ON SUNDAY Weary Wilkins Is to Take the Offensive Against * General Waste “Weary” Wilkins will, Sunday, start of bis lagt drive to win the ‘war. Yup! You heart us right the first time—to win the wart ‘The mere fact that there tan’t any powderand-bullet war to win more does not deter “Weary” his purpose. “Weary"—rhose real name ts W A. Wilkina, a Seattle business man got such a start when Uncle Sam en. tered the big Burgpean muna, that de was unable to stop when the Yanks quit. And he's been going full lt, ever since .. j ; any from . “Weary's” weapons ‘thra the war were Thrift stamps. “Weary” has a “look” in his eye and a tongue fr his head which have sold thousands of dollars worth of Thrift stamps in the last three years. He's a big, honesttooking chap f|nd be Went soapboxing all over the state while the war was on, with surprising resulta. It was his “bit” for Uncle Sam + He butted into prize fights and furned them into Thrift stamp re ‘vival meetings He got himself arrested on the Main street of Spokane by prear Fangement with the police chief, Just %o draw the crowd. And then he In wited the crowd until it almost mob- Ded the cops. Having sold the crowd ‘Thrift stamps, he went to police Deadquarters and sold $500 worth of @tampe to the desk sergeant while he was being booked. “Weary” became one of the most moughtafter war speakers In the Northwest. Because he ts a born galesman and because he believes that thrift is America’s salvation from many of the civilization grow dng pains which beset her, he has Made the thrift campaign a huge suo co r eee “Weary” isn't selling many Thrift ‘Btamps any more. He ian't trying fo, in fact. Instead he ls preaching ‘Thrift and Americanism.” He will detiver a talk on this eub- Gect im the first of hin concluding @eries at the Green Lake Methodist burch Sunday night. | Every Sunday night thereafter um 1 January 1 he will talk thrift and Americanism at some church, Then he will fold up his Thrift stamp book ‘Qnd silently steal away back to pri- wate Life.
