THRIFT STAMPS
AREDISCOVERED

ATLANTA, Oct. 21.-Counterfeit-
ers have found a new field of activity.
According to reports from the treas
ury department counterfeits have
been discovered in this years issue
war savings stamps, depart
ments of the government are at
work trying to apprehend the persons
Irresponsible for the distribution of
the fake reproductions of the little
securities.
M. T. Wellborn, governor of the
Federal Reserve bank of Atlanta, has
notified all banks in the district of
the discovery. Silas W. Davis, gov
ernment director of the war loan or
Iganlzaticn, the agency having charge
of the sale of thrift and war savings
stamps in this district, has warned
his agents to be on the lookout for
the counterfeit stamps. The Georgia
Bankers association also has taken
the matter up, requesting members
to guard against taking stamps that
are not genuine.
Banks and stamp agents and post
masters are requested to hold any par
ties presenting the counterfeit stamps
and to communicate at once with the
chief of the United States secret ser
vice at Washington. The counterfeits
are being attached to genuine certF-
ticates. They are a Photographic re-
production in good color blue ink, but
the fine fines behind the portrait in
tne genuine appear in solid color in
the counterfeit. The perforations of
the genuine stamp appear photo
j graphed on those which are not gen
uine.
"Counterfeiters seem to know a
good thing when they see it," said
Director DAVIS, "or they would not
take the chance of a term IN the fed
eraI penitentiary by putting out re
productions of war savings stamps.
People who are willing to buy war
savings stamps at less than their ac-
tua value may get stang when they
enter into a deal of this kind, be-
cause genuine war savings stamps
bought through banks, postoffces and
authorized agents Of the treasury de-
partment are always worth their full
face vafue, plus accrued interest"

BlG METHODIST CAMPAIGN OPENS
 SUNDAY FEB i6

Sunday, February l6, marks the opening of d remarkable campaign of the history of the the church world. Or1 that day the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. will fire it's first guns in an organized effort to enlist g. OO0,000 church members iii a great league of prayer and LOGO, ,060 church members as tithing stewards of the denomination. The campaign for in tercessors and tithihag stewards, which will last four weeks. i,as been put on Lecause the denomination has de- clared for revivified church to met the need of reconstruction times.
 The campaign is particularly re- markable in as much as 1t is d move- ment which will be felt in every city and town and rural district through out the length and breadth of the Southern and Western States. It is recognized as g most important part of the Centenary Camoaign of tho Church--the Campaign which cele- zrates the year 1919 as the anniver- sary of one hundred years of Meth odist Missions.-a pastors and Min- ute Men will on Sunday February 16, enlist the cooperation of all loyal church members in every one of the 1S,000 churches of the denomination.
 During the one hundred years just closing the Methodists have grown from denomination of few thou sand to more than six millions, and from contribution of $l00 ill the first year of organization to d contribution of $7,000,000 a year. One of the fea-

pob and supervising after-care. In New Science. The science of restoring disabled men to self-support is so new that there remain many open questions to be profitably debated. One point of difference is whether the handicapped pupil may be more satisfactorily train- ed in regular vocational school of in a special school or special class for the disabled. Another question to be discussed is whether re-education should begin while the man is still soldier patient in the hospital or after discharge from the hospital and from military service.
 A training method of recent de- velopment is the placement of men in factories under a mondified appren- ticeship scheme. Information regard ing the workingssof this plan will be presented by representatives from Ca nada, Great Britain, and France.
 The plan of the various allied gov ernments for the supply of artificial limbs to amputated soldiers, is anoth- CT subject for consideration. To ad- vantages of the adoption of stand ard type of leg and arm will be re- ported upon in detail.
 More successful results than ever before are now being attained in the dealing with the disabled man. The foundation of success is the correct choice for the man of the right. job: The greatest aid in such vocational guidance has been derived fro mthe finding of industrial surveys" to dis close employment opportunities for the handicapped. The pioneer survey work will be fully discussed. 's
 The interests of special classes in work. with disabled men will be given full hearing. Among the classes most directly concerned are the men them selves. organized labor, and the em- blowers of the community. In this country there has not as yet been ex- ] tensive activity on the part of the disabled soldiers, but in France and Britain and Canada there have grown up vigorous veterans associations i Similar organizations may be looked \ for here. The experience of our allies in this connection will be store on which American workers may draw with impunity-and with very dis tinct advantage.
