our soldiers and our allies soldiers are
shedding their blood be not achieved and
lest the nation suffer financial crIpplng
after the war, even should it be won.

WELCOMED IN pARocHIAL SCHOOLS
U. S. Thrift Stamp Campaign Approved
By Bishop Rice.

| Bishop Joseph J. Rice of the diocese
of Burlington has given his approval of
and support to the t. s. war savings
stamps in Vermont i'm the following let
ter to State Director Fred A. Rowland
of Montpelier:
Dear Mr.. Rowland: II becomes my
pleasurable duty to bespeak for.you and
for the cause you represent, a hearty
welcome in all the parochial schools of
the diocese of Burlington.
The war savings stamps will bring
within the reach of our children golden
opportunity to serve our dear country
in her day of need and at the same time
will enable them to place their earnings
in the safest investment known to man.
This thrift campaign will greatly aid
the rising generation to face some of
life's problems from the correct view
point-not the angle of vision of the
miser who boards and gloats over his
hoardings, until falling, he adores them
nor the distorted outlook of the spend
thrift who squanders his substance living
riotously-but the sane foresight of the
virtuous man who deprives himself of
the superfiuous in order that he and his
family may live in frugal comfort whilst
ever ready to extend helping hand to
the poor and the needy.
Recognizing the regrettable fact that
wastefulness has long been our beset-
ting sin, thrift would be commendable
and sanitary even in times of peace; in
times of war it becomes our bounden
duty as loyal Americans
Il feel confident, dear Mr.. Rowland,
that our teachers and pupils will do their
utmost to second your patriotic endesv-
ors.
I'm keeping with promise made on
the occasion of your visit enclose list
Of our schools.
With constant good wishes, remain,
dear Mr.. Rowland very respectfully |
yours, Joseph ]. Rice, bishop Of Burling |
