Assistant Postmaster John H.

local p~ostofhce. This makes a total
mount of SIG 3,7O9.29 whlch mas
come in through that source SINCE
the sale of the stamps was
ed on December l, 1917.
Postmaster General Burleson mas
issued a bulletin to postotices all
over the country which urges tne
owners Of stamps to keep them rath-
er than obtain payment on them now
Sonie people hav the idea that since
the war is over it is all right to cash
in their stamps. but although inc
fighting has ceased the tremendous
expenses which have been necessitat-
ed by the war will continue FOR
months to come, perhaps years, ana
the government requires all us re
sources, including the proceeds from
the sale of the stamps.
The government has
that over thirty million persons par
ticipated in the purchasing OF war
saving stamps in the United States
this year. and hat the income de-
rived from them exceeds the total
government income for the fiscal year

MUGS. The sale OF the stamps has
amounted to the Tremendous sum OF
5000. 600. 900. which is nearly five

The bigness of the Liberty Bond

exclusive of the bond campaigns he

clared the biggest money-raising pro-

that a campaign be launched in every

reflections as a result of defective teeth
and eyes was one which General Huff
man said should haunt the state for
years.
"One-third of the men who were

have been rejected and majority of
these reflections were caused by bad
