sale for each business day of $2,-

Detailed' analysis of the daily sale
at each of the post offices through
out the country authorized to sell
savings bonds was begun on Sept. 1,
1986, and for the .year ending Aug.
31, 1937, showed that there was a
maturity value sale of $636,748,500,
or an average sale of $2,101,600 for
each business day for the first year
these records were kept.
Tabulations show for this period
of one year the rash sales of :he
first ten ranking cities, towns and
vilal'ges of the firts, second, third and
fourth class post offices, which led
the nation in their respective classes
in the sale of savings bonds for i-'iis
period.
Likewise, there is shown for the
same period the first, second third
and fourth class offices in each state
which lead in the total cash amount
of bonds sold.
Direct-by-mail and post offico
sales from Chicago 'give that city
the lead for the nation. Chicago’s
cash sale for the period was $?5,-
577.200.
Approximately 16,000 post offices
throughout the country are authoriz
ed to sell savinsg bonds.
The government to date actually
retains more than 92 percent of all
the money that has been invested in
savings bonds, less than 8 percent of
the 'bonds sold having been redeem
ed'.
The majority of the registered
owners are small investors who are
buying the bonds out of income.
Purchases by individuals represent
approximately 85 percent of 'he
amount of bonds sold. Of the refrain-
ing 16 percent, nine percent pur
chased by banks and trust compa
nies, 3 percent by corporations, and
approximately 3 per cent by assoeia
tions.

Recently a questionnaire was for
warded to th? owners of savings
bonds, and to date several hundred i
thousand replies have been received
by the Treasury Department. Pre-1
liminary examination of the replies
ind-'cates that most (purchases are
made to provide funds for education
of children, for retirement funds, o
to set .up a reserve for emergencies.
Among the features of the bonds
most frequently influencing theii
purchase are safety, the constant
availability of the funds and the
fact that savings bonds increase
33 1-3 percent in value if held for 19
years. The redemmtion feature, which
eliminates any chance of loss to the
investor, anneal.- to all purchasers.
The $100 bond' unit is the most
popular denomination and 'has ac
counted 1 for 30.38 percent of the
number of bonds sold. The $25 unit
ranks next with 23.71 ipercent of
sales. The $50 unit is next with a
sale of 18.49 percent. The $1,000 unit
follows with 18.19; while the $500
unit accounts for 9.23 percent.

A toll, handsome brunette of rare

had a 'beautiful arched moustache
and black curly hair.
He begun ins performance fry tell

that his uncle died and willed him a

showed it to the audience. To our
dismay it was empty or, at least ap

thing he -wished out with a prayer.
Many other interesting tricks fol

the hat trick! After borrowing Mr.

Each and every one enjoyed the
