Are You Buying

THRIFT STAMPS

EVERY DAY}

If you buy 250 Thrift? Stamps at the rate
of only one a day, and exchanged each
book. of 16 (with a few cents added) for a

certificate worth $5.00 in 1923, you are saving
money at the rate of $10.00 a month.

Good investment, isn’t it? And a patriotic habit
besiides— for every single Thrift Stamp is a little
added momentum behind the one great common
desire—to shorten this war.

 
 

Thrift Stamps are for sale at the poatoffice,
by all mail carrier: and at
