The story of an original German

It appears that this man, Gramatski,
condemned to iznprisonment by the
Norwegten egurts, and tieing time in

reaticat treatise and composed an
opera. Qwtng to his good conduct his

was about to be liberated when he
begged to be allowed to finish hits
sentenee, declaring that he was en-
gaged on a translation of Lund's
treatise on• mathematics, a work of
national importance. Gramatski of-
fered to play some of the airs of bis
opera on the flute tor the entertain-
ment of the court, but the court did
• not appear particularly inclined to
hear them. The Norwegian authori-
ties are considering what had best

Why Saving is Necessary .
Canadians must Me, if they are to
pass safely through the financial and
industrial conditions following the war.
They must save Nat as carefully as they
did when tbe Germans were hammering
at the gates of A miens,The Government
has made this profitable through its
War Saving Plan, which gives 'good
returns. • .
The Great War has changed very
much our conceptions of national
finance. Before its outbreak the impres-
sion that prevailed was that through
borrowing abroad capital coeld be
raised for development purpoees. Con-
sequently the need of saving was igsok-,
ed,
- But even borrowing implies that
some one saves, so that in the pre-war
days Canadians, Instead of suppling
their own needed capital, were really
drawing on the savings of people a-
broad. This they can do no henget'.
The War Savings Plan is a ,conven-
lent and easy Method for gathering up
the surplus money of Canadians and
• placintit at the disposal of the Govern-
mente-fdr five years. A person pays
$4.og for a Wer Saving •Stamp—he
can buy as, many as he likes—and for
this the GovernMent pays $5.00 in
