ONE MORE BIG BUYER LISTED
several More War Savings Societies
send I'm Their Papers-The Many
Must Work Like the Few to Move
Us UP.
Add to Big Buyers:

Auu 10 Big Buyers:
Mrs. Honor L. Phillips :. $500. .O(
Now, does not that look nice? Doe.
not that show that here is a Sumter
lady who is willing to loan some
money to the government, and at the
same time is putting up a nice saving
| to be cashed in January 1st, 1928. Dc
you know how much that cost her
The cost was $4.15 for 100 stamps
$4,000. OF course if you take SAFE
and lend it out now at seven per cent
and keep it loaned all the time till
January 1st, 1928, and the investmen,
does not go back on you it will net
more than this will. But
There are heap of ifs in that, and
you do not benefit the government one
bit. Each Of us have to help. You
have to.
There are more Big Buyers. We
want to list every one that buys from
500 up. Speak out.
II the many would work like the
few would not Sumter County boom.
II all our citizens took up the War
savings work like the school children
and the ladies have, would not Sum-
ter be at the top of the column Just
ike baseball pennant in some 9TH
rtown than Columbia. If the men
would save what they spend in in
dulgences and pleasures as the women
are saving would not we have a lot of
Tip Toppers? If we will do what we
can do would not we do lot.

Bro. are two country merchant firms
that have recently taken out agencies.
There are more country merchants

they buy them more when they see
them. The colored people in the
neighborhood of Mr.. Wash Mahoney
have formed war savings society.
and Mr.. Mahoney has bought stamps
