INVEST YOUR MONEY IN
WAR SAVINGS STAMPS

When economists solemnly assured
us five years ago that the world
ould never be able 10 carry on fl
nancially bic scale war for more
than six months, we believed them
We. like most of the other wise ones,
above mentioned. had never heard
OF Emil Schneider, of Wurtemburg,
Germany. destined to confound all
of our wise men
In the meantime Emil Schneider
went 10 the front when the Kaiser
started his German army out to steal
The world and finally gave his life
for his King and Country at Chat
can Thierry
On the body of soldier. Emil
Schneider. was found a war savings
stamp card, of much the same de-
spaces being filled with stamps of
one mark face value each. These
stamps probably cost him eight or
nine marks each. Eight or nine
p,arks, the equivalent of four dol
lars-not a large item in the pay of
an American private who draws at
least $50 per month. They are
much smaller item in the buget of
civilian America.
But they were BIG portion of
the pay of Emil Schneider whose
wage as a private soldier was but
very few pennies Fer dag. Never
theless. denying himself the few ex-
tras and comforts he might nave
bought himself with those four
parks. Schneider and millions of his
companions in arms turned over
most of their pitifully poor pay to
swell the country's war funds.
Ii is this spirit of relentless self
denial that has enabled Germany to
raise twenty billions of dollars In
its war loans, though its total wealth
is estimated at only eighty billions
and maintain its armies against the
Allied nations of enormously greater
resources
If YOU have not cut of every lin-
nacessary drain en- your resources,
do SO today and increase your thrift

Dear Readers;
1t has long been the custom OF
the Senior class OF Grants Pass High
School, to publish an annual period
ical, known as the Toka.
The purpose OF the edition was to
bring before the eyes OF the citizens
OF Grants Pass and other interested
parties, the activities, principles. and
all inside items pertaining to high
school life. which is more or less In
teresting to various members OF the
community.
Also the work required In tn,
publication OF such an annual was
found to be extremely beneficial. II
brought out talent that otherwise
might have remained unearthed
and In dong this afforded an excel
lent opportunity for the execution
OF such talent.
