THRIFT STAMPS

Boys and girls can help win the
war by buying Thrift and Savings
Stamps. Every Thrift Stamp costs
twenty-five cents. When pupil
buys a Thrift Stamp, card is Civ
en- to him. When you buy a stamp
you should place it where it says
one stamp. There are sixteen
squares. When you have sixteen
stamps you can exchange them for
War Savings Stamp by paying a
few cents extra This stamp will
cost $412 during January and in
February you will pay $413 and so
on.
At the end Of five years the gov
eminent will pay five dollars for
this stamp, for all War Savings
Stamps draw interest at the rate
Of 4 per cent. Thrift Stamps do
not draw interest and for that
reason children should work hard
to hold at least one War-Savings
Stamp. Children are asked to buy
these stamps because our country
is In war. The United States needs
a lot Of money to feed and clothe
our soldiers and sailors. AS we
want our country to win we are
going to help in every way we can

WEDDING OF MRS. FOX

There was once upon time fox
with nine tails who thought that
his wife was not faithful to him
He determined to put it to a test, so
he stretched himself out under the
bench and keeping his legs perfect
ly still he appeared dead. Mrs. Fox
meanwhile assembled to her room
and shut the door and her maid the
cat stood over the hearth cooking.
AS soon as it was known that Mr..
Fox was dead several suitors came
to pay their respects t the widow.
The maid hearing some one knock
ing at the door and there she saw
a young fox who said, Miss Kitten
is Mrs. Fox in? How is she?"
"She sits in her room and cries
all the time"
Tell her then my maiden that a
young fox is here that wishes to
marry her"
Then the cat went up stairs and
told the fox that there was a sutton
downstairs. The fox asked if he
had nine beautiful tails and when
she found that he had not she
would have nothing to do with him.
So it Jared with all the suitors until
at least there came a fox with nine
tails. Mrs. Fox consented to marry
him.
Just as they were about to cele-
brate the wedding the old Fox
aroused himself and threw all the
guests out of the window and then
lived happy ever after.-ROland

THE GOOD DOCTOR

Once upon time there was a
very poor woman who had three
children. She always worked very
hard and had worn herself out.
Now she was very i'll. The children
sent for the doctor but they had
no money to pay him. He was a
very kind doctor so he said that
he would do all he could to help
them.
AS the children were playing in
the yard they saw something spark
ling in the grass They picked it
up and found that 1t was a dia.
mOnd. The good doctor took it to
town and sold it for them. The
doctor took them all to his house
to live. The children each had a
pony and the mother soon grew
strong. She was the most beauti-
full lady in the city.
