GOVERNOR BLACK ENDORSES
NATIONAL THRIFT CAMPAIGN

ITO The Bankers of Kentucky:
The Government is now prosecut-
ing National Thrift Campaign, and
/ hope that all the banks in this
State will give this movement their
unqualified support. The organic
ing of Savings Societies for the pur-
chase of Thrift and Savings Stamps
and the new Treasury Savings Ger
tifcates will convert many spenders
into savers. Every new saver ere
ated ultimately becomes bank de-
position. Every new bank depositor,
no inter with what band he deals,
is distinct additional asset to the
entire banking community.
= "a person once having acquired
the habit Of saving, will be bank
customer all his life. For this reason
every bank in this State should push
this movement to the utmost of its
ability, not forgetting that every
Thrift and Savings Stamp and Treas
ury Savings Certificate sold will ulti-
mateiy build up savings account.
Thrift practice means the retaining

finance in the main work of the Ken
lucky tuberculosis Association, I"
Campaign Director Thweatt, in
charge of the Christmas Seals cam
paign in Kentucky, said. Mr.
Thweatt gave some facts in regard
to the prevalence of tuberculosis in
Kentucky and in the cities of the
State that gave an adea of how
widespread the white plague is.
Statistics show" said Mr.. Tive
att, that Kentucky has the highest
death rate from tuberculosis of any
Of the States and and experience has
shown that tuberculosis is both pre-
ventable and durable disease. Cen
sus figures tell us that one out of
every seventy persons in the United
States die every year and ten per
cent. of these deaths are caused by
tuberculosis. In Kentucky one out
OF every seven persons who died last
year died from this plague.
There are about twenty-nine
thousand nine hundred living cases
Of tuberculosis in Kentucky. Unless
these patients are properly cared for
or taught to care for themselves
every active case may become the
focus for Ave other cases. We are
trying to stop the needless sacrifice
of human lives by teaching the vic
Tins of this disease to practice the
simple laws Of sanitation in their
homes, in public places and among
their friends.
kentucky has never failed to re-
spond to the calls for help through
the Red Cross Christmas Seals. We
have no thought it will do so this
year, but rather that it will give
generously the willing gift of gen.
erous people to aid the unfortunates
suffering a living death from a dis
ease that can be cured if proper
methods will be followed"

ONLY A COLD.
