Q. 'Do the: retail stores receive any fee or percentage for tile
sale of Stamps?
A. No. The retail stores are offering their facilities as a
patriotic service, just as hanks, savings and loan associa
tions, and others are giving their help in the safe* of Defense
Bonds.
Q. How can I form the thrift habit necessary for me! to buy
many Defense Bonds now, to help the Government?
A. The easiest way is to instruct your employer or banker to
hold back a small fraction of your salary or other in
come. Even 10 cents a day and a dollar on your birthday
will amount up in one year to $37.50, the purchase price of
a $50 Defense Bond. Bigger savings buy bigger bonds.
Note.—To buy Defense Bonds and Stamps, go to the nearest
post office, bank, or savings and loan association; or write
to the Treasurer of the United States, Washington, D.
Also Stamps now are on sale at retail stores,
