government securities; OF becoming
co-partners with the government That
there are today more than 20,000,C,1
holders OF government securities is a
fact which speaks for itself.
When you buy War Savings Stamp
you are helping the government. To
be able to make loan to the govern

sented by War Savings Stamp, is a
proof of patriotism and also practi.
cal manifestation Of that spirit OF IA.
tional thrift and individual savings
which has come to us as a permanent
heritage from the war.

Hardin. She told him that the camp
would no longer be dull; that she had
tea every afternoon in her ramada.

her. She fell into q delicious furry of
nerves and excitement. Later. she
wandered with him from rude gaping

and cleaning waters. He told her OF

had dropped him to self-pity.
Gerty Hardin heard her bars DROP
