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.
MRS. YANCEY CALLED
TO HER REWARD
In the death of Mrs. W. H. Tan
cey at Portland yesterday morning,
following an operation, Kelso lost
one of its long time residents and an
active worker in all community af
fairs. Although friends knew of
Mrs. Yancey's serious condition when
she went to Portland a short time
ago, news of her passing spread gen
eral sorrow.
Hulda Ann Rhea was born at Eu
gene, Oregon, August 2, 1S67, and
resided there until she was 12 years
of age, when the family moved to
Eastern Oregon. Here, as In the
Willamette Valley, the Rheas were
well associated with that sturdy race
of pioneers who cleared the way for
the generation that has followed. On
July 4th, 1882, Hulda was married at
The Dalles, Ore., to William Henry
Yancey. In 189 the family moved
to Kelso, then a small village, and
have lived here continuously since
that time.
Mrs. Yancey was one of those rare
spirits who find their way into the
hearts of all. She was dearly loved
by all who knew her, children and
adults alike; always forgetful of self;
always doing something for others.
her life has indeed been a blessing,
and this world is brighter because
she lived. Her wonderful vitality
and indomitable cocurage during her
illness of recent years was marvelous.
She was a patient and uncomplaining
sufferer, of an unusually cheerful dis
position. For several years shp had
been active in the work of the Chris
tian Church, of which she was a
prominent member. She was also a
member of the Ladles of the Macca
bees, and has held many important
offices in that Order. She died in
St. Vincent's Hospital in Portland on
Tuesday, December 4, 1917, at the
age of 60 years, 4 months and 2
days. She leaves a devoted husband,
five children, Claude, Frank, Mrs.
Laura Morgan of Albany, Ore., Ed
win and Ray; an aged mother, Mrs.
M. A. Donaldson, of Condon, Ore.;
five sisters, Mrs. O. C. Veatch, of
Condon, Ore.; Mrs. C. D. Barnard,
Fossil, Ore.; Mrs. Henry Pies, Sal
berry, Ore.; Mrs. A. T. Tlllard, Doug
las, Wyo.; Mrs. T. W. Wyatt, Santa
Cruz, Calif.; three half sisters, Mrs-
R. L. Brackett, Portland; Mrs. P. Y.
McCarter, Vancouver, B. C; Mrs.
Jas. Luper, Heppner, Ore.; also three
half brothers and two grandchildren.
