WAR SAVING STAMPS

The Nome public appears to be much interested in the War Saving Certificate Stamps and Thrift Stamps, judging by the numerous inquiries reaching this afIicc, but, owing to the limited dissemination of news in this remote section, very few appear to understand the nature of the stamps or the purpose for which they arc in tended. Hence we offer the following explanation, gathered from recent issue of the Official Bulletin.
 The purpose of the government in issuing the Wl,r Savings Certificates aud Thrift Stamps is dual, to provide additional funds for the maintenance of the government during the present crisis anu also to induce a spirit of saving among the masses of the peo- plc.. There arc millions of people in the United States who would like to assist the government in raising the immense sums required to meet the
  costs of conducting the war but, ow- ing to limited income. are unable to purchase Liberty Bonds and other in- tercst bearing certificates Among the masses of the people there are comparatively few who can afford to in- vest fifty or hundred dollars at one time on the contrary there are many millions who would gladly give saw ings of five or ten dollars or more 10 assist the government And it is to reach this vast mass and enable tnet.l to lend their surplus money to the government that the War Saving cc" tifIcatos and Thrift Stamps have hccl devised Through the medium ui { two forms of government loan certifi- cates, the person who has no more than twenty five cents to offer can do his bit toward helping the nation thru it's time of trial. According to the cx- nlanation given in the government journal referred to- under the term of an amendment to the Postal Laws, the Secretary of the Treasury is author ized to borrow from time to time cn the credit of the United States and
