The United States Treasury De
partment has devised a plan where
by the schools of the Nation may
be able to do their part in service
and in fixing ideals for future na
tional betterment. War-Savings
■Certificates to the amount of $2,000,
000,000.00 are offered to the people
of the United States. The law pro
vides that no more than $100.00
'worth of certificates may be sold to
one person at a time, and that no
person may hold, at any one time,
certificates aggregating more than
*1,000.00. For the convenience of
Ihe small investor War-Savings
Stamps costing $4.12 in January
ano one cent more in February and
for each succeeding month will be
sold. Space for twenty stamps is
provided on each War-Savings Certi
ficate. A certificate with twenty
War-Savings Stamps affixed will be
redeemed by the U. S. Government
on January 1, 1923 for $100.00, the
over what the certificate cost repres
enting interest at 4 percent com
pounded quarterly.

mgs Stamp by paying the difference £
between $4.00 and the current price—
of the War-Savings Stamps, which

for each succeeding month in the
year. Banks and postoffices axe

The Treasury Department also
uggests the formation of War

plication a certificate of affiliation

aittce will be issued. The purpose
if the Society etc., are set forth in
. special pamphlet which will be
er.t out with the bulletin referred

chool'in the Territory should organ

ip actively a campaign for the pur
hase of War-Savings Stamps and

savings system-, in case one is in use
be diverted to this national service.
It is easy to impress on children
what money means in terms of war
supplies, in soldier’s meals, in uni
forms, coats and blankets, in hospi
tal supplies, etc., and once having
seen what dimes, quarters, and doll
ars can accomplish the average child
will be impelled to do his best to give
to the government the use of as
many as possible. As the War-Sav
ings Committee has expressed it—■
“War Savers are Life Savers. A
Country worth fighting for is a
Country worth saving for. To save
money is to save life.”
Every dime, quarter, or dollar
spent needlessly by the boys and
girls, the men and women of the
United States prevents just so much
labor or material or food from being
used for the Nation's immediate nec
essities. When the boys and girls
I of Alaska realize this they will hesi
] tate before spending a dime or a
| quarter for an unecessary movie or
i an unnecessary bag of sweets. Two
I dimes and a nickel or a quarter
! mean a Thrift Stamp, and Thrift
Stamps in groups of sixteen mean
a War-Savings Stamp which, when
added to nineteen others, means a
War-Savings Certificate with its pur
chasing power to the government
and its intrinsic and moral value to
the possessor. It has been truly said
that “a little child shall 'ead them”
and the children of the Territory
will lead many adults into right
ways of thinking and living if the
teachers of Alaska but realize and
use their present opportunity.
War-Savings Societies, Junior Red
Cross Organizations, etc., break into
the regular work of the school to a
certain extent. The Lessons in
Community an National Life to
which attention has been called in
this issue of the bulletin are also
guilty of the same breach of one
time school room etiquette. It is
felt, however, that, in place of in
terfering with regular work, these
activities should be made a very de
finite part of regular work and that
they contribute to the real growth
and advancement of the pupil to
a far greater extent than the small

that Marie Neibling, a citizen of
the United States, over the age

portions of certain formal subjects
which must b3 dropped out in order
to make room for them.
Mr. Frank A. Vanderlip, President
of the National City Bank of New
York and who has chargo of the
War-Savings Campaign, has this J.o
say regarding tt,e> plan:
“I believe it offers the best saving
scheme ever presented to a people—
absolute security, an opportunity to
purchase anywhere, for these will be
on sale not only at every post office,
but at every bank, and 1 hope at
a hundred thousand other agencies,
which the Secretary of the Treasury
will appoint. I hope it will be the
easiest article in the United States
to buy. It will be on sale at more
places than any other single article
that can be bought in the country.
It not only offers that easy method
of acquisition, but it offers aimost
as easy method of cashing if one i
must have the money. It offers |
perfect safety if one will take the
trouble of registering, and it offers I
a very handsome return in the 4 [
per cent compound interest if it is
carried to maturity. I believe that j
two billion of these stamps car. be |
sold in a year. That will be a j
very large order. Great Britain j
has made a great success of her
issue of war-savings certificates, but
in a year and a half she has sold
only about $600,000,000. But I
believe this country will absorb these
stamps so that the total issue will
be taken in a year . . . But to
my mind, that is one of the least
important things about this method
of finance. More important than
the raising of two billion dollars is
the instilling of habits of thrift in
this spendthrift people. I believe
that the lesson of this method of
financing will fast long after the
war and that it will go a long way
to recompense the horrible cost of
the war.”
Our motto: “LICK A THRIFT
STAMP AND HELP LICK THE
KAISER.”
