Life Insurance Company
Makes Gratifying Showing

The stockholders of the Shen.
audoah Life Insurance Company
Of Roanoke, met in Woodstock
on Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Owing to the bad weather and
almost impossible roads only
about fifty stockholders were
present, but those who attended
the meeting were highly pleased
with the progress of the COM
pauy and the management of its
affairs.
The report of W. l.. Andrews,
secretary-treasurer, shows that
after twenty-three months OF
business, closing December 81,
1917, the company had in force
over three million dollars worth
of insurance, and January, Feb
ruary and March have been
record months.
This is quite a remarkable
record for a life insurance con-
Germ and the stockholders
throughout this section are en-
thusiastic over the future pros
poets of their company.

UNIQUE PASTIN|E
EVOLVED BY GIRL
Clever Richmond Lassie Invents New
Game That Fasclnates And
Brings Her Big Finan-
ciaI Returns.

The recent story of the Richmond
girl, who is teaching her sweetheart
thrift and aiding her country at the
same time that she is laying the foun-
dalton FOR her own future happiness,
has brought to light the interesting
experience of another girl who is fol-
lowing somewhat different course
to the same end. She has made saw
ing g game that Is proving as fascinat-
ing as 1t is novel and already she is
able to see the practical benefits from
the experiment.
Until recently she had never been
able to save consistently and 1t was
only after some hard thinking that
she hit upon the plan of taxing all OF
her expenditures upon sliding scale.
This scale fixes five per cent. tax
on clothing; a ten per cent. tax on
articles Of luxury, such as feathers,
wells, silk stockings and other frills
and furbelows; and twenty-five per
cent. tax on other Injuries, such as
matinees, concerts, books, candies,
drinks, etc.
She keeps her daily taxes in a
separate compartment of her purse
along with a Government Thrift Card
and as soon as she has sufficient to
! buy a Thrift Stamp does SO and sticks
{ it upon her card. She began the
practice soon after the Inauguration
! of the War Savings Campaign, and
| already is working on her fifth card.
| The game has proved most fascinat'
| ing one, and she has been surprised
! at the way the small taxes mount
upward. BY stinting herself slightly
especially during the time when all
| luxuries are so high-priced, and when
| so little can be secured from the out
| lay, she hopes to save sufficient to
| purchase the maximum War Savings
| Certificates permitted by the Govern
| ment
| This young woman realizes that
| every penny so invested is bringing
her interest at the rate of four pei
cent, compounded quarterly, and thai
| she can secure her money at any time
| It is needed by giving ten days no
tice to her postmaster.
| Ambitious girls throughout Virgins
| are adopting similar Thrift Plans ant
not only are reaping financial benefits
from them but also are paving thu
way for future accomplishments ant
! at the same time are giving thu
! greatest possible aid to the Govern
/ ment. The purchase Of the Thrift
Stamp is the best way to begin, al
though that can be improved by max
ing the first purchase today.
