Enthusiasm In the
War Stamp Campaign

JEFFERSON COUNTY is now well
~ organized for the war savings
stamps campaign and splendid results
will be shown from week to week.
BY the end of this week there will
be thousand sales agencies in Bir-
mingham and the daily totals here
should reach twenty thousand dollars
City Chairman Joseph H. Loveman
has set his mark for those figures
and he must not be disappointed. His
enthusiasm is counting for much not
only in Birmingham, but throughout
the county.
This district is now famed for its
organizing habit. In every good cause
Birmingham team workers are always
to the front. Twenty thousand dol
lars worth of war savings stamps
day! The sum may seem large for
one community to realize, but it will
be needed in order for Alabama to
reach its forty-eight million-dollar
goal.
The thrift spirit will soon pervade
the entire state. 1t is already in evil
dence in many counties, but with the
approach of spring every rural pre-
cinct in every section must be aglow
with that enthusiasm which will mean
20 much in winning the war. Every
nickel invested in thrift stamps and
every dollar invested in baby bonds
will be that much in the grand total
pf two billion dollars to be raised in
the United States by the small savings
method.
Not only is Uncle Sam worthy of
such aid, but the people themselves
will feel reflex benefit in an in
crease of patriotic fire and in the
cultivation Of thrift practice.
