SCHOOL SAVERS ARK j DOING SPLENDID WORK IN THRIFT CAMPAIGN MANY SOCIETIES FORMED AND MEMBERS ARE NOW BUSILY WATCHING THEIR MOriEY GROW Teachers and children are enthusiastic over the new thrift spirit iu llie school room, which has already resulted not only in giving a novel and practical interest to time honored subjects, bui in tne organization of ap proximately 11,000 school savings clubs in the schools jl this district. Last year the gross s*ies oi Thrift and War Savings Stamps and Treasury 1 Savings Certificates in the fifth district amounted to more than (2.315,000 during the school session, and it is hoped that when the figures are compiled for the 1920-1921 session, an even better record will be shown. Thousands of penny and nickel savings books, text leaflets in thrift and wall charts for showing the records of savings clubs have been mailed out to schools ;csklng for them. Boys and girls are learning to put their money into government savings securities instead of wasting it, and in order that they may not look upon savings as an end in itself, and gain a fal3e conception of thrift as a form of stinginess, tney are eneouraged to save tor some definite, worth-while object such, for instance, as a college education or business capital. Saving is only a third of the game, however, for the youngsters earn much of the money they save and invest in Thrift and Savings Stamps. Weeding tobacco, running errands, clerking in stores, washing dishes, raising vegetables and live stock are some of the callings in wliicn >chool savings club members en cage during summer vacations and after school hours, and keen is the rivalry among them. Even the smallest tots are taking an active part In the "Barn and Save" movement, and patriotic teachers who understand the value of thrift as an element of good citizenship are devoting their time and thought to making it part of their educational work, and art also encouraging the organization of saving* clubs by the children themselves. They realize that they are rendering a real service to the country by teaching sound economic thought, practical patriotism and prosperity. GIVING SPLENDID AID Postmasters are giving splendid co-operation in the effort to create new capital by increasing the number of investors in governmnent villus sptMiritioR AnnrnvimatpK 300,000 letters have been distributed by them since the middle of February to patrons of their offices, through post office boxes or by means of the regular carriers, call ing attention to the fact that the man who saves even a dollar out of his income has to that extent become a capitalist, and to the absolute safety of government securities as investments for such savings. The postmasters are to be congratulated not only for helping to finance the government but for making their influence felt In behalf of the welfare of their own communities. Distribution of these letters means that the benefits of saving and sound investment have been brought directly to the attention of thousands of persons in Maryland, the District of Columbia, West Virginia, Virginia and the two Carolinas. ! !
