Mothers Club Invests in War
Savings Stamps.

Mothers throughout the Fifth
Federal Reserve District are
advised to think in interest by
the Federation of Mothers
Clubs of Virginia. The sugges.
ton has been made that all or
ganizations Of mothers which
have invested in Liberty Bonds
to convert the coupons, when
due, directly into Thrift Stamps
and War Savings Stamps. The
Federation of Mothers Clubs of
Virginia, which holds mum
Der of bonds, has directed its
treasurer to invest the coupons
III Thrift and War Savings
Stamps as they become payable.
The Federation has sixteen di-
visions and each is being urged
to take similar action, and, be-
cause the plan appeals TO the
Federation as good business, 1t
is advising all other orgnniZa-
TONS of mothers in the district
those that hold Liberty Bonds
to make their interest cou-
pons earn more interest, by re-
vesting them in Wur-Savings
Stamps.
Those in charge of the War
Savings movement view the
mothers of the United States is
constituting one of the most
potent factors for thrift. The
mother, it is urged, is able to
inculcate in the child the idea
of systematic saving and can
accomplish results difficult of
attainment by others. The for.
mai action of the Federation of
Mothers Clubs Of Virginia is
therefore very gratifying, for it
not only lends endorsement TO
the savings movement but
gives it substantial assistance,
particularly as many of the
women are expected to do as
individuals what they voted to
do az Federation members.
