The latest War Camp Community
Service activity, the w. c.. G. 8.
clothing canteen, conducted through
the Military Wool Shop, 507 North
Charles street, Baltimore, promises to
be one of the most popular institu-
lions thus far initiated by this serv-
ice-popular with officers and enlist
ed men alike
At the clothing canteen there has
been installed a line of staple mems
furnishings and arrangements have
been made for securing clothing at
actual cost. The furnishings. 1t might
be well to mention, also are sold at
cost. Through this service the officer
or enlisted man leaving the service is
enabled to secure complete civilian
equipment at a very moderate cost
A glance at the following tentative
price list should prove a strong mag
net for the w. C. c. s. clothing can

The Military Wool Shop has been
operated by Mrs Charles Minnigerode
for number of months and has es-
tablished a nationwide reputation
through furnishing wool at cost.
There is also carried, for the con-
venience of service men, a line Of
cigarettes which are sold at cost 1t
is estimated that this shop has saved
to the community something like
$4,000 in wool, and it is not too
much to anticipate that the saving to
service men will eventually reach
much larger figure.
The Soldiers and Sailors Canteen,
4O9 West Pratt street, recently adopt
ed policy of "all-day service. AT
this War Camp Community Service
institution the service man can Sc
cure good eats" for a trif1ing cost.
AS an example, a sandwich and cup
of coffee are served for cents. Troops
stationed at Camp Meade are particU-
larly benefited by this service, as 1t Ia
directly opposite the W., B. & A. Camp
Meade station. Unless the demand
warrants, this service will not be COM
tinued long. AS consequence it will
be well for Camp Meade men to drop
around to 400 West Pratt street while
waiting for their car back to camp.

Need For Thrift Greater
Now Than Ever Before

and War Savings workers in Atlanta
Monday, Mr.. Franklin pointed out
that one newspaper had suggested
that the next Liberty Loan would nee
essarily be absorbed by the banks OF
the country. Mr.. Franklin said that
this was an impossibility; that if the
banks absorb six billion dollars worth
Of bonds that every man, woman and
child in the United States would feel
the blighting effect, from the man be
tween the plow- handles to the head
OF the largest corporation. It would
make 1t necessary for the banks to
absolutely shut down on all forms of
leans as their assets would not be
sufficiently liquid to permit them to
finance, or to help finance businesses
in their various communities. The
very success of our rehabilitation af-
ter the war, he said. depends Oh keep
Ing the assets of the banks liquid, so
that there may be steady current of
money to keep all businesses operat-
ing as in normal times, and expanding

"The government has decided that

ter this year be changed in name-is

going a step further, this country will.
ask every man, woman and child to
become stakeholder and never to re-
linquish their stock in their govern
ment so long as they live.
"The war is not over, although
most of the actual fighting has
ceased, and we are just beginning to |
pay for a very large part of the ma
chinery which contributed to the final |
downfall Of the worlds enemies. As
Mr.. Franklin said, American speed,
and Germany's knowledge Of that |
speed, is what set at naught all prog
nostications in Washington that the
war could not possibly end before
September 1919" and this speed was
attained through the promises Of this
government, coming from the individ-
uals, that the bill will be paid.
II hope every loyal citizen in Flor
ida will continue to purchase War
Savings Stamps, and to spread the
gospel of thrift and savings among
all of those with whom he or she may
