NEW DIRECTOR OF
SAVINGS ISSUES APPEAL
TO CO-WORKERS

Asks For Best Effort to Make the
Movement Success.
To Associates and Workers:
1t gives me genuine pleasure to con-
yey word of appreciation and en-
couragement to you, who have been
so helpful In the movement of thrift
and economy in this district
In assuming my new duties as diree-
tor OF this department, l felt greatly
inspired by the earnest expression Of
those who have been associated with
ne savings work since Its inception
have received warm wishes and fra
ernal greetings from my predecessors
md co-workers Of this division. | am
therefore, greatly encouraged by such
luman touches Of cheer, of inspiration
md of Willingness to lend their serv-
ce6 TO this much needed movement
This Is more than fine. The work
s bound to bear fruit believe there
enough real love for our land and
ior our institutions for us to stand by
hem and to safeguard them against
in external and Internal foe. And
.emember, our internal enemy at the
present time is extravaganza, waste.
idleness and under production. 1t is
nomic life. If our dutiful men and
women do not rally to the occasion, I
fear 1t will materially undermine and
check the advancement of our com
merce and industry, which has been
the basis Of our national independ-
ence and happiness. l therefore In.
slte you, fellow-workers, to give your
tctive cooperation In stemming this
reckless spendthriftness that 10 as
'enomous TO our country as the pre-
:ailing red" plague.
The present economic situation In
the United States Is one which chal-
lenges the best thought Of every indi-
vidual whose influence and leadership
count. The adverse possibilities In
the situation are serious. High prices,
general mental restlessness, the d.
minished purchasing power Of the dol
Lar, the need for increased production
and decreased consumption-all these
command our thoughtful considera-
ton.
The necessity for concerted action
ON the part Of mindful men and wo-
men, leaders Of social and industrial
life, was never more vital-needed,
perhaps, even more now than during
the war when questions were less
complex. We must find some means
whereby we can grapple with this
sort Of condition. It 10 my sincere
belief that the practical remedy is
national thrift practiced by everybody
anu unuer all circumstances. To this
end earnestly solicit the assistance
OF influential persons, like yourself,
as leaders, to promote the practice OF
thrift which Is to be evidenced BY
purchase Of Savings and Thrift
stamps, and also Treasury Savings
Certificates.
Let US teach the habit Of thrift and
push the sales Of Stamps and Treas
ury Savings Certificates with renewed
zeal and vigor so as to encourage peo-
pie to invest their savings In these
splendid government securities In.
stead OF In some wild cat and sky
rocket stock.
This Office is at your disposal. Do
not hesitate to call for aid and ad-
vice. Meanwhile may l count on you
for common council and Joint EFFORTS
upon which the success OF this move
ment depends?

eagle is a large American flag artis-
tically arranged with two large photo
graphs, one of the First N. D. Inf,

belong to Clarence Madsen. The eagle
was killed by John RAIDER at Hillsboro,
who has recently moved to this city.
Eagles are very rare up in this part
of the country and it is thought that
this eagle was carried away and was
lost in a storm. The American flag
and eagle both representing freedom
this makes a most wonderful showing
This is the second eagle ever known
to have been captured in this locality.
The other one was shot on the Gust
