Hand grenades made by the United

to .destruction ate now to be used to
boom thrift. Millions of the little ma-,
chines of destruction, with the explos
ives carefully removed, are to be
given to the school children of the
United States to encouraico the saving
habit, The grenades are being con
verted into miniature savings banks.
They will hold jennies and nickels
and dimes which can be converted
Into Thrift Stamps. The Thrift Stumps
In turn can be converted into War
Savings Stamps.
Distribution of the grenades in the
aeveraj re/km: !?' Reserve Districts will
be left in the hands of the district Sav
Ings Directors. In this district 'the
War Loan Organization, with head
quarters in Richmond. Va., has so rir

ranged that a grenade bank will be
awarded to each child, who, during
the vacation period, earns enough
money to buy a War Savings Stamp.
Some bank In every community will
lend each child a grepade and at the
close of the vacation period the child
will return it. with the money it con
tains. to tho bank. There the money
will be counted. If the child has
saved enough to buy a War {Savings
Stamp the grenade-bank will be his,
but in all events tho cash must b? In
vested in Thrift Stamps if not enough
has been saved to pay for a War Sav
ings Stamp. The grennde-bankfl are
of considerable value and will be
splendid souvenirs of the groat wa'r,

HOW SAVINGS HABIT
HELPS EVERYBODY
* ? ' i
Monoy Invested This Year In Thrift
Stamps Returns In Five Years
Vastly Increased.
On New Year's day 1923. there will
begin a Remarkable series of divi
dend payments to American people
Hundreds of nwllions of doUai'9 of
War Savings Stamps sold during 191 S
will then be redeemable. On oath
.News Year's day thereafter for a num
ber of years there will undoubtedly
be huge re turn 8 to the American poo. j
pie of the money borrowed with in
terest.
Those, great dividend days bring
American bankers new opportunities
and also responsibilities. Ho.w enn
new thrift habits be linked to thrift
institutions? How can this money
the product of thrift, be mobilized for
further work? t
Already . the bankers are wprking
with the Treasury Department to
contirne thrift habits. For people who
save money there is a wide range 01
thrift institutions thai will ' take
charge of funds, put them to work
safely, and return good earnings, as
:ho government plans to borrow by" ;
general education of thrift ,in every
kind,. so the banks and thrift institu- .
tions can aid the government by en
couraging general thrift and building
bigger business themselves.
One of the first steps to be taken by
jankers is that of spreading informa
tion about banks, life insurance, build
up; and loan associations, federal farm
loans, and all other thrift institutions. ?
The bent way to meet Tincle Sam's
'?ornowinfe needs is to promote thrift
< n the broadest possible lines.
Every dollar deposited in a savings
bank becomes available for national
finance. Every life insurance policy
sold is equivalent to an indirect loan,
to the government. Every obligation
assumed by thrifty people such as a
building mortgage is a stimulus to
production and saving, and therefore, i
as much a national service as the di
rect purchase of government securi
ties. In placing these matters clearly
before everybody in his community
the banker will live up to his opportu
nities and his responsibilities in the
new thrift movement. When the bil
lion dollar New Year Days arrive he
will he ready.
TELLS HOW SHE BUYS

is her system.
"The only way to save is to save.
When I ha vo actually saved a quarter
I put it into a Thrift Stamp without

HOW LAPLAND GOT IT3 I'iAME
Danish Chronicler of the Twclftn Cen
tury First Used Term "Li ppia,"
From Which It Is Derived.
The origin of the term "Lapp" Is ob
scure, according to "Through Lupiund
with .Skis and Helndeer," by Frank
Hedges ? Butler. The Swedish histori
an, Johannes Magnus, writing in the
sixteenth century, called the land Lap
pin. following Saxo Ornnnnuticus. the
twelfth century Danish chronicler.
Other writers called it by the Latin
ized name Lapponia. In the seven
teenth century the region was known
in England as Lapland, in Sweden as
Lapimirkia, mark being swedish for
land; in Denmark and Norway as Lup
Ir-ndia or Flndmarkia.
Several ingenious etymologies have
been suggested, both in ancient and
modern times. Some derive the name
from the Swedish Lapp,, rags, "from
their (the Laplanders) coming into
Swedeland every year with .rags lapt
about them" ojhers from the Swedish
laepa, to run or leap, from their skill
in sliding swiftly over the frozen snow
by means of skis.
Sheffer, the Swedish professor
whose "Lapponia" (1073) was trans
lated into English and published in
Oxford in 1074, wrote of the "art they
have by which with crooked pieces of
wood under their feet like a bow they
hunt wild beasts and glide along the
ground, not taking up one foot after
another as in common running but car
rying themselves steady upon the froz
en mow, they move forward, stooping
a little." Old historians often cnlled
Lapland "Scrldflnnla," derived from
"skrlda," which in Danish and Swed
ish means to slide.
