The Victory Loan drive ended Satur-

So. 600. 900 over her Victory Liberty Loan
quota, according to the figures announc-

borough, chairman of the Victory Liberty
Loan Committee for Maryland. The
amount actually taken in and tabulated
up to Monday afternoon, according to
Mr.. Goldsborough's statement, was $751;
953, $50.
Mr.. Goldsborough expressed his appre-
citation to all the people of Maryland for
their support in the five loan drives and
particularly to the army of Liberty Loan
workers who gave their time and energy
unstintingly to the five campaings.
His statement follows!

People Urged To Convert Lib
erty Bond Coupons Into War
Savings Stamps On May 10.


erty Bond Coupons Into War
Savings Stamps On May 10.
More than $4,000, 900 will be paid as
interest on Liberty Bonds held by the
people in this country on May Is, and
that day will be known as America s
pay day" throughout the United States
The War Loan Orga nization OF the
Fifth Federal Reserve District urges
everybody to exchange their Liberty
Bond coupons for War Savings Stamps
IN order to keep their money growing and
at the same time help the government.
If the entire $4,000. 900 were converted
into May War Savings Stamps the sum
would grow to 500, 900, 900 bys January
1924. Every stamp obtained by exchang-
ing Liberty Bond coupons in 1919 will be
worth SIS on January l.; 1924, and should
the holder find that he cannot afford TO
keep his stamps as long as that, ne can
cash any number of them he desires at
his postoffice by giving ten days notice.
Letters have been sent from the Edu-
cationai Division of the War Loan Organ
ization at Richmond, Va, to all superin-
tendents of schools throughout Maryland,
District of Columbia, Virginia, West
Virginia, North Carolina and South Car
DINA urging them to see that all the
school children of the Fifth Federal Re
serve District fully understand the great
aid the American people can lend to the
government by converting the coupons,
and the great benefit they will themselves
derive from it.
William r. Timmons, director OF the
Educational Division of the War Loan
Organization, in his letter to the school
superintendent says: "Will you and every
teacher under your supervision aid the
the government by urging every person
you can reach before this great pay day
May Is, to exchange his bond coupons
due on that day, for War Savings Stamps.
Tell the children what it means and ask
them to take the message home to their
parents. If every loyal American will
do his part, the nations debt of honor
can be paid.
A copy of Mr.. Timmons' letter has
been sent to DR.. Henry Nelson Snyder,
chairman of the Educational Committee,
of the Educational and Rural Division,
and also President of Wofford College at
Spartanburg, South Carolina. with a re-
quest that he write or wire to all State
Superintendent who are members of his
committee and urge them to give May
Is, "America's pay day." all possible
publicity. The State Superintendent
can handle the matter through the school
superintendent and teachers in every
county and city in the Fifth Federal Re-
serve district.
If all work together to convince the
people of the advantage, both to them
selves and to the government, in convert
ing the Liberty Bond coupons into War
Savings Stamps, wonderful results can
be accomplished.
keep your dollars growing" is the
appeal of the War Loan Organization.
1t will be an easy matter for most
bond holders to convert their coupons in
to War Savings Stamps on May Is, and
it will mean that the government will
make great stride toward the last pay
nent of the nations debt.
