in these strenuous days of recovery
from one-half of global war, there
was no elaborate floral display, but
the informal arrangements of vases

were exceptionally effective.
The Ambassador and Nine. Bon

with them, although members of
the Embassy staff were assisting
everywhere in entertaining the
many guests. Nine. Bonnet wore
a simple gown in two tones of gold

effect June is. 1886. Therefore the
bonds mature June Is. 1915.
Example OF what this means
each bond was worth $50. Suppose
you had $50 bond. Three per
cent interest for nine years on $50
would be 1880. SO on June Is
you'd collect for your $50 not $50
but $3.50.
Now-some veterans in 1885
never did exchange those old GER
tifcates-the old endowment poll
cies-for the three per cent Treas.
ury bonds.
Therefore, they've been losing
that three per cent interest since
1886.
II you-a veteran-still have the
old certificates. you can change
them into bonds by June Is and
get full credit for the three per
cent interest for the past nine
years.
You can't change them or get
any interest after June Is. II you
don't change them before, you're
out money.
Example: suppose in 1886 you had
a certificate worth $1,000. Three
per cent interest for nine years
on $1,000 would be 500. So, IL
you still have that certificate and
don't change it by June Is, you can
cash it in for only $1,000 II you
change II to adjusted service bonds.
on July Is you can collect 1870.
Some veterans who held their
certificates since Jan. /. l925-the
20-year endowment policy-cashed
them in last Jan. /. when the 90
years were up.
Veterans wishing now to change
their certificates into bonds must
submit them TO the Veterans Ad-
ministration which forwards auth
ority TO the Treasury for issuing
the bonds.
When the certificates are held To
maturity, and not exchanged for
bonds. the maturity value of the
certificates is paid through the
