Canada's financial problems are great, and thrift that leads to savmg and saving that leads to buying War Savings Stamps is helping to solve these problems. With which ts Incorporated the Bobta- Lean Mr. Ault impressed very strongly the need of personal and family thrift as much needed now as during the war. Millions are needed by the government. the must be got, if not from the people of iyl'l't', at this good interest] then from the millionaires of the States, in which case payments for interest allleave the country. The procedure is this ', You buy stamps at 25c each till you have 16 of them, cost " Then exchange them for a War Sav- ing certificate and on lst Jan. 1924. the government will give you 85 for it. This works out a little better than 45 per cent, while banks give only 3 per cent If you buy $40worth the government pays you 850 on Jan. 1, 1924 and so proportion- ately. i A Mr. Ault, an agent of the Ottawa government was in town last week urging the formation of an organization to pro- mote the sale of "Thrift Stamps " It is another kind ot Victory Loan, brought within reach of the humblest for the cost to begin is only 25c.
