War Savings "Stamps
As the war progresses it .is im-
perative that more and more of the
peoples' earnings be applied toward
themaintaining costs' alour Fight-
ing
I'rght-
ing Forces and supplying them with
all the necessary war equipment to
successfully meet the enemy.
To that
end it is ho
po d that the
sale of War Savings Stamps can be
greatly increased. Heretofore the
Post Offices • and the Banks have- been
the . only "Official Agents" for the
sale of these stamps. `A plan is now
under way to interest all local merc+it-
ants'to become "Official Agents" and
this week the merchants of Clinton,
and in fact through the whole of the
Dominion, will be interviewed with
the prospect that they will assume,
each his fair share, of the respon-
sibility of becoming an "Official
Agent" for the sale of stamps and
thus make them readily available to
the public.
It is believed that the local march-
ants will heartily endorse this plan,
but the final successrests with the
buying public. All purchasers of
goods at retail stores are urged when
paying their accounts or snaking
purchases to use their change to buy
War Savings Stamps. Do so regular-
ly and systematically. Convince your
merchant of your interest in the plan.
Show the County that Clinton can do
its fair share in any worthy project.
And demonstrate to Dominion head-
quarters
eadquarters that Huron is still. the Ban-
ner County in every good work.
Buy War Savings Stamps regular-
ly. Available at your local merchant
displaying the official. emblem.
