IS MOTTO now
SLOGAN for Ninth District in Cam

Living Cost.
DETERMINED EFFORT
People Must Produce More Than They
Spend Before Prices Can Come
Down-Liberty Loan Organt-
zation Active.

October sixth, the first anniversary
of the Fourth and in many ways the
greatest Liberty Loan campaign, has
been fixed for an intensive effort to
sell 500 and $1,000 Treasury Savings
Certificates in every county of the
Ninth Federal Reserve District. The
appeal year ago was the destruction
of Germany's fighting force. This
year it will be the destruction OF high
prices.
work and Save is the motto of
the District War Savings Organiza-
ton. Through It's county and wide
spread society organizations, deter
mined effort will be made to convert
this motto into action throughout the
six states of the Ninth District. Those
in charge are so firmly convinced that
the putting into force of these cardinal
principles of thrift is the most prac-

Produce More-Spend Less.
THE people of America must pro-
duce more than they spend before the
law of supply and demand can operate
to reduce prices,"- said M. E. Harri-
son, District War Savings Director.
In other words, they must stop ex-
travagance, spend wisely and save.
TO pound home this point is at pres
ent the most important part of the
established program of the Savings
Division Of the Treasury Department.
We will do this through the schools
and industrial societies, through our
personal workers and speakers in all
parts OF the district, through Htera-
ture and the press"
Campaign to Be Intensive.
I'VE believe an intensive campaign
to sell Treasury Savings Certificates"
continued Mr.. Harrison, will do much
to emphasize the Importance of thrift,
to popularize the idea and thus help
to prepare the public mind to receive
the benefits of the permanent cam
pa1gn for Thrift education. Hence the
October 9Th campaign"
The old Liberty Loan County Or
gan1zat1ons have been asked to take
charge of the campaign. Governor
Void Of the Federal Reserve Bank has
approved the plan. A. r. Rogers, Dis

drives, has personally written each

Everyone admits that the Ninth

Campaign to Help.
II believe by carrying on such a
campaign, our old organization will be
in way perpetuated and will give
proof of its efficiency for patriotic work
in peace as well as in war. I think
that such a campaign properly car
ried on in each county will help very
greatly in the sale of these securities.
Increased sales will relieve the
Treasury Department of just that
much financing work by the sale Of
Certificates Of Indebtedness to the
banks and will release just that much
money for industrial development. I
believe that it will result in calling
peoples attention to the value Of the
Government securities as an invest

as happy habit Moreover, 1t will,
materially aid in the reduction of the

Mr.. Harrison. MANY Of the old coun-

high cost of living and to get things
back on a substantial and prosperous
peace basis with the least possible
trouble and delay.
In order to do these things, it is
necessary for the people generally to
change their present way of spending.

It is argued that = tax on these
evidences of ownership in property is
comparable to tax on a deed for

nothing more than paper evidence of

taxed, it would amount to double tax

Hence tax or shares of stock, paper

PLAN BEAUTY IN BUILDING

Lieut.. Gordon Allen, r. E., author OF
'NThe Cheap Cottage and Small
House." in the London Mail. y,
Cost has always been an essential
consideration in the building of cot
tages. And some Of the very qualities
making for cheapness tend also toward
a pleasing appearance. Repose and
genuine LONELINESS, the right use Of
materials, the application of thought
and good taste to produce graceful
proportion and picturesque balance
those are some of.the elements help
ing to harmonic cottage home with
its environment without adding ary-
thing to the money expenditure.
Let us examine oeF historical cot
tages and try to discover by analysis
whence comes their beauty. We shall
find that the old builders made direct
for comfort and CONFERENCE.-The they
then regarded it-withOut troubling
Overmuch about ornament. And by
force Of circumstances they were COM
PEELED to use only the building ma
terials at hand. ,

than those from distance. They al

Forty per cent Of the cost of house
is spent on walling. A legitimate
means of saving in this direction is to
reduce the height of buildings. This
can be done without taking away from
the floor area, which is so important.
Moreover, lofty rooms are not neces-
sarily healthier than low rooms, for
tall windows and other kinds of ven
tilation can easily be provided.
