SCHOOLS AM) THRIFT STAMPS. The public schools of the county art pushing the sale of the Thrift Stamp8 and are selling more than are necessary to receive the prize offered. Som* are organizing "War Savings Societies" making each pupil a member who has a thrift stamp. Tt is hoped that each school will have one o! _ < : i T<U Uiese SUl'iei i lie ii uaiccs u.m.( patrons too can and should becomc members. The rural letter carriers of the county are selling these stamps and will give the school district credit for the sale of them. They are the ones to buy them from as they can supply them each day in any denomination. Remember that while father and mother and Dig orotner are ouying I.ihery Bonds the Thrift Stamps bought in school by the child mean~ that Uncle Sam is made stronger by one more "torch of liberty." Teachers, trustees, and the mail carriers will report the amounts of sales from districts to Mr. Frank R. Hunter, who will see that the prize is forthcoming when your quota is sold. r> .
