My dear Str;-
 am glad to be of assistance in the Thrift and Savings work which you are conducting in the State of Maine for I consider your work of real i'm portance. The man, woman, or child who saves a portion of what he has earned becomes a better citizen. Saving creates capital; &capftal brings responsibility; and responsibility is the basis of good citizenship. No state can endure unless it's people take part in it's government, and in order to take part one must become a partner and must have a share in the government. The man or woman who has something at stake at once becomes such a partner.
 The securities of the United States Government are the safest and best in the world and American citizens may be proud to own them. When a Treasury Savings Certificate is pur- chased the purchaser shows his con- fidence in the United States Govern ment and immediately becomes a member of the firm of one hundred and ten million people all of whom solemnly promise that these certi- ficates will be paid when due and that they will always see that the certi- f1cates are worth one hundred cents on dollar.
 Cordially yours,
 (Signed) Percival P. Baxter
 Governor of Maine.

- To the above application, as re- ceived this week by F. c. Ayres, Gov ernment director of the Savings Divi- sion, First Federal Reserve District, there were affixed the names of Post master Roland M. Baker, Assistant Postmaster W. E. Hurley and I476 employees of the Boston Postal Dis trict- The charter, which was prompt ly granted, represents the largest single War Savings Society in the en- tire United States.
 When the task of organizing the society was undertaken by Miss Mar guerite w. Stoddard, one of the field secretaries of the Savings Division, some weeks ago, it was feared that it would prove very difficult Miss Stoddard went about the work systematically and energetically and accomplished ,what she set out to do, surmounting all difficulties. one after another. Postmaster Baker and the different departments under him cooperated splendidly. The Carriers Association, through its president, John s. Foley, was one of the most helpful agencies. The subs stations fell in line with surprising speed. The main office was handled by means of mass meetings, after which came the canvass for signatures. The can vass was made under supervision of the superintendents.
 Following a report covering the re- suit of this organization, the follow ing letter was dictated by Roland M. Baker Boston, Postmaster:
 MT. F. c. Ayres, Director
 Savings Division,
 262 Federal Building,
 Be ton, Mass.
 Dear MT. Ayres:-
 I wish to congratulate you on the , success of the Savings organization i which has been formed among the employees of the Metropolitan Bos- ton Postal District.
 This work has my unqualified ap- proval, and consider it an honor to HSdu tue lISL III IlllS odNluBS OOClSly.
 sincerely feel a great deal of pride in the achievement, and hope that many other postofices will fol- low the example set by Boston.
 With best wishes for your con tinued success, I am "s.
 Yours very truly,
 (Signed) ROLAND M. BAKER,
 = Postmaster"
 The formation of this splendid so- ciety has been far-reaehing in its effect, for already the post offices in the larger cities in each State in the district have begun to follow suit and have undertaken the formation of Savings Societies within their respec- tive organizations. Among the cities where this work is in progress are, Dover, N. H., (where they have 10OG5 society,", Portsmouth, N. H., Concord, N. H., Manchester, N. H.. Lowell, Mass, and Providence, R. I. Reports of sales which are beginning to come in to headquarters from these new societies prove conclusively that the employees of the Post Office Department really believe in the se- curities which they sell as safe and worthwhile means of investment, for there can be no better evidence of their faith than the fact that they are themselves, putting their savings into them.
 The reports from the Boston Postal Society already show sales amount ing to upwards of $12OO Owing to the fact that the work of organizing many of the .sllbstat ons Is of so re- cent date that they have had no op- portunity to report. these figures arc most encouraging. ...
