with these certificates, or will give them detailed information as to the conditions under which they are sold.
 The United States Treasury depart ment, keeping in mind the welfare of the people from an economic stand point, will furnish these certificates at prices which will net the investor 1 I9 per cent compounded semi-annually
 The certificates are registered by the United States Treasury depart ment and are therefore loss-proof, burglar-proof and ftre-proof.
 An advantage which Is exceptional among investment securities is the fact that these certificates automati- cally increase in value every month during the time that they are held, and as both principal and interest is guaranteed by the United States gov ernment the investor is absolutely sure that not only has his investment been made at a minimum price, but that at such time as he may desire he can receive back his principal and interest
 Postmaster Pagan suggests that Treasury Savings Certificates will make very desirable Christmas pres ents or if the price is beyond the reach of the poCketbooks of any of his patrons. he will be glad to open Postal Savings accounts for them in amounts from $100 up, thus giving the owner a start toward saving and an incentive to increase these accounts to a point where they may be ex- changed for Treasury Savings Certi- fcates.
 The reduced interest rate on con- increase in the price of Liberty Bonds on the market should make Treasury Savings Certificates very attractive during 1922.
 There is no doubt as to the econ omic value of the work which the is doing in this respect, and it Is felt that investment in Treasury Savings Certificates leads to independence as well as to a better type of citizenship.
