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.

A technical education is 1 Sie host

earning capacity, it may equal an

are the positions of poverty
and obscurity.
Times are hard in South Carolina,
but the cost of ai. education
at Clemson College is compartively
low?sufficiently low to be within
the reach of any ambitious young
man in South Carolina.
Scholarships, free tuition and
the payment by the United States

still further reduce the cost.
