The raccoon that
wouldn't come down
They said old Andrew Jackson was so
fierce he could stare a raccoon out of a tree.
So (the story goes) a friend made a bet on it. And "Old.
Hickory," who could be as obliging as he was
terrifying, set out to help his friend win.
One night he and the financially interested parties
went into the moonlit woods. They spotted their game,
a small round silhouette high on a limb.
Fixing his baleful eye on the target, Andrew Jackson
stared. He scowled. He glowered. He glared all night
but the raccoon never came down.
Even so, Andrew Jackson hadn't failed. For at sunup
the men saw that what he had been staring at wasn't a
raccoon after all, but a huge knot on the tree. And
he had stared some of the bark off thatl
A TALL STORY. But no taller than the man,
born 188 years ago, about whom it was told.
For rough, tough Andrew Jackson soldier at 13,
senator at 30, major general at 35, and our seventh
president at the climax of his career was one of
the true giants of our nation's youth. Personally
fearless, relentless toward his enemies, but self
reliant, honest and straightforward, he was' the
very embodiment of the early American spirit.
That spirit is as vital today as it was then. And
you are an active part of it every time you invest
in another United States Savings Bond.
For Bonds, which pay you good interest (3 com
pounded semiannually, when held to maturity)
can make you personally independent in the best
American tradition.
If you haven't already started on the Savings
Bond road to individual security and independ
ence, why not begin today?
