BORN OF WAR It is difficult yet to value accurately or in some instances to perceive all the qar has brought to our national life or pruned from it. The ' things we think little now may appear to posterity the greatest. The Thrift Stamp idea seems to be one of these, (Originated as a war emergency meas- ure, it has taken hold; has appealed to the cgmmon sense of America, and may yet shape.the destiny of the nation. It is patent, now that the war is over, that ‘the Thrift Stamp has come to stay. If we get nothing else out of the war but the habit of saving, which begets the corollary simple living, we will have reaped the full frdit of the war. For a ‘thrifty democracy is a firm democracy, a potent democracy, a democracy strong enough to pre- serve itself. A man who saves is a better citizen than the man who does not save. He becomes a stockholder in his govern- ment and he is jealous for. the wel- fare of that government in war and in peace. In war he will fight for it with his life. In peace he will protect it front those who would tear down. As America saves from this day on so shall she grow in benign power and in the eyes of mankind. “A bank ac- count for every. American citizen” should be one of our national slogans. The Thrift.and War Savings Stamp idéa is freighted with a mighty ehange for the better in our national life, The Thrift Stamp is backed by ‘the United States government. Without doubt it is the greatest investment ever offered and it is in such a form that every American, big and little, can take tian di o* it, “WHO SAYS IT?

The nations of the world are going tc rate us on this last effort.

Even a combination of powers inclined to start another’ war) would hesitate in the face of such a display of tremendous national strength. Bvery ‘man who buys @ Victory~Lib- erty Bond next April, moreover, will be adding to the determination with which America speaks at the Peace Conference. There aré’ undoubtedly going to'be many moments during that Conference when every whit of the power of the United es will, be needed to shape into actualities those ideals for which we entered the worl! struggle. 4 Let the cables carry into the Que! d'Orsay. this message; “America has oversubscribed he!
