NO SACRIFICE WHEN BUYING W. S, STAMPS »—CARTER OLAS*. S lji 60,000 Win Sltt UWS Made Rad Sacrifices. - Cwambhl/D: —(Sjwcui.)— Dop?* eating th* suggestion that American people have been called upon tomake tre a t sacrifices by investing in COY* •rnmeot securitie*', -Carter Class, Secretary of the Treasury, in a late Statement declares that such invest­ ment can not be considered in the light of sacrifice, "particularly when ire contrast It with the fact Jffiat 4,000,000 American boys enlisted in the service to give their lives for your liberty and for the liberty of your country.” Only the 60,000 men who lie buried under the sod of France made real sacrifices, Secretary Glass declared. "That was r e a l. sacrifice, and we should, not profane the memory of those men who died and-of the tliou-, Haftd* of others who were wounded by comparing their sacrifice with al­ leged sacrifices In Investing In War Savings Stamps, and ,in, other fino , securities of this government/' he re­ marked. Secretary Glass said: "It is a vast mistake to conceive the notion that thrift and savings are synonymous of miserliness, It is a a virtue, it is a righteousness which needs to fas taught j|£- the American ^people, ' “I believe War Savings workers are laying a permanent, stable foundation (or the acquisition of a habit by the American people which hitherto has been neglected and which has been so serviceable and essential in the operation of other nations.'” “BRING ’EM BACK’’ W. S. S. CLUBS FAVORED BYGOV. COX* Governor James M. Cox has given-his indorsement o f the Ohio "War Savings Committee's “Bring 'Elm Back Club" plan of securing War Savings Stamp pledges.

War Savings - Stamps' happily combine t^e ' meins by which- the Citizens of Ohio may give expression, to their loyalty to their ,spl- *f diera and sailors, to their country, and at the same time benefit themselves/' Major Charles S.

In 1889, Dr. Thompson, was president of 'the Ohio Sunday School Asso­ ciation and, Mr. Lawrence was secretary.. Their‘co-operation at that time was responsible for remarkable strides in the ’'work, of the organization. Now, in< 1919, people interested in the new movement are Iqoklng to1this team for even 'greater results, Being president of a great university would seem quite enough for some people, but not so with Dr. Thompson, He was elected president of the Inter­ national Sunday School Association last year. H e'is an ordained Presby­ terian minister, a g-raduat > lawyer, former president of two pother colleges, practical.farmer, and successful business man, as proved In his capacity of president of a we.l known insurance company.

Three years, later, in 1876, he became superin­ tendent of the Sunday School, and .held the position for thirty-one years," until his; removal to Chicago in l907.

It has become one of the pattern- ^undaiy Schools of the world,. The main characteristics of the school are described In the book by Mr. La-wrance, “How to Conduct a Sunday School.” Dr, Thompson and Mr. Lawrance are enthusiastic In their support of -the Sunday SchooNcampaign for a firm financial foundation. They-believe that the future of Christianity is largely depehfleut on the work of the Sunday School, “We could not do a better thing,” says Dr. Thompson, “than to go into France and rebuild the church, so that the children of France may know the church as we linoyv- it,” Together'th^se associates of a third of a century are working to put across the Ohio quota of $1,00,900 in record, "timer* ?~* 1 ** ^ - — - - r a r e s t y l i s h — v e r i j s t y l i s h M OSER ’ Shoe Store Xenia^ - O.
