IN OFFERING ff^ar Savings Stamps and Thrift
Stamps to the public, the United States Government
presents to every man, woman and child an oppor
tunity for profitable, simple and secure investment.
War Savings Stamps are "BUby Bonds." Back of
them are the entire resources of the Government and
people of the United States. They enable you to
invest your surplus savings in Government Securities
paying equivalent to 4#> compounded quarterly.
You need not begin with a large amount. You
can buy U. S. Government Thrift Stamps at 25c
each. When you buy your first Thrift Stamp, you
will be given a Thrift Card. Each Thrift Card has
spaces for 16 stamps. Wlien you have filled a Thrift
Card it may be exchanged for a $5.00 Wiar Savings
Stamp at any Postoffice, Bank or other authorized
agency, by adding 17 cents in cash if exchanged prior to
July 1st, 1918, and lc additional each month
thereafter. Thus a $5.00 War Savings Stamp will
? ? have cost you $4.17 (if purchased before July
1st. 1918). On January 1st, 1923, the United States
Government will pay you $5.00 for each War Savings
Sta mp you own. (Under the law no person may hold
such stamps in excess of $1,000 maturity value).
If you prefer you may buy the $5.00 War Sav
ings Stamps outright. When you buy your first
War Savings Stamp, you will be given a War Savings .
Certificate. This has spaces for 20 stamps. Thus,
when full, the certificate will have -a cash value of
$100.00 on January 1st, 1923.
The interest ^paid you on War Savings Stamps is
equivalent to 4% compounded quarterly, if you keep
your stamps for 5 years. If you should need this
money before Jan. 1st, 1923, you carrget it back oil
ten days' written notice with interest at approximately
3%, by presenting your War Savings Certificate, witn
stamps; attached, at a Money Order Postoffice.
? The 25 cent Thrift Stamps, however, are not re
deemable except in exchange for W ar Savings Stamps.
It is the desire of the Treasury Department of the
United States to have every man, woman and child
participate in the War Savings Plan by buying
Thrift Stamps and War Savings Stamps regularly.
