Total na tional income over $300,000,000,000.00! Total national product the value of goods and serv ices produced $381,000,000,000.00! If s wonderfull And it can continue if we handle this prosperity with common sense. If each 0 us, as an individual citizen, manages his own financial affairs with care. One of the most important things to do is to save sensibly now. Right now, when your earning power is at a peak, put something away for yourself every payday systematically. The best way is to sign up for U. S. Savings Bonds through the Payroll Savings Plan where you work. This automatically does your saving for you. As little as $3.75 a week will give you over $1000.00 cash in just 5 years. Another way is to buy Bonds regularly where you bank. A Bond a month, at $37.50, in 9 years and 8 months builcjs to $4,913.40! Make yourself do it today you'll thank yourself tomorrow! Here are three reasons why U. S. Savings Bonds should be an important part of your investment program. They are safe your prin cipal is never subject to market fluctuation. They're w Bonds pay an average of 3 per year, compounded semiannually when held to maturity (9 years and 8 months). And they can go on earning 3 for another 10 years after that. They're liquid you can al ways cash them, if you have to, after you've held them for two months. Treasury Secretary Humphrey said, (on June 24, 1955), "We believe at this time of great pros perity that all of us Government, business, and individuals alike should exercise self restraint in the use of public or private credit and the accumulation of debt." Let's apply his words to our private affairs and preserve this prosperity for ourselves and our children! hall are tnpelher. wp should takp more care in how it looks Let's keep our wrappers and papers off the flooor and out of empty desks Keep our school neat and clean. Put magazines back in the maga zine rack as soon as you are through reading them, then they will not get lost so easily. Treat our magazines as if they were regular books, do not mark in them and cut out articles with out permission. Keep our books and magazines whole. There has been quite a conver sation about boys and girls who are staying within the rules and regulations in sports. Some think the girls keep the boys out past their curfew, and when they do the boys cannot play ball the next game, although-he goes in as a sub. Also talk Is going around about boys drinking and smoking, who are on the basketball team. Say kids, what are we going to do about this?
