The first week in June will be OBJ
served as Boy Scout Week throughout
the country, and in anticipation Of
that observance steps are being taken
in Crane Forks to arouse interest in
the work of the Boy Scouts. F. H.
Teller, a field agent of the society, is
spending some time in the city for
this purpose, and he has been in con
ference with various gatherings of
business men 1t is hoped that suffi-
Gent interest will be aroused in the
work to permit the establishment here
OF a regular council, in order that ev-
cry possible benefit may be realized
from the effort put forth.

FILIPINAS Get
BALLOT BEFORE
AMER. Sisters
Sonora de Veyra Describes
Status of Women in the
Philippines.

The Filipino woman Is destined to
be in the worlds spotlight more than
ever before as result of the news just
received by cable from Manila to the
effect that the Philippine senate hap
passed the equal suffrage bill giving
women full political rights with men.
This would indicate that the Filipino
may beat her American sisters to the
ballot box.
The Filipino has many admirers who
predict she will make good If she gets
the vote, just as she has made good in
the very important role she has oc-
cupied in the family and business life
Of the Philippines ever since the in

the Filipino. "Mothering the only
Christian people in the far east, she
holds place Of authority, love and re-
spect in family and social life that Is
not accorded to women in countries
neighboring the islands, or in India,
China or Japan"
Filipino who is doing an impor-
tant work for her people in the Unit
ed States is Mrs. Jaime G de Veyra,
wife Of the resident commissioner from
the Philippines Not only has she fire.
ouently addressed the wives Of men,
bers of Congress in Washington as to
conditions in the new Philippines, but
she has visited various cities speaking
before women's clubs. The sonora
wears, in giving her talks, one of the
beautiful gowns Of her home land, a
delicate pineapple fabric, hand-woven
and hand-embroidered, shaped like
gauzy-winged butterfly.
"In many ways the path Of the wo-
men of the Philippines is easy" says
Sonora de Veyra Laws made by her
and Spanish precedents, and she has
come into her own with far less strug-
gle than either her American or her
Spanish sisters. Married women may
hold property In severalty. They are
guardians Of their own children. These
are vested rights and cannot be taken
away from her.
professional opportunities are as
good for women as for men in the land
from which l come The Filipino Is
by custom the dictator in the home.
She is usually the keeper of the family
treasure Practically all Of the small
shops in Manila are conducted by wo-
men. Women are already members OF
the Philippine Bar Associations
thing still impossible In Great Britain.
They are also successful as physi-
cians."
Life is really ffty-f1fty proposition
for women In the Philippines, accord
ing to the sonora, who has taken such
q prominent part In women's work
there that she has sometimes been re-
ferred to as "the little mother Of them
all" She was the assistant matron Of
the Normal Hall Dormitory for Girls
when she married. She speaks Eng
lish fuently and puts her little talks
"over" with real tact. She has four
children. An evidence Of her enter
prise was her action last year In mas

SAVINGS CERTIFICATES OUT;
INVESTMENT VALUE SHOWN
"They Always Are Worth More Than
You Paid for Them" Slogan
of 1920.

"They are always worth more than
you paid for them"
With this as their slogan representa-
tfves of the War Savings organization
of the Seventh federal reserve district
are touring the states of Illinois, In
diana, Iowa, Michigan and Wisconsin
showing banks. corporations and indi-
viduals the high investment value of
the 1920 Treasury Savings certificates
of 500 and 81 900 denominations. This
form of government security has been
placed in local banks, and for the
financial prosperity of the nation and
the individual. the government is
urging wide distribution.
The Treasury Savings certificates,
which are virtually "Baby" bonds, bear
interest at rate little better than
AZ per cent. The price of the 800
certificates for January is $50 40; Feb
ruary $500. The price increases 20
cents a month. The 81 900 certificates
may be purchased in January for 1924
and in February for 1896. This class
of security increases 50 a month.
Here are some of the attractive fea-
lures of the 500 and $1,000 certifi-
Gates:
They carry valuable tax-exemption
privileges.
They cannot depreciate in value, not
being subject to market fluctuations.
They are always worth more than

They yield q substantial income, &C
tually more than AZ per cent.
They are short term. maturing Janu-
airy 1, 1925.
They represent absolute safety as
obligations of the United States gov
eminent.
A change has been made in the terms
of the 1920 certificates. They are re-
deemahle at The treasury beginning
with the second calendar month after
the month of purchase without the ten
days demand required by the terms of
the 1919 certificates.
special issue of Treasury Savings
certificates has been put on the market
for conversion purposes. 1t is pos
sible for the holders of 1918 and 1919
War Savings certificates to convert
them into these special Treasury Saw
ings certificates, whose terms and con-
ditions are substantially the same as
those of the 1920 issue except for their
earlier maturity dates.
Holders of one or more War Savings
certificates of the 1918 or 1919 issue
which bear War Savings stamps hav-
ing total maturity value of 500 or
some multiple of hundred dollars
5000, $500, $500, ETC., may exchange the
certificates for the same maturity
value of Treasury Savings certificates
of the corresponding issue. When two
or more War Savings certificates of
the same issue are offered for ex-
change, each one need not bear it's full
complement of 20 War Savings stamps,
provided the total value of the stamps
aggregates 500 or some multiple of it.
Treasury Savings certificates taken
in exchange may be made out in favor
of new and different owners, if the
owners Of the War Savings certificates
so request.
