Let him be your children's adviser in the matter of thrift. Let him show them what it means to substitute Interest-bearing Thrift Stamps for the penny savings bank. Let him be the medium to put your chil dren into actual contact with their country's government The Thrift Stamp represents to the children what the Liberty Bond represents to adults. The penny embodies war power just as the dollar, for pennies make dollars. The Thrift Stamp idea is .designed to reach those who think in terms of cents. The power of the penny is shown by the fact that the government hopes to raise two billions of dollars from the sale of these stamps. Thrift Stamps make a reality of the children's patriotism by allowing them to aid the govern ment with money for war purposes. A child's savings may be a means to shortening this war by days, and every day means the redemption of colossal waste. Thrift Stamps cost 25c each. Books of 16, with a few cents added, are at any time exchange able for certificates which will be worth $5.00 in 1923. These Stamps are received as payments on Liberty Bonds. You may obtain them at any Post Office, your mail carrier, and at most stores. tototototototototototo Thi AdvrtUmtnt Paid for and Donated by totototototototototo to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to' to JORDAN & HYDE Men's and Ladies' Goods, Prineville, Oregon
