PATTERSON & SON THE aM STORE THE WAR SAVINGS PLAN -GIVEN IN A NUTSHELL The Government's War Savings Plan, is a plan by which you can lend small savings to your government at four per cent Interest, compounded quarterly. You lend to your government by the purchase of War savings certi ficates and thrift stamps. A war savings certificate costs $4.12, if purchased this month or next the cost to advance one cent each succeeding month during 1918. On January 1, 1923, the certificate will mature and the Government will j'pay you $5 for it. A thrift stan'.j is a stamp costing 25 cents to be applied in payment for a war savings certificate. It does nol earn interest, its purpose being to help purchasers to accumulate in 25 cent pieces, the amount necessary to pay for a war savings certificate. War savings certificates and thrift stamps con be purchased at your post office, from your city or rural mall carrier, at your city banks, and from your merchants and other authorized agents. Though money with which to carry on the war to victory is the Immediate consideration in the Government's thrift stamp appeal, real and lasting benefits to the nation are going to accrue by virtue of the more general practice of national thrift which the campaign is expected to develop. The Government hopes to make us a more thrifty people, not merely for the duration of the war but for all the time. Uncle Sam feels that If he can make us a nation of savers he will have made us a nation of servers to all mankind. S Charles N. Wonacott, assistant general secretary of the Portland Y. M. C. A., is now directing his major energies for the success of the War Savings campaign, having accepted the campaign In Oregon. Mr. Wona cott went over the top with Oregon in , the recent Red Cross and Y. M. C. A. , fund raising campaigns, and he holds I that the new thrift program, provld i ing for the loan of small savlnsrs to I the government for war work, Is Just ;as essential and important as the larger Liberty Loan Investments.
