other edibles, is being conducted to-
day in the Brooklyn district by the

THE THRIFT CAMPAIGN
(E,rom Saturiay's Daily)

(ErOm saturdays DHlly)
America Is learning many lessons
from the war. Among them none is
more important than the lesson OF
thrift, for upon that quality may be
built successful careers and the sue
cess OF peoples. y.
In the year since America went to
war she has achieved many changes.
A nation OF spendthrifts has been
brought face to face with the greatest
bill Of expenses the world has known.
We who talked but haltingly OF thou
sands q year or two ago, chatter now
of billions.
AS an entity the American public
has embarked on the greatest money
spending spree in world history. AS
individuals, that same public Is learn
ing the hard lesson of thrift
Hard, but, like every hard lesson.
full to the brim of benefits. Easy, II
we but follow the lines laid down by
the government. By trimming our
personal expenditures we save money
which we are able to lend the govern
ment at good rates Of interest, and
the sums thus poured into the public
treasury must buy for America vic
tory over Germanism. militarism, bar
barism, greed and inhumanity.
It is not O matter for individual
choice. 1t is a patriotic duty to keep
the nations war chest filled. We do
not consult our personal and selfish
wishes In obeying the rules OF food
conservation. No more have we q
right to permit personal and selfish
considerations to withhold from the
government any portion of that money
which 1t must have II the war is to
be won.
The third Liberty loan compaign
closes today. A new campaign fol-
the sale of War Savings stamps opens
Immediately. Participation In one Is
as much duty as participation In the
other. Many who cannot buy LIB
erty Bond can invest in War Savings
Stamps. All who can buy Liberty
Bonds can buy War Savings Stamps
also.
