ARMY OF YOUNGSTERS [
MARCHING RAPIDLY ON
With Reopening Of School, Boys And .
Girls Renew Their Efforts T?
Win Commissions.
Y Left! Right! l?ft! Right! Left!
Forward?March!
With the reopening of schools, Uncle
Sam's Army of Savers has stepped out
to make new records for Itself, and
to enlist boys and girls who have not '
yet become members in tbe ranks of ,
this wide-awake organization. Will it I
keep up the snappy pace with which it
started last April? Many members
t -hare marched right on through vaca-tion,
and their example, together with
that of an inspiring beginning, indi- '
cate that the motto will be "let's go!"j
A feature of the school savings move-1
ment developed exclusively in this j
.? federal reserve district, Uncle Sam's
Army of Savers was organized lust
spring, with youthful "officers" and
"privates" whose insignia buttons and
"'commissions" were awarded by th-j
Savings Division of the Treasury Department.
Membership in the Army
may be obtained by Investment in one
25-cent Thrift Stamp, and future promotions
in rank depend upon the number
of additional stamps bought. The
fact that before last session closed
twenty-five General's "commissions"
and buttons were awarded in this district
to children owning 20 War Savings
Stamps each, indicates the rapidity
with which promotions are being
earned, as this is the highest rank
. Summer banks are being opened, and
summer savings counted with an eye
to the coveted promotion they will
V bring?the Lieutenant's or it may be
me tapiams uutton tUat will be
awarded In recognition of patriotic
service rendered through the purchase
'of savings securities. These banks
.wore distributed at the beginning of
vacation to members of Uncle Sam's
.Army of Savers desiring to save money
during the summer In order to wId
promotions.
Tbo activities of Uncle Sam's Army
of Savers will be promoted to round
out the thrift instruction to be given
,ln the majority of schools in the dis
Itrlot. Boys and girls -will learn the
principles and theory of thrift in their
classrooms, and will then be encour
aged to put what they have learned
;into practice by earning money and
investing the right proportion of it in
'safe, interest-bearing government se
'curities.
i
MONEY GROWS FAST AT
j COMPOUNDED INTEREST
Now Possible Fop Everyone To Invest
j In Securities Guaranteed By The
Treasury Department.
(
j Government Savings Securities, whiql
jmay be had at nearly all post offices j
jwere issued to encourage regular sav i
ling and wise Investment. Many mil \
'lions of dollars In the United States
Jhave been put into these securities
<and, as a result, tens of thousands oi
(people have the satisfaction of know
ing how steadily money Increases at );
per cent ^V'terest compounded quar '
terly.
' The fundamental characteristics ol
Government Savings Securities arc
'that they are safe beyond question
easily convertible into money, and not
'subject to market fluctuations. Such;
merits give these securities a distinctive
investment value.
The securities are safe because they
are guaranteed by the United States
. Treasury Department. They are easily
convertible into cash, because they
may be redeemed at local post offices
or from the Treasury Department at
Washington, and they are not subject
to market fluctuations because the
Treasury guarantees the price, which
increases by a fixed amount?In the
case of the interest-bearing securities
?every month.
There are three kinds of Govern
ment Savings Securities: The 25-cent'
Thrift Stamp and the $1 Treasury Sav-1
/ ing Stamp?neither bearing interest; i
the Interesting-bearing War Saving
Stamp, and the Interest-bearing $25,
$100 and $1,000 Treasury Savings Certificates.
The 25-cent Thrift Stamps and the;
$1 Treasury Savings Stamps are is- i
sued to help people save enough to
buy War Savings Stamps,, and these |
latter, when enough have been bought,'
may be converted into registered!
Treasury Savings Certificates.
The $5 War Savings Stamps cost
from $4.12 in January to $4.23 In Do I
cember, increasing in value one cert
each month. The value of the $25
Treasury Savings Certificate increases
five cents a month, that of the $100
certificates twenty cents a month, that
of the $1,000 certificates $2 a month^
Like War Savings Stamps the certir
. icates are redeemable at their full
w face value upon maturity; that is in
k five years from the year of purchase.
WHY ARE MOLES BLIND?
They Have No Eyes.
Are You Using Your Eyes
Or Are You Blind To
The Advantage Offered
Buy Government Savings Securities?
They Pay Good Interest
And You Save.

Milk tlie Food for Adults.
Dr. E. V. McCallum of John Hopkins
University, says:
"Milk is our greatest protective
food and its use must be increased
instead of diminished. The liberal use
of milk has made us what we are. No
family has the right to purchase any
meat until each member has at least
a pint of milk daily and this I regard
as below the optimum. Milk is
just as necessary for the maintenance
of health in the adult as in the young.
I have sought in vain for several
years for a diet which was not only
of a character which could support
growth in a young animal, but which
would maintain an adult in a state of
health over a prolonged period.
I am convinced that we should adhere
throughout life to such diets as
will induce normal growth in a child
of three to five years, if we would
maintain the highest state of physical
well being of which we are capable.
Let me request in closing that
the dairy Industry has made us what
we are, and that any further reduction
in our composition of milk and
its products, will be reflected in a
lowering of our standards of public
health and efficiency.
o
Election of Class Officers.
The young men of Berean Bible
Class of the First Baptist church will
elect officers next Sunday a. m. at

members of the class please keep this
in mind and be present, also bring
