REINSTATEMENT AIr PIPE.
Cub Reporter in South Bend, Ind. sets Pace in . Unique War Savinas
 Society.

Hitting the pipe may be terrible vice in Chinatown, but not among the newspaper men of South Bend, Ind. There 1t comes pretty near being a virtue. For the newspaper men of that town have banded themselves together into the Pipe Smokers Thrift Club, each member of which is pledged not to smoke cigars until he has purs chased $20 worth of War Savings Stamps.
 The plan was started by . cub re- porter, who really did not like eigars. but the thrift argument with which he advocated his scAems was unanswar- able and met with immediate and eu. thvslAstic response.
 Consequently. when . South Bend member of the Fourth Estate takes his typewriter in lap to write piece for the paper" his first move is to all up the old ''dudeen." Some of the most effective esusions of one society editor have been inspired by the yur. gle of well-seasonsd corn cot.
 Even political and banquet oisass are under the ban.

THE DOLLAR NOW AND THEN.
Money Saved Now, If Properly Invest cd, Will Have Double Buying :.
 Power inrDays to Come. =

The saying has come up from the Dark Ages that the way to make mon ey is to buy cheap and sell dear.
 As, the government of the United States Is pointing out to its citizens. one way to do this is to buy standard securities when general prices are high, and hold them for redemption when prices are lower. w. s. s. posters urge investors to use the pres ent How power" dollar to buy govern ment securities and to receive in re. demption at later period high power' dollars.
 Here is how 1t works.
 Before the war you earned. say, s . day. Now you earn say. $6 for doing the same work. But you can't buy any more with your i've dollars than you could with your three dollars-other prices have gone up in proportion to the, price of your labor
 If. some years after the war is over, prices and wages decrease somewhat. you may. for example, be earning and spending "A per day. Your War Say. ings Stamps become due and the gov. ernment gives you back your $83. or tho then value of nearly 1l days la. bor, plus your $17 interest. In terms of days labor, the government Is giv- ing back four days more than 1t re- ceived from you besides your s17 tn- terest. This changing value of the dollar has made many persons richer and others poorer without their know. ing exactly how 1t happened. Now is the chance to join the class of those who are going to be made richer, and one safe way to join is by buying the convenient government security-the War Savings Stamps.

 Is Now Offering.
ARE EXHIBITED AS EVIDENCE

No man can work with his hands without showing calluses, whether he be a great violinist or section hahd. His hands bear the credentials ol ms trade just as his union card bears the credentials of his trade union. Calluses on the hands are cer,lncate or standing in the craft and it makes not the slightest difference whether they are caused by the ivory keys Of grand piano or the handle of No. Z muck stick.
 No union man is ashamed of the cal. fuses on his hands, formed in the hon. est practice of his craft. But it would not hurt for him to have few caIluses on his mind also. He has adequate proof that he has used and can use his hands. Even the most hard-boiled police court judge is willing to accept his manual calluses as conclusive evi- dence. But he needs something 10 show that he has used and can use his mind. s E
 Has he thought for himself as well as worked for himself? If his brain hes made him save and preserve what his hands have gained, the answer ts "Yes" and the proof is there for all to see His savings and his invest ments are the calluses which show that his mind has been working for him.
 . It is not necessary for any man to blister his mind before he has thought calluses on it. All he has to do is to save a part of what he earns every week and put 1t into some safe, sound and profitable security, such as Gov ernment Savings Stamps and Treas ury Savings Certificates. They are the safest place for. your savings because they have the U. 8. Government be- hind them. a
