The campaign for funds, Mr..

the srnerintendent. "We are recelv-
ing the most pitiful appeals daily Tor

Chappells, S. c., is engaged IN an ef-
fort to protect the citizens of this
community from the dangers of spec
ulative investment which last year
cost the American public S5OO,OOO,-
600 in fraudulent stock transactions.
To counteract this menace, the
postmaster has addressed strong
letter to a number Of representative
citizens urging the safeguarding OF
their savings by investment in United
States treasury certificates.
The postmaster's letter stated a
"nest egg" for future financial sue
cess was waiting at the post office in
the form of United States treasury
saving securities exactly suited to ev-
cry ones pocketbook as they are Is
sued in denominations of SIS, $25,
500 and $1,000. These securities
are insurable without cost against
every form of loss to the purchaser
and bear four per cent interest, COM
pounded quarterly, if held to matur-
ity. They are particularly attractive
not only in their security but they are
not subject to market fuctuation, and
can be converted into cash at any
time at higher price than is paid for
them.
The rapidity with which even small
savings grow, the postmaster states,
is indicated in the fact that 81 and a
few additional cents each week, saved
and invested in two SIS war savings
stamps per month, will yield in 12o
months $500 in cash, and 5000 more,
maturity value, payable S12O a year
for five years longer, total OF Sl2Oo
for an average saving and investment
of little more than So per month
for 120 months.
The postmaster will be glad to an
swer inquiries about government saw
ings securities, and invites the public
to call at the post office for further in
formation.
