There are 90,000,000 of us in the United States—all in the
family of our own Uncle Sam. f
And Unde Sam needs money—your money—everybody's
money. He doesn’t ask you to give it to him; he wanft to borrow
and pay you interest for it
Maybe you didn't have $50 or $100 to lend him in Liberty
Bonds, but surely you have 25 cents. If we, all of us, buy one
thrift stamp—just one stamp apiece—that is $22,500,000, and if
everyone of us buys $4.12 worth—25 cents worth from time to
time for sixteen times—that’s $370,800,000.
Your pin money does help. Doesn’t it?
We don’t know how much money you have—how much—
how little. It doesn’t matter, anyway. For it is getting to a point
that every man—every woman—every boy—every girl—must
make the business of helping win this war — the most important
thing on earth.
Like the Liberty Bonds, the war savings certificates bear
4% interest On January 1,1923 each certificate will he worth $5-
These stamps are exchangeable at face value plus accumulated
interest at any time between now and January 1,1923.
