From the above and foregoing re-
port of sales of War Savings stamps,
during the month of May, will be no-
ticed the fact that very few stamps
are being bought at a number of the
postoffices, while at others, either no
sales have been made, or, in some in-
stances your chairman has not even
received the courtesy of a report.
“The present movement to develop
THRIFT as an enduring American
trait, is vitally necessary to the sta-
bility and prosperity of our country.
Every citizen can do his or her part
by saving systematically a part of his
or her earnings, and placing it in a
safe investment such as War Savings
Stamps and Certificates. They pay a
high rate of interest and directly aid
the government in carrying out ifs
new Peace Time work. Besides, they
lay the foundation for the buyer's
financial independence and success.
Let us resolve today to achieve our
own independence, safety and pros-
perity by steadily practicing _intelli-
gent thrift and systematic saving, and
in so doing live up to our allegiance
to “Old Glory.”
Let us resolve right now to begin
buying W. S. S. and certificates to the
full limit of our ability.
On about June 1st, 1918, Centre
county had a per capita of $5.61, and
at this time we have a per capita of
only $1.52, which indicates that the
WAR-TIME PRESSURE of 1918 was
responsible for many savings. This
is a THRIFT and SYSTEMATIC sav-
ing proposition. It is not only that,
but it is also a good, first-class in-

vestment, at a large rate of interest |
and free ‘from taxes.
Centre county retains second place
in the list of counties in the Eastern
district of Pennsylvania, with Union
county still leading with $3.91 per
capita.
It is up to every person to re-en-
list in the purchase of these govern-
ment securities. Let us “make good”
our per capita in 1919, and in order to
do so, you will appreciate the fact
that we MUST begin PURCHASING
AT ONCE, and MUST PURCHASE
to the full Timit of our ability.
Very truly yours,
W. HARRISON WALKER,
Chairman tE S. 8. Committee

The Motor Bus and Pneumatic Tires.
Making money by establishing mo-
tor lines for the transportation of
passengers and freight presents to-
day one of the best fields of opportu-
nity for the man with a little capital
at his disposal, in the ppinion of the
United States Tire company.
The development of lines of this
sort between towns and cities has on-
ly just begun, and is certain to grow
tremendously in the next few years.
The opportunities are especially good
in sections where railroad service is
not good. But even in parts of the
country where the railroad schedules
are the best, auto lines are doing a
good business hauling freight.
The perfecting of the large pneu-
matic tires of the United States Tire
company has been one of the most im-
portant steps in making this devel-
opment possible. Big vehicles are
necessary to carry heavy loads of
passengers or freight, and the big
pneumatics make it possible for
trucks and large busses to travel be-
tween towns at a speed and with a
comfort unobtainable on solid tires.
Passengers can be carried over
long distances with as little jar as in
a limousine, while fragile commodi-
ties, such as eggs, can be hurried to
market with little danger of damage.
Incidentally, the cars can be operated
at much less expense on pneumatics
than on solids.
It was in 1910 that the United
States Tire Co. developed the large
pneumatic truck tire, and it is worthy
of note as illustrating the extra life
that comes to a truck from riding on
pneumatics, that several of the first
trucks equipped with the big tires
are still doing hea service every
day. All other trucks of that day
have long since gone to the scrap
eap.
One of the facts about which far-
mers comment is the lack of damage
to roads by heavy vehicles traveling
on the big pneumatics. The #ax-pay-
ing farmers view with dissatisfaction
any conveyance which tears up their
roads, but their comments en motor
cars equipped with large pneumatics
are entively commendatory.

Pigeon to Receive the D. S. C.
At least one of the one thousand
pigeons that have returned from
France after helping to win the war
will be decorated for distinguished
service. “Cher Ami,” the pigeon that
carried the message to Gen. Per-
shing’s headquarters, announcing the
victory of the Yankees in the Ar-
gonne, will be given such honor. Cher
Ami is the feathered hero that flew
thirty-seven miles after its left leg
had been torn away by an enemy bul-
let, and delivered intact the dispatch
with which it had been entrusted.
Cher Ami was also one of the pig-
eons that carried dispatches announc-
ing the plight of Lieut Col. Whittle-
sey and his lost battalion, to which
aid was immediately sent.
For these heroic deeds Cher Ami
has been recommended by Gen Persh-
ing for the D. S. C. The pigeon will
from now on have the best of quar-
ters in Washington, a plentiful ra-
tion, and all proper care.
Next War the Greatest.

Future and the Next Great War.” He

Look out for the unnatural weak-
ness that indicates thinning of the
blood and lack of power. It means
that your bodily organs are starving
for want of good nourishmefit; that
the red corpuscles are fewer, unequal
to demands of health. Hood’s Sarsa-
parilla increases strength of the deli-
cate and nervolis, restores red cor-
puscles, makes the blood carry health
to every part, creates an appetite.
If you need a good cathartic medi-
