The loss of the domestic science building and music studio of Nacoochee Institute November 16 j means a severe blow to the school jat this season of the year, one | hundred and ten cords qf wood ; having been destroyed, together with the pump house, where the fire originated. The fire at once put the pumping plant out of commission, and water was car ried from nearby springs, and it appears that the other buildings escaped only through Providen tial changes in the wind during the progress of the fire. All of the buildings of the school plant are of wood con struction, and while the burned structure was insured, it hut em phasizes the need of permanent, fireproof buildings throughout the campus. Several years ago one of the buildings was burned. Only two coal furnaces are in use at the school, and for the greater part the rooms are heat ed by wood. With their winter supply destroyed, the school at once began a campaign for a truck with which to haul wood from a large sawmill four miles distant, and where a supply was offered the school. A Mrs. Phillips, member of First Presbyterian church, At lanta, gave the school a new Ford Truck, and one of the boys went down for it. Returning to Nacoochee Thanksgiving even ing, the new truck, greatly prized for its usefulness at this critical period, seemed to fit into the Thanksgiving service in progress, and it is now running on full time. Mrs. Phillips will ever be hailed as a friend of Nacoochee Institute. 666 l is a Prescription for Colds, Fe . ver and LaGrippe. It’s the most speedy remedy we know, prevent ing Pneumonia.

Since the war, and to take the place of war savings stamps, the Government offered Treasury savings certifi cates in denominations of $25, SIOO and SI,OOO, now sold to in vestors at $20.50, SB2 and SB2O, respectively. They pay 4 per cent if held until maturity, five years from the date of issue. About $625,000,000 of War Sav inps Stamps, series of 1918, be come due January Ist, 1923, and the Government now offers to issue Treasury savings certificates in exchange for them, affording the owners an opportunity to con tinue a investment with good interest. Saving has bur nished the life blood for many nations and insures prosperity to tie people. The Government is doing everything possible to en courage saving in the United States by offering sound and at tractive securities for the invest ment of small sums. If you want to save, and insure your future, it would pay you to investigate Uncle Sam’s Savings System. Notice to Public.
