Postmaster Allen Has Supplies For
 the Sale of Roth to Help War.

Postmaster R. s. Allen has re- ceived the supplies for the sale of the war savings stamps and the thrift stamps. The war savings stamps vary in price from S4.i2 to S4.23, according to the month in which purchased. The stamp, if held until maturity, January 1, 1923, will bear interest at the rate of 1 per cent per annum, compounded quarterly. Each certificate con- tains 20 spaces on which stamps are to be affixed, and when filled the certificate will be worth Si00 on January i, 1923. The thrift stamps do not bear interest, but when i6 of them, each valued at 25 cents, are affixed to a thrift card, the card may be surrendered for a War Saw ings Certificates, which will bear in terest.
