To The Boys and Girls

With the coming of Spring comes
better opportunities for boys and
girls to earn Thrift Stamps for their
Thrift Cards. The yards have been
more or less neglected during the
real cold weather. The leaves need
to be raked and burned, pot plants
need repotting, garden plots need
spading. Windows and paint need
scrubbing fact dozens of jobs
will present themselves to the am
bilious boy or girl who is eager to
earn the stamps.
The Civic League of Patterson is
giving the children a splendid oppor-
tunity of earning Thrift Stamps by
having them assist in the cleanup
campaign planned for February No
doubt clubs in other towns will use
this or similar means to help the
young folks earn Thrift Stamps. Ev-
cry quarter earned and spent for a
stamp is a silent but mighty power
against an arrogant Monarch who
threatens to shc ckle the world in
slavery. Wake p your minds boys
and girls to lool' FOR ways and means
to earn quarter and save those
quarters by investing in Thrift
Stamps. Fill your Thrift Cards as
rapidly as possible then convert
them into War Savings Stamps.
They are such substantial possessions
and aside from what they mean to
you as business investment, you
have the satisfaction of knowing
that you are serving our Country
are actually part of the fight for
Freedom, Liberty and Peace, the
Trinity of Democracy, whose very
Righteousness is bound to overcome
Satan's twin-the Kaiser.

on January 1, 1913. This promise
is backed by the faith and honor Of
the United States and by the taxing
power of this country, which is the
richest nation in the world.
l.. Why does the United States
borrow this money?
2. To pay expenses Of the war.
1. When lend my money to the
Government, would it be safer to

2. When a War-Saving Stamp is

Liberty Bonds, now held by more
than ten million Americans.
1. Is the 4 per cent interest, COM
pounded quarterly, on War-Savings
Certificates paid in the same way as
the interest on Liberty Bonds.
2. No. The Liberty Bond inter-
est paid every six months, but the
interest on the War-Savings Certifi-
cate accumulates and is paid to you
in one sum on January l, 1923.
L. Why isn't the interest paid in
the same manner on both Warsaw
ings Certificates and Liberty Bonds.
2. 1t would be very complicated
and expensive to pay interest every
six months on S. stamps and for that
reason the United States Govern

THE FIGHTING FAITH.

Faith, Hope, and a great Cause 10
fight for-these make the men "over
there" the heroes that they are, un-
flinching in the Fire.
1t has been noted all along thar
there is "a spiritual uplift' that is
what it has been called-in the allied
ranks-a high and holy heart-strength
due to the feeling that men are fight
ing and dying for men.
And one with the gift of song, who
has made the last sacrifice, voiced
this feeling for thousands that fgh.
fer what he fought and died for.
1t was Joyce Kilmer, whose last
singing was sanctifed with this
Prayer of a Soldier in France"
"My shoulders ache beneath my pack
(Lie easier Cross upon His back.

(Tread, Holy Feet. upon my heart) :.
Men shout at me who may not speak

sIF FE BREAK FAITHw

That challenge Of the dead, from tne
fields of Flanders
eff We break faith with US who die,
is a living line from the death song
of soldier who gave ALL" and has
been a war-winning word to the
world that fights, as he fought, foi
the freedom of the world.
It was the last word of Lieutenant
Colonel John McCrae, of the invinci
BILE Canadians, to his comrades in
arms, who were to "hold high the
torch" thrown to them from falling
hands"
But the spirit of the now famous
world-quoted poem
"If We break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though peoples
In Flanders fields"
appeals to every heart and home "be-
hind the guns"
It is an awakening word-to keep
the faith of Freedoms battle as high
and holy as "Our Boys" are keeping
it on every battlefield; to serve and
sacrifice, and count no gift or service
too great when given for the country.
And the spirit of it was never more
eloqently expressed than in the letter
of a Georgia mother, who said:
"It's lonely little home now
with the boys gone. I had but
three to give, but 1 have given
them to their country. 1t was
their will to fight. as it, is mine to
wait and work. Sometimes l see
the service stars, on the little
home flag, through tears: But
it is not a time for tears. 1t is
time to work, and fight to win!'
That's the spirit that doesn't "break
faith'-the spirit of the home hearts
and the home work to win.
And it isn't solitary, for it speaks
for man and mother alike.
And through that spirit there will
be victory.
