SEVEN REASONS FOR
SAVINGS.
^
There are seven good reasons
why the government has issued
War Savings Stamps:
1. Save for your country's
sake, because it is now spending
millions a day, and must find
moot of the money out of saving*.
V 2. Save for your own sake,
because work and wages are
^ plentiful and, while prices are
high now, a dollar wiH buy more
j after the war.
3. Save because, when yon
spend, you make other people
] work for you, and the work of
everyone is needed now to win
; the war.
i 4. Save because, by saving, you
make things cheaper for everyone,
especially for those who are
J poorer than you.
I 5. Save because, by going
{ without you relieve the strain
k on ships, docks, and railways,
ft * I and make transport cheaper and
I quicker.
P j . Save because, by saving,
! you set an example that makes
v j ft easier for the next man to
j save. A saving nation is am
{ earning nation.
\ 7. Save because every time I
Syott save yen help twice, fleet ]
. whet 70U don't spend, and again '
when yon lend to the nation.

HERE'S HOW
f There are many persons who
f\ hare an uncomfortable feeling
that they are not helping the
nation In this time of crisis.
They can not for various reasons
enter the military or naval
service of the country, or do
other work that would help the
government in prosecuting the
war against the Huns, aijd yet
they want to help. There is a
solution to this problem which
troubles many earnest patriots.
Those who invest in war savings
and war thrift stamps are
actively aiding the government.
^Thay are placing at the disposal
of the government not merely
money, but the goods and ser'
vices that the money can buy
and use in properly supplying
^ and equipping our army and
Iiivy. joining a w?r
Socitcy makes saying easy. The
r government pays interest at the
t rate of 4 per oeat, per annum,
cosn?&unded quarterly.
