2 .- i WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 1918 ' fe ---- --_--_--. -------- LESSON IN THRIFT FOR | NATION'S WAR SAVERS U. S. Officials Declare People Must Invest in Both War Savings Stamps and Liberty Bonds Another Liberty Bond Drive is al- most upon us. It will be pushed with energy hitherto unheard of by the magnificent organizations which have been built up and perfected through two previous drives. It will meet with the response it deserves from the American people, and will be followed by yet othér drives as the war goes on. But the Was Savings campaign-- not drive--we have with us through- out the year. The War Savings campaign is in no sense a rival of! the Liberty Bond drive. In fact, it is a partner--not a Junior partner-- but a full partner. The amount to be raised through the sale of War Savings stamps equals the amount of the first Liberty Loan. The man who has bought Liberty Bonds is not thereby excused from aiding in the War Savings campaign, and the man, woman or child who has bought War Savings stamps, and is continuing to buy them, is not there- by excused from purchasing Liberty Bonds, if he or she can, in any way, raise the money. The United States Government, in its short, intensive bond drive, wants the people to invest whatever money they can raise, from any source whatever, their capital and accumul- ated savings, in the larger national securities. But throughout the year, the Government also asks the people --all the people-- to save what they can, every week, every day and in- vest the day by day savings in War savings stamps. Such saving, meth- odically and persistently carried out alone can make a people thrifty. Such savings create new capital on which the nation can do its business of making war. Such saving releases raw materials, factories and workers for the service of the Government. The purpose of the War Savings campaign is to raise money, but it is more than that, and the "baby bonds" must not be lost sight of while the drive for the bigger bonds is in progress.
