These bonds were acquired during the heat of campaigns when the war was on, by individuals who bought beyond their capacity, or because of diversity they were compelled to sell before they were due and accept loss. or because they were improvident and wanted to buy luxuries with the money they had laid by for the rainy day, or any of the scores of reasons that caused men to part with securities of unquestioned value.
 These bonds may now be bought at the market price, plus merely nom inal commission to the agency through which they may be purchased. Just as sure as the sun rises, and just as sure as the government lives, these will in the open market reach par, and go above, in a comparatively short while. Indeed, the trend is that way now The prices are being advanced every day. Liberty Bonds are yet the best investment in bonds anywhere on earth, or elsewhere.
 Then there are the "baby bonds"- tAC nduC RORatoiiJ DOotVUCu Oii tnC Treasury Savings Certificates, the War Savings Stamps and the Thrift Stamps. The latter. in denominations of 25 cents, bear no interest. but the Certificates and the Savings Stamps draw 4.27 per cent if held until matur- ity--a term of five years or little less. And they are tax free, to all in- tents and purposes.
 The real savers, and they are rapid ly becoming legion throughout the Eighth Federal Reserve District. are awakening more each day to the pos abilities before them, and the sales of these "baby bonds" are surpassing the expectations of the official whose duty it is to present the issue to the public.
 There is no skull-duggery about these propositions. They are made openly to every person in the United States. No one is offered preferment. There are no promises made that can not be kept, and every provision or the securities is printed i'll plain type, and in plain language, on the face and back of the security, and they will bear the closest scrutiny.
