War Saving Stamps
Become Due Soon

Washington, November II, Wal
Savings Stamps of the series OF 1919
become due and payable on Januar!
i, 1928. The people who bought
these stamps will receive their full
face value upon redemption and will
find that the money they saved five
years ago. has earned every year
about four per cent. compounded IN
terest. In order to afford holders OF
war savings stamps an opportunity To
continue their investment in a safe
government security the Treasury
Department is offering an exchange
of War Savings Stamps for Treasury
Savings Certificates. The certificates
are issued in denominations of SIS,
800 and $1,000, maturity value, and
sold for $1,000, $82 and $500, re-
spectiyely Holders of War Savings
Stamps can get them at these prices
upon application through their own
banks or their post offices. Elk
changes will be made as of January
1, 1928, upon applications presented
between November Is, 1922, and
January Is, 1923. Immediate pay
ment will be made in cash of any diff
ference due the holder of War Say
ings Stamps if he takes the largest
possible amount of Treasury Savings
Certificates on the exchange.
The growing inclination of the ,peo-
pie to save and their desire to find a
safe reinvestment for their money
leads Treasury officials to believe
that large part of the six hundred
million dollars in War Savings
Stamps soon to become due will be
exchanged for Treasury Savings Ger
tificates.

The First Modern Highway

been shed in the discussion concern,
ing the origin and development OF
improved highways in the world. NC
less a parsonage than Edward w,
Box contributes the newest DIT o'
information.
Edward Box is one of the best
known publicists in the unlteo
States. For thirty years he was col
tor of the Ladies Home Journal
More than million readers felt they
were almost personally acquainted
with him while he was edltorlalls
active Thousands more have come
to know him through reading MS
famous autobiography. The Amer
canization of Edward Box" He was
born in Holland.
1t is generally known that Applus
Claudius, the Roman censor, built the
first durable highway in 81 B &C.
This highway. named the Applan
Way, runs from Rome to Caput. IL
still exists and carries traffic. Al
though it involves many features ap-
plicable to present day construction

today would be prohibitive.
The Appian way was built princl-
pally by slaves and was designed for
a military highway. The. labor cost
was practically nil. 1t was con
structed of stone and mortar, fire.
uuently to a depth of four feet, ano
was surfaced with stone slabs OF
gravel.
The question, however. as to the
origin of the modern type OF highway
surface has always been in dispute.
Under modern types" are included
vitrif1ed brick, asphalt and concrete.
Herein lies the interest in the fol

ticle written by Edward Box and
published in the October issue of the
Atlantic Monthly. Under the title

LOST BY ENGRavER's ERR1s
Grammatical slip in Formation OF
Arabic Character Spoiled Millions
Of Egyptian Stamps.

A curious slip In the formation of q
single Arabic character has led to the
condemnation of M entire printing Of
5,000.000 Egyptian postage stamps of
the 10 milliemas denomination, re
ports Douglas b. Armstrong in the
London Daily Express
The word .milliemes." itself being
feminine, requires masculine number
to precede 1t, but the English engi'aver
Inadvertently rendered both the mum
Der and the word In the feminine. The
mistake was. moi discovered until the
stamps reached Egypt, when they
were withheld from circulation until
new plate could be prepared with
corrected Inscription.
Instructions have been given that
those wrongly Inscribed are to be used
up on oiiiclal docl,ets and postoffice
papers that will eventually be de.
stroyed without getting into'the hands
Of privileged individuals. and fo'
these high prices are being sought.
II is in dealing with unfamiliar
languages that the stamp printer is
most prone TO err. A case in point is
provided by the New Zealand postage
stamps overprinted for use in Niue OF
Savage island some years ago.
The face values of the stamps were
oyerprinted In the Niuean language
the Inscription on the Is stamp read
'rg normally, "'raha @ Sileni," but dur
ing the casting of the electrotype plate
the middle "e" became Joined to the
first word, converting 1t into "Tahae.r"
which means "tblef."

we'll as gift-receiving. The Christ
child comes to bring gifts and also
to receive them. And our hest pos
sible gift to Him is like His to US.
He gave Himself to us and we must
give ourselves to Him.
Moreover, the Angels declared that
His gifts are to those Of goodwin,
those of goodwill toward Him and
toward all men, for His love is as wide
as mankind and should fill all hearts
with mutual love. And hence the
spirit of giving awakened by the
Christ-child is spread abroad among
all who love Him and st. Nicholas
finds that his task is a big one in the
distribution of many gifts.
1t is easy to see how all the parts
of the story fit into one whole and
account for our exchange of Christmas
greetings and Christmas gifts. The
Christ-child is the heart of it ALL The
Christmas spirit, the Santa Claus
spirit, is the spirit of the Christ-child
and there is nothing more real in all
the world. To the Christ-child we
must come first and adore Him and
thank Him for it all. AS for the
Kings, they are magnificent, but chill
dren can hardly make very free with
kings. st. Nicholas is the one whose
business it is to be at the children's
service.
What if he is a saint? If you under.
stand the saints you know that they
are thoroughly human and can be as
jolly as anyone else and are apt to
be more so. And saint, even though
a bishop, who went about at night
throwing gifts into poor peoples win
dows might even come down the chin
ney and fill the children's stockings
with gifts.
With this understanding of Santa
Claus, there is no question about be.
| lieving in him. Of course we shall
tell the children and they will believe
and go on believing as long as they
live, keeping into old age the heart
and mind of little children and so be-
| longing to the Kingdom of Heaven
They may not hold strictly to the
chimney" part of it but that is only
a detail They will always know that
St Nicholas is real as the Christ-child
| is real, real saint once living in this
world and now living in Heaven. Santa
Claus is true because God is true and
all the saints. are true and prayer is
| true and the intercession of the saints
| is true and we are all united in that
great family of God which we call the
Communion of Saints.
