There are at least $50 owners Of
1918 series War Savings Stamps that
have Put them away in safety de
posit boxes or tucked them away
among their personal effects and have
forgotten all about them. The time
for redemption for this series is at
hand and anyone who ever purchased
any of these stamps is requested TO
make a thorough search for them and
bring them to the post office for re-
demption or exchange for Treasury
Certificates if so desired. They do not
bear interest from January lst on, so

longer, but may profit by investing
them in other government securities
or placing the money on a savings ac-
count in the bank. Respectfully yours,
g. A. Lauterbach, Postmaster.
