charity explained supt bupt thompson when we a buy thrift stamps we place our money in a safe investment guaranteed by uncle sam than whom hom there is no better guarantee in the whole world we americans continued mr thompson have a reputation of being thriftless by buying thrift stamps then wo we are going to overcome we hope at least the habit of useless buying wast wasteful eaul and I 1 might say in some instances shameful spending but just now uncle sam in offering thrift stamps for sale has a purpose in view he fie has men on the battle field those men mau some of them our boys must be clothed fed and eared cared for whether fighting in the trenches or in the hospital it is tor for the welfare of those men for the safety of our people our nation the democracy of the world that uncle sam is asking us to stop our useless thriftless spending our shiftless wasteful living we talk about sending more men to war we are loosening up our grip on our men and boys that is fathers and mothers are doing it let us of 0 the younger generations tighten up on our useless spending and loosen our hold on every cent of spare money and money we think we to spare that we might keep at least within the dust of our parents while hile in the race of helping to win this war i mr touched on many vital topics relating to our les ies in this war and sound principles in farm practice we in this asin hardly know w are at war why in salt lake they have their wheat less and meatless days money cant buy either meat nor wheat bread on those days I 1 have seen men try to buy those commodities but they were told that those things be bought any price and yet here some of us are still talking about feeding wheat to hogs hoga because it is cheap dont be surprised if the government calls tor for all the spare wheat and some besides and the question of transportation costs wont be in the bargain at all we should not let present low prices interfere with our coming seasons cropping system
