HOW IT is DONE
War Savings and Thrift Stamps
How You Can Get Them-The
Safest and Best Investment


There are two kinds Of stamps:
s. War Savings Stamps and %
cent Thrift Stamps. These stamps
offer a most convenient means
for saving small amounts not in
hundreds of dollars but by So or
by 25 cents.
These stamps offer splendid
opportunity for children as we'll
as adult people to invest their
savings in absolute security and
at a good rate of interest
You may go to your local post
office, secure Thrift Card by
buying one or more 25-cent Thrift
Stamps and as fast as you are
able to do SO secure enough of
these 25-cent stamps to fill the
Thrift Card which contains six
teen spaces. You will then have
paid 81 and il you do this during
the month of January, you may
pay - cents additional and pro-
cure So War Savings Stamp to
affix to the War Savings Certifi-
cate which the postmaster will
give you. For each additional
month after January you will pay
one cent more for your War Saw
ings Certificate, and next Deem
her. the last month of the year.
your certificate will cost you
$4.23
The government will redeem
these War Savings Certificates
at the end of five years for So;
but if at any time you wish to
turn Il certificate into cash, you
may do SO at your pOstOffice and
you will also receive the interest
due you Oh the certificate at that
time. The War Savings Certifi-
Gates may be registered at the
postoffice and if lost after regis
tering the loss will be made good.
The Thrift Cards will have your
name written on them and if lost
you may be quite sure of their re-
turn to you by the finder as they
are of no value except to the owner.
Do not confuse the Thrift
Cards and the War Savings Ger
tificates. The Thrift Cards con-
tain the 25-cent stamps up to the
amount of 81 and the War Saw
ings Certificates contain the So
War Savings Stamps which you
receive in return for filled Thrift
Cards. There are spaces for 20
War Savings Stamps on each War
Savings Certificate, representing
a saving of 500 but costing in act
ual money great deal less than
that amount.
