The Chronicle hones to give a full j account of the proceedings in its next j issue. T1IE LITTLE THRIFTY." The little Savings Stamp has come i to stay and with it its larger brother, j the Savings Certificate. We welcome them and commend the Treasury Departnfent in its decision to continue the sale of these excellent and convenient securities. They are the poor man's investment and are destined to become more popular than during war days. They do good service in more ways than one. Pri. ? marily they are the effort of the Government to induce the Small investor to lend on the strongest security in the world, and secondarily they-encourage and make it convenient to that small Investor to thus lend. To our mind, however, one of the strongest reasons why the sale of the Savings Stamps should continue is the' fact that they make of every investor a booster for the United States. Give a man a stake in a concern and he wishes it wyell; he is a booster for it j Let a man own a home in the town ' and the interests of that town are his; I . he will work for the town. That's | only human and in the present state of society it is perfectly natural and proper. The man who owns a stake in town or country is prepared to imake sacrificed for that town or country. For this reason the little "Thrifty" is one of the most power ful foes of Bolshevism or anv other (Ciscontent madness. The "Thrifty" makes a man a partner in the flnm of Uncle Sam & Company. "We've got to borrow more money to meet our obligation," said Secretary Glass. To get that money we must sell more Saving Stamps and Certificates." Go to it, Mr. Glass. We can use those little "Thriftles" and our Uncle Samuel can use our dimes and dollars. (Advertising \ in this paper will bring 1 good returns on the I money invested A* J * ft,.. . & ^'-^v vv.*- .

D. SOMETHING FOR NOTHING. yo YEL Human nature is pretty much alike wherever you find it. And in Cheraw the same as elsewhere we find imany p people hunting something for nothing. They do this despite the fact that thousands upon thousands before them have learned that it is inipos- . sible to get it. We may not think we Jn lie are paying at the time we get it?but in the long run we find we have to nv settle, and ns a rule that thing that appeared to 1?e ' free" proved more costly than if bought outright. We read the other dav where a man i Pi who has made a fortune.l.v selling j through the mails said ln? always put ; * the word "free" in his ads. and always made the word the biggest of ^ * j | i. all. He said people as a general rule will read an ad. that has a big. blaelt- j so lettered "free" in it quicker than tlmy j '):i will read any other kind. , And he |r" said that the one little word leading people to think they were going to j sU get something for nothing, had really Ui made him rich. You can't beat it. no matter how hard you try, and the quicker you realize it the better. The mail o'dei* houses are not putting the word "free" atl in their ads just because they are so c0 big-hearted they actully have some- j ,ia thing to make you a present of. You ! be are going to pay for it In the long run. You are going to find that the very of thing you thought was "frje* fc the se asking cost you twice what the same thing could have been "^ured for re here at holme.
