I What are War Savings Stamps?
They are “Little Baby Bonds”; thley
have the government and its entire re
sources behind them and they pay
you 4% interest, compounded quar
terly. They cost you $4.17 for a $
stamp during the month of June, and
they automatically increase in value a
cent a month thereafter untitl January
Ist, 1923 .when the government wil
redeem the same at any postoffice o
at the treasury in Washington. If
holder find it necessary to realize cash
on it before maturity, he may at any
time after January 2,1919, upon giving
ten days’ notice in writing to any
money order postoffice, receive for
each stamp the amount paid therefor,
plus 1 cent for each calendar month
. after the purchase of each stamp. You’l
can have them registered and you are 1
also protected in case of loss. This
[ is the safest security yet offered you,
; and the most convenient of any offer
. ed, because the denominations are so
small they can be reached by every
l one.
Every person should do his or her
■ part in this great fight, nad this should
| be the war spirit of every true-blue
American —this spirit will win the war
The day of talking patriotism is pass
ed —the time has come to practice it
Remember your government has set
Friday as date for purchase of these
stamps, and every true American will
be summoned to enlist in the grea
“army-that-stays-at-hmme” and sign (
hig pledge card to invest a definite (
amount in theses tamps.
To The People of the Southwestern
Judicial Circuit: ,
I respectfully announce myself a

General of the Southwestern circuit
