SUGGESTIONS TO ORGANIZERS
If the War Savings Manual bothers
you or your members, appearing too
technical, throw it away-forget it.
Catch the spirit. The Government re-
quires this mobilization Of citizens in
their neighborhoods, just as it does the
notifications Of soldiers into compa
MES.
Don't worry about keeping any books
or having to sell any stamps. The post
offices, the banks, the stores, the
schools, the boy scouts, and other selling
agencies will take care Of this problem
in st. Mary. Your problem is to get
the pledge signed and report your or
ganization. Trust to the patriotism Of
your membership to keep their pledges.
Over 80 per cent will and the balance
vii do far more on account of having
taken the pledge, even though it be not
kept absolutely.
The War Savings Campaign is Educa
tional, arousing through appeals to the
patriotism Of the citizens a realization
Of the necessity Of savings by reduced
expenditures and lending the savings to
the Government to help finance the
war.
The Secretaries of these Societies will
be like corporals Of mighty army-it
will be an educational army. The Reg
istrants, holding the Governor Com
mission should not lose this opportu-
nifty to make good on her pledge to do
"War Work. when she accepted the
Governor S commission This organization
is War work. The entire organization
response to this by the Registrants
summon or another lady will be asked to
volunteer and go on with the work that
she leaves undore.
WHAT ARE THESE SOCIETIES
EXPECTED TO DO AFTER
ORGANIZATIONS
Hold meetings. Not unless they want
to. All that is expected right now is
for these societies to organize as nuick-
" as possible and report organization.
Let the individual members attend to
their own buying War Stamps Securi-
ties within the year, the average Of %
cents per week.
The Secretary will commence to re-
ceive direct from Washington War
N ws. She will become focus Of Edu
cation along War Lines. All War ac-
tivities appertaning to the mobilization
of the Nation for War purposes will be
handled through the officers Of these
Societies. Work. no, not any more than
talking over the War news in their own
homes and that of their neighbors Jim
mediate) just as all Of us now do daily
concerning other news or interesting
matters.
When 500 societies have been mobil-
lied in st. Mary. a war activity can be
handled within "a hours, uniformly all
over the Parish-the homes banded to-
eether in small groups for war work and
doing team work-that is the ultimate
aim Of this formation Of societies. Don t
let your home stay out Of society.
Supplies for organization Of W. 8.
Society can be obtained from the Local
chairman to w. G. N. D. or the Parish
Director War Savings.
