A wasteful and thriftless people cannot win a war:
therefore the American people must see the need of
sacrifices, however small, for the nation. The war
savings certificates serve to measure those sacrifices,
and are now on sale at all postotlices and will be at
all banks so soon as the department can distribute
them. They make a good investment for your small
change as well as assisting in bringing the war to a
close: and to bring the war to a successful conclusion
as quickly as possible should be the aim of evfery
American. v
