WAYS OF EARNING MONEY
DURING SUMMER VACATION
Many Opportunities Open to Children
Who Wish to Encourage Habits
of Thrift and Saving.

A great many questions about how
children may earn money in order to
purchase Thrift and War Savings
Stamps during the summer vacation
period have come into the War Loan
Organization at Richmond, and it is
% answer these inquiries that the
present article has been prepared.
The suburban or country child prob
IDLY has the best opportunities for
making money, though selling papers
ind magazines, running errands and
LONG chores offer several ways for
The city child to earn the where-with-
Ill for Thrift Stamps.
In the country there is first OF all
The garden, and at this time growing
,ood stuffs should receive special at
!ention. It is not too late to plant fall
crops which may be marketed with
profit. Lettuce and radishes are
easily grown and always find good
markets, especially IN the late sum-
ner and fall There will probably be
more of some ki1t1s Of vegetables in
The garden than can be eaten or cam
ned. These should be sold!
On almost every farm there is time
when much Of the fruit ripens at
,nce, and the problem of disposing or
t arises. Some of it is eaten, some
preserved. A quantity Of it not in
frequently rots. This should be sold
il there is a market near enough, but
f such is not the case theI children
,an put it up and sell the canned stuff
in the fall.
Pigs, chickens, turkeys or rabbits
are easily raised in the summer vaca-
ton, and all of them will bring in
large returns for the time and labor.
Berry picking is another way OF max
ing money that children should enjoy,
and this year there Is plentiful
crop
Many mothers and fathers will be
glad to pay the children for taking
care of the yard, cutting wood, run
ming errands or doing daily chores.
In fact there are so many ways OF
earning money during the summer
that the list might be- indefinitely
heightened. But of course the object
81 any and all of these ways is not
simply to make money, but to make
and save money; in other words,
enough to buy War Savings Stamps
which will bring in four per cent In
terest, compounded quarterly. -
You can do this, every boy and girl
