Harrison B. Riley says: "iP' is NOT in

(By Harrison B. Riley. Director Seventh

The time has come when every 10y

that has been made to sell the re-
mainder of the states quota OF War
Savings Stamps. The campaign 10
rapidly drawing to close, and IL thu
quota Is to be sold at all, 1t must bs
done now.
The word "if'' Is not one In common
usage in speaking of Iowa. We who
i've outside the state have come to
regard 1t as certain that when any
thing is to be done in Iowa, 1t is done.
There is no "if" about 1t. That Is
why i am as certain that Iowa win
succeed in selling her War Savings
Stamp quota as am that the cause
of Right will triumph on the battle
fields of France. But it means lots OF
hard work
Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov
ember 28th, has been set aside al
the day on which fifteen million dol
lars worth of Iowa's quota that re-
mains unsold, will be sold. 1t Is the
duty of every loyal Iowan to go to
his polling place and buy his fair
share of what remains yet to be sold.
| believe the only thing necessary
to absolutely assure this is to let &c
be known that Iowa Is in danger OF
having it said OF her that she failed
to meet a call for help made by her
Government.
You citizens OF the state will rally
to that call as surely as the soldiers
Of your state have responded to the
call of their commanders in France.

two and one-half million people does

DECLARES THAT GOOD DONE BY
CAMPAIGN WILL BE SAME
IN PEACE TIMES.

F. A. Vanderlip, one of the leaders
In the w. s. S. movement, believes
the War Savings Campaign should be
made permanent branch of the coun-
,try's financial system whether the
war closes this year, the next or sew.
eral years hence. He says that al
ready so much good has come out OF
the great movement that it would be
a grave mistake not to continue sew.
eral years longer even il the war
stops. The War Savings doctrine. he
says, is not only essential to the win
ming of the war, but is to be to great
extent the salvation of the nation.
While Mr.. Vanderlip feels that the
War Savings Campaign has already
been great success, he does not feel
that its best work has yet been ac-
complished-that of teaching thrift.
He estimates that there are at present
over 34.409,0 900 holders OF War Saw
ings Certificates in this country to-
day.
COME TO STAY
This means that one-third of the
people are holders OF Government Sc
curities, and furthermore means that
an army Of savers are working, saw
ing, and lending that their country
may win the war. For the reason
that every month and almost every
day shows big increase in the sale
Of stamps, Mr.. Vanderlip is convinced
that War Savings Stamps have be-
come popular and have won them
selves place in the country's finan-
cial system.
But the main reason why War Saw
lngs Stamps should continue to be OF.
fered to the people, according to Mr..
Vanderlip, is that they are intoxicating
habits OF saving into the lives OF the
people which will mean more to the
country in the future than anything
else, perhaps. besides the winning OF
the war. He says that the doctrine
of THRIFT is greater than any other
feature of the War Savings Campaign.

Every Iowa citizen has an individ.

share OF the responsibility. The more
powerful and effective the American
forces are the shorter will be the war,
and the shorter the war the fewer the
lives lost, the greater the number OF
American soldiers who will return
home victorious.
Every Iowan who economies in
consumption OF material. who in
creases production, who saves and
lends his savings to the Government.
by buying War Savings Stamps, does
something to help win the war.

1t isn't merely patriotic to buy War
Savings Stamps to the limit Of your
ability, but sound business. There
never was safer investment offered,
and let's see what the interest return
is You are limited to $1,000 of ma
turity value OF these stamps that
can be owned in the name Of one in
dividual, but you can buy $1,000 worth
for every member In the family.
Your limit of $1,000 of these stamps
cost you today $844 The difference
between the cost and the maturity
value is $156 and this represents your
profit or interest return over the re-
naming period to maturity, January
1st, 1928, or 49 months. We will d.
vide the profit of $156 by the number
OF months for which 1t represents In
terest or 10, and find that the month
ly interest return is s3.18, so for
period of one year the interest is IL
times $3.18 or $500 annual interest
on an investment OF $844.
froptcm IN interest.
In grammar school days we were
taught to ascertain the rate we must
divide the annual interest by the
amount invested and in dividing
$500 by 1914 we find the net interest
return IL .045 or 4h% absolutely tax
free,and United States Government
Bond guaranteed against deprecia-
tion,and due In four years from next
January. Who could imagine better
investment. The "tax free" feature Is
the equivalent of an enhancement in
the rate of three fourths of one per
cent, bringing your real return to bet
ter than so. You want to remember
that you never had any thing offered
you like this before.
The United States Government new
or offered rates like this before and
they never made it so easy for people
to invest In Government securities.
These are sound business reasons
why every person who can scrape to-
gether $S44 should buy $1,000 OF these
stamps. and why every other person
should invest in them all the money
they can save and invest.
Patriotism Plus Profit.
In addition to that you are doing q
patriotic deed by lending your money
to the Government for the prosecu-
ton OF the war. Every dollar II this
money goes to buy material with
which to win the war-material In
stead OF men.
If money enough Ia forthcoming
with which to buy material less mems
lives will have to be sacrificed. In
the name of good sound business buy
your limit In War Savings Stamps!
In the name of humanity buy your
limit In War Savings Stamps!

heard at Tallahassee from people who

Mendenhall was sent up for life by
Judge O. X. Reaves of Bradentown,
who heard the case in the circuit
court at Clearwater. He has been a
model prisoner at Raiford, the state
prison farm, it is said, and is given q
great deal of liberty. The Times in
formant said he had been placed in
charge of the prison dogs and had
been away from the farm in pursuit
of other prisoners who had tried to
take to the woods.
He is said to have turned his strong
mind in the direction of invention
while at the prison and it is stated
that he has been able to patent one OF
two devices for use in connection with
wood working machinery that are OF
real value and are likely to return
him good money.
