PAYING OFF THAT
& MORTGAGE

Theodore Roosevelt, said: Thrift is
merely the use of hard common sense
in the spending of money" Paying
OF the mortgage on the installment
plan BY buying War Savings Stamps
is one of the uses of this hard com.
mon sense.
Notsenly does this plan offer prac-
tical way of saving small amounts of
money ,kbut small amounts may be
earning interest as soon as they are
set ASIDE toward the collecting of
the Larger sum. This interest in turn
materially helps to reduce the per
cent interest rate commonly charged
on mortgages.
When the mortgage comes due it
may either be paid off in whole, or in
part and renewed, the method OF
saving Mrough War Savings Stamps
being employed until the principal is

VALUE OF SAVINGS
BECOMES APPARENT
OF National and Individual Thrift,
Now Rapidly Growing

Now that the new German govern
has officially signed the peace terms
dictated by the allies and the coun-
tries associated with them, the great
est and most disastrous war that ever
scourged the world is ended.
For nearly five years the world has
been topsy-turvy. The things that
were needed yesterday are no longer
required, and the activities of the
great war establishments and muni-
tion plants are being diverted to the
manufacture Of implements of peace.
There must now be a readjustment
Governments that have thought i'll bill
lions and spent money with a lavish
hand, must retrench and think in mil.
lions and even smaller amounts, and
must gain a new perspective.
Viewed in the retrospect the part
played by America in the great world
war is one of the most glorious chap
ters in history. And in the making Of
this brilliant history the plain Ameri-
can citizen played stellar role. The
mountains of munitions, the equip
ment for the millions of soldiers, the
great ships that carried the men
across the ocean, could not have been
provided had not the common people
of America provided the money.
Much of this money was obtained
through the sale of Liberty Bonds
and War Savings and Thrift Stamps.
This great volume Of money has mot
been wasted. First it brought perma-
nent peace to the world, and now that
real peace is here, every cent that was
so invested will come back to those
who aided their government, and it
will come back with interest
