WORK OF SAVINGS
DIVISION TO CONTINUc
Savings Stamps and CertItI-
Gates to Be Sold Indefinitely
Says Secretary Glass.

The government has received more
thar $1,107, 100000 through sales of
Thrift Stamps, War Savings Stamps
and Treasury Savings Certificates in
the twenty-five months they have been
available for purchase by the public.
This is shown in a detailed statement
concerning the work of the Savings
Division of the Treasury Department
issued by Secretary of the Treasury
Glass. After a steady decrease in
sales from the signing of the armis-
tice, Wal Savings Stamps began to be
in greater demand in August and
September, and reports thus far for
October show a substantial increase.
AS Secretary Glass has previously
announced, Thrift Stamps, Wal Saw
ings Stamps and Treasury Certificates
will be available for purchase indef-
nately. The 'csign for the 1920 War
Savings Stamp is now being complet-
Treasury Savings Certificate will re-
main the same.
Secretary Glass statement said:
Figures have been compiled show
ing the expenses of the government
savings and investment movement and
the returns from the sales of the
smaller denomination securities up to
and including September 80 of the
present year. While, naturally, with
the termination of the popular cam
paigns of the war period which made
instant appeal to the patriotic fervor
of that time, sales dropped sharply
to a decidedly lower level, the trend
appearing in the figures for August
and September indicates that the eff
forts of the Savings Organization to
combat the present tendency to waste
and extravaganza which have come as
a reaction from the wartime econo-
mics, are beginning to have their eff
feet. The present showing of expense
versus return is a gratifying one
Expenditures of the Savings Divis-
ion have materially decreased during
the present calendar year and are be-
ing reduced with a view to making the
thrift movement permanent.
The measure Of the usefulness of
the Savings Organization and of the
thrift movement is not TO be found in
sales of Savings Stamps and Ger
tifcates alone. The Savings Organi-
zation is charged with the duty of
teaching thrift and saving and in
vestment in and holding of govern
ment securities of all kinds-Liberty
| Bonds, Victory Notes, and Certificates
of Indebtedness, as well as Savings
Certificates.

The poet, Samuel Taylor Coleridge,
was a dreamer, an opium eater and a
man of curious moods and lenses.
One time he visited Germany and after
ward wrote his impression of the city
of Cologne. He corroborated the an
cient tradition hat Cologne was once
so filthy and evil-smelling a place that
certain inhabitants thereof exploited
its im~perfections by %inventing a per-
fume of the cheap and lingering sort.
by lei of which the lives of the in
hahitants were made more tolerable
since it furnished them with a pail
late, not a cure, for their unsanitary
condition. The Cologne of today is
fair and sweet enough to satisfy the
most sensitive of noses.

Perhaps the best known of all sea
ghosts is the Flying Dutchman. The
tradition goes that a Dutch sea cap
tain, Cornelius V~anderdeken, was
homeward bound from Batavia. In
e%ndeavoring to round the Cape OF
Good Hope he met with such battling
head winds that after nine long,
weary weeks he hardly shifted his po'
sition. In a fit of passion, Wander
deken cursed God, and vowed by
heaven and hell that he would round
the Cape if it took him till the day OF
Judgment. For his impiety he was
doomed to beat to and fro for all
time. and the phantom ship has heei
reported many times, certain misfor'
tune being expected on any vesseI

RETURNING ALIENS
SHOULD BUY W. S. S.
Their Savings invested With
Uncle Sam Are Safe and
+ Show a Sure Profit

Since the signing of the armistice,
It is estimated that 100000 alien
residents of the United States nave
gone back to Europe. These emf
grants included Italians, Greeks, Jugo-
Slavs, Syrians, Croatians, Servians,
Kurds and Rumanians. Investigation
showed that many of the men of these
latter races had saved as much as
$1,000 which they took with them IN
money.
That fact is a wonderful proof of
the opportunities afforded to immi-
grants by this nation, but it is also
proof that the aliens who returned to
Europe had failed to seize n of the
most important of these opportunities.
Had they invested that money in Unit
ed States government securities, such
as War Savings Stamps and Treas
ury Saving Certificates, their savings
need not have been idle a moment.
Throughout their journeys, during the
time necessary for them to relocate
themselves, they would have been
protected from robbery and loss and
assured Of a profit.
Further, they would have been re-
moved from temptation to risk their
saving in schemes devised solely to
rob them. The ease with which some
of the foreign born residents may be
parted from their ~hard-earned money
is exemplifed by the experience OF
Professor Luigi Luzzatti, former Ital-
ian Premier. The Italian statesman
recently was deluged with money from
America in sums of 81 to 500 asking
him TO reserve tickets for the send
ers in a supposed international lot
terry the proceeds Of which were to go
towards defraying the cost Of the
war. There was no such lottery. A
mere rumor in the French press had
been sufficient to induce hundreds to
part with their money.
If the foreign born residents of
America are seeking to aid in paying
the cost OF the war, both for this
country and the nations of Europe,
the safest and most effective method
of doing it Is to save a portion of
what they earn and invest it in U. S.
War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Savings Certificates.
America presents to the foreign
born the opportunity TO make money
and the United States government by
means of War Savings Stamps, pre-
sents the means of saving it, for the
benefit Of the foreign born themselves,
the country of their adoption and the
country of their birth.

A mining plant that produces both
coal and sand is. according to a writer
Ohio. This unique mine cover about
$50 acres. The surface stratum is
%high-grade molding sand and has an
average depth of about nine feet. 1t
is deposited on a bed of shale about
five feet in thickness and under this
is a seam of excellent coal averaging
from four to five feet. A considerable
tonnage of coal also has been mined.
AS the shale stratum is uncovered by
the removal of the sand, steam shoyels
will be utilized to strip the shale,
thereby exposing the seam of coal.
which will be mined in the open.

1t Is for youthful wearers and shading
the eyes is not a matter of concern
with it. There are wells and goggles
for that-if shading is needed. This
tam, made of silk, appears at the left
of the two pictures.
At the right there is a corduroy bon
net-clearly of Dutch bonnet inspira-
ton. 1t has a becoming dropping brim
all about the face, but a brief brimless
space across the back. Here is a bit
Of strategy which is successful in keep
ing the bonnet on the head. A short,
strong elastic band is set into the base
of the crown at this point and its ten
sion makes the bonnet hug the head.
The crown is flexible and the bonnet
has q soft lining of silk. Everyone
knows the enduring quality of cordu-
roy and this model will surely COM
mend itself to motorists. A small
chiffon veil, gathered over an elastic
cord with snap fasteners at the end, is
easy to adjust On it-and easy to take

To shade the eyes or not to shade
the eyes, that is the question to be
decided when the quest is for auto
bonnets for fall motoring. There are
several requisites that the successful
bonnet or hat or cap must fill. First
of all it must stay on no matter what
winds may blow or how much the driv-
er manages to exceed the speed limit.
To wobble about or come off is the I'M
forgivable sin in a piece of motor head
wear. Besides this indispensable fea-
ture-and equally important-the bon
net must measure up to it's wearer's
ideas of becomingness.
Comfort in all u apparel is an at
tribute that cit almost goes without
saying) is required of it today. Near
ly all the hats and bonnets for mo-
toring have small brims, or visOrs at
the front for shading the eyes, but
there are some turbans and caps that
are brimless. They are in the mi
nority so it is evident that if the ques-
ton of shading the eyes or not were
put to the popular vote-the eyes
would have it. Nevertheless, the
"Blue Devil" tam is so dear to the
heart of young Americans that it en-
tiers the ranks of fall hats for motor
wear. 1t sticks to the head as secure

Soon after the entrance of tbs
United States in the war the successes
of the Central Powers in Roumania
had reduced that country to a most
tragic condition and in the summer
of 1917, the American Red Cross des-
patched its first Roumanian relief
contingent. Two hospitals were at
once taken over and operated by the
Red Cross, a canteen for the starving
refugees established and food and
clothing distributed over a large area.
Transportation was one of the
toughest problems with which the Red
Cross workers in Roumania had to
deal. Here is seen an oxcart used
by the Red Cross to carry its relief
supplies up into the mountains.

Give Thanks, Says President,
For mistaken Democracy

Washington, November president Wilson has issued
MS annual Thanksgiving proclamation, as follows:
BY the President of the United States of America,
A proclamation.
The season of the year has again arrived when the
people of the United States are accustomed to unite in
giving thanks to Almighty God for the blessings which
He has conferred upon our country during the twelve
months that have passed. A year ago our people
poured out their hearts in praise and thanksgiving that
through divine aid the right was victorious and peace
had come to the nations which had so courageously
struggled in defense Of human liberty and justice.
Now that the stern task is ended and the fruits of
achievement are ours we look forward with confidence
to the dawn of an era where the sacrifices of the nations
will find recompense in a world at peace.
But to attain the consummation of the great work
to which the American people devoted their manhood
and the vast resources of their country they should. as
they give thanks to God, reconsecrate themselves to
those principles of right which t~riumphed through His
merciful goodness. Our gratitude can find no more
perfect expression than to bulwark with loyalty and
patriotism those principles for which the free peoples of
the earth fought and died.
During the past year we have had much to make
us grateful. IN spite of the confusion in our economic
life resulting from the war we have p%rospered. Our
harvests have been plentiful and of our abundance we
have been able to render succor to less favored nations
Our democracy remains mistaken IN a world torn with
political and social unrest. Our traditional ideals are
still our guides in the path of progress and civilization.
These great blessings, vouchsafed to US, for which
we devoutly give thanks, should arouse US to a fuller
sense of our duty to ourselves and to mankind, to see
to it that nothing we may do shall mar the completeness
of the victory we helped to win. No selfish purpose
animated us in becoming participants in the World War,
and with a like spirit of unselfshness we should strive
to aid by our example and by our cooperation in
realizing the enduring welfare of all peoples and in
bringing into being a world ruled by friendship and
good will.
Therefore, !, Woodrow Wilson, President of the
United States of America, hereby designate Thursday,
the 27th day of November next, for observance as a
day of thanksgiving and prayer by my fellow country
men, inviting them to cease on that day from their
ordinary tasks and to unite in their homes and in their
several places of worship in a~scribing praise and thanks
giving to God, the Author of all blessings and the
Master of our deshnies.
In witness whereof, 1 have hereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done in the District of Columbia, this fifth day of
November. in the year of Our Lord one thousand nine
hundred and nineteen. and of the independence of the
United States the one hundred and forty fourth.

kAISER'S FATE
IS MAIN ISSUE
WITH GERMANS
National Interest Conferred on
Saving Hohenzollern-Hin-
denburg Appeals to Foch.

LONDON, July Sin Germany the
fate Of the former kaiser rapidly Is
overshadowing all other Issues. even
the ratification Of the peace treaty, IN
point of national interest and ag1ta-
ton, today's dispatches from Berlin
showed. The two chief events report
ed by Berlin in the last "a hours were:
l. Former Field Marshal Won Hin
denburg, in an open letter to Marshal
Foch, begged the allied Generallissi-
mo to use his influence to save the
former kaiser from trial, and repeated
his offer to take Count Hohenzollern's
place as defendant.
2. Colonel Reinhard. chief figure IN
the new German volunteer army. ad-
dressed a similar appeal to General
Pershing through Colonel Parker, head
Of the American Mission at Berlin.
"Duty to War Lord"
The war is over" said Field Mar
shall Won Hindenburg in his letter to
Foch THE German citizens have de-
termined to accept the hard terms I'M
posed on them, and the army officers
also are ready to make every sacrifice
for the fulfillment of peace as far as
their honor remains unimpaired.

himself on behalf Of the Supreme War

ance, is devoid Of honor"
