Every parent should see to it
that the teacher inaugurates this
teaching in her weekly schedule
of work and should make it pos
sible for his child to earn some
thing in order that he may have
something to save. Your chill
dren are not given you to work
for you, but are given you to
train into noble useful men and
women. If your child is not a
more useful and better man in
coming years, then you are fail
ing in this God given task of
parent hood.
President Wilson says:
II suppose not many fortunate
by products can come out of this
war; but if the United States can
learn something about saving, it
will be worth the literal cost Of
the war. I mean the literal cost
of it in money and resources
State Director, A. B. Campbell
says truly:
Surely nothing is more impor-
tant than the teaching of the
fundamental principles of saving.
Surely nothing can develop
stronger character than self de-
NAL which will necessarily be
practiced in learning the princi-
Piles of economy. Surely nothing
affords a better opportunity of
teaching the practical principles
of patriotism than that which is
afforded by the use of War Saw
ings Stamps in teaching Thrift
in the schools of Mississippi. this
year.
The Executive committee will
soon make a drive through the
county to the principal schools.
It is hoped that the people of
each community will come out to
hear the program they will give,
and cooperate with teachers in
the campaign.

vested $14,668.967 in War Saving
Stamps, per capita of $7.38
This brought Mississippi from
next to the foot of the class
(Arkansas being the only state in
the union with a less saving pei
capita than we had) to third
from the top of the list among the
southern states. This is record
to be proud of, but not to be
satisfied with, for we are not yet
at the head of the list and we
cannot attain to the degree OF
prosperity we should enjoy until

Our campaign this year will be

teaching the people what Thrift
is and encouraging them to regu-

Many people have the idea that
now fighting has ceased that the
government does not need more
money. But the war is not over.
The smoke of battle rises no more
but the war will not be over until
our government has paid for all
the preparations which were nee
essary to make in order to force
Germany to give up her struggle.
All the big guns which never
reached the front cost great a.
mounts of money to manufacture
and must be paid for.
So we are putting the campaign
for Thrift in the schools not only
to teach our children habits of
economy and industry and sys-
tematic saving but to help do our
part in paying for the cost Of the

The War Indeed

There are those for whom the war
will never be over.
Right here in Caledonia county
there are one or two young men who
have come home to-die. They were
gassed by the Huns, their lungs are
going, they know to certainty that
their days are numbered, they will not
be among those present at another
Memorial day or soldier celebration.
And yet they lived to see the war
won, the German vanquished; they
lived to return home with the boys
of victory and to the homage of those
for whose safety they offered their
all. Their comrades who returned
with them will probably live many
many years. But the mark of the
Hun is upon them. They must soon
die. And yet they are going about
with a smile on their faces as if
nothing allied them at ALL
If this isn't heroism of the first
water, then what is?
After all, wouldn't it have been
more fortunate to have fallen asleep
beneath the poppy-felds of Flanders?
And over in Paris the miserable
Huns are bowling for "fair-play" and
Gust treatment"
