into a Christmas stock
ing."
Mr. Johnstone is President,
Bank of Davie.
Library News
It is time now, if you have
not done so, to arrange for
material for your Christmas
program at the Davie Coun

| pecially true of ordering the
16 mm. films you want, and
booking them and the pro
jector for required dates.
The library has seven Christ
mas film strips in the library
ready for your use during the
Christmas season, so book
them early to avoid disap

enjoy both of these.
Richer than Spices, by Ger
trude Thomas will be Mrs.
Knox Johnstone's subject on
Radio Station WDSL's libra
ry program, Friday, Novem
ber 18th, 10:30 A. M. This
