I WISELY FEAT -? * T > jf" ? SOLVING WAR PROBLEMS I TAUtiHl mm IHKIf i Country Urged to Keep Benefits Gained Through Lesson of Saving Learned Last Year. Fellowship in the fastest growing society in the United States is open to everybody. In every state in the union it is gaining members daily, since it is a society in which the good of the country is served as well as that of the individual. From all walks of life its millions of over increasing members come. Ne one can be a member and keep the pledge ha takes without receiving lasting benefits and aiding the United States of America to maintain the proud place it has already attained? the peer of any nation that has ever existed. When the. treasury department of the United States began the attempt te solve the financial problems that beset the country as it was entering the war, the United States was a debtor nation. Only on understanding that it is the greatest creditor nation in the world today can one realize what an achievement has been won. With> out a direct tax on the people money I -a ... ik. <...? Has Deen raisea iu pay iui me suecessful termination of the war, and , - this cost more than $20,000,000,000. Beside this enormous amount of money there is now more money in the hanks than before. This, of course, was done through the Liberty Loans, principally. But these leans have ceased, and those at the head of the nation's finances are seeking to clinch the lesson already learned, and are urging the permanent establishment of War Savings Societies. The Treasury "Department is doing a service for the small investor in accepting so small an amount as twentyfive cents and giving the same security that the holder of a $10,000 Liberty Bond enjoys?the entire resources of the United States of America. Could anything be more safe? CAN CHOP OVERHEAD We joined with glee to celebrate the Mrthday anniversary of Wash ington, who, when a boy, chopped down his father's cherry tree, and v later, though but still a youth, surveyed the trackless forest waste, and always practiced simple truth hi every project he embraced. Then when the Revolution broke out George stepped bravely to the fore and threw aside our foreign yoke, and saw us safely through the war. No adjectival flourish here could tell M. full his epic life, but this we know and hold it dear, he won our nation's primal strife; he fought, he built, he sagely taught, he loved this land of liberty, and what his sacrifice then bought is handed on to you and me. To him we owe undying debt to keep Our nation's lo?or bright and emulate him so that yet we travel holding Freedom's light; we cannot all chop iherry bark, but we can chop the 'overhead," and, cutting out some lostly lark, buy W. S. S. instead. A thrifty man is safe from worry. Buy wisely, save intelligently, and invest in Thrift and War Savings Stamps.

HERED NESTS 2 SAID EVERY SOLDIER KEPT TRENCH SHOVE Engineer After Viewing Battlefield Makes Interesting Commentary ?Could Fi?d Everything But One Trophy He Wanted/ An eminent engineer recently returned to Washington after traversing r\Tt irnvarnment hllciriARS mi]p.h of th& western front. He went over the battle area before the army salvage corps had removed the signs of conflict. "I saw pretty nearly everything there," he said. "Lots of rifles, bayonets, machine guns, helmets, soldiers' packs, water bottles, and even handkerchiefs and socks all over the ground. "I didn't want any of them. Because I'm an engineer, I'd set my heart on a trench shovel. I'd seen thousands of them back of the lines, but I wanted one from the battlefield. I looked and looked, without finding one lying around loose. Wherever there was a shovel, the man who'd used it was lying beside it. J "Then I understood. The soldier, dislodged from a position, might loose his pack, his extra clothing, even his rifle, in his escape, but he never let go his shovel. "He knew he had to have it, to dig himself in again." War Savings Stamps are trench shovels for digging in against, adversity. |j ' CARRY ON! I Uncle Sam is releasing from his service the men who went "over there" to free the world from autocracy. Thousands of soldiers are daily receiving their honorable diecharges; they pocket their pay, bid farewell to their comrades and sally forth?civilians. There is one army, however, which must not be demobilised. That is the army of War Savings Stamps buyers. More recruits are : needed to carry on the campaign of readjustment which follows the | signing of the armistice. The army of fighters has achieved its purpose. The army of savers must remain J in "action." ' "Carry on" to a lasting peace under the banner of W. S. 8. ! ' WORLD'S GREATEST POWER. v? I am the World's Greatest Power.
