But it is par- wasteful now, because prices are so high that citizen should make all possible efforts to go without the lutely necessary things. “The less buying we do the sooner ticularly every good everything bu abso- prices will come down to what they should be. Besides that, Uncle Sam needs the money.” “It looks like you cared more for Uncle Sam than you did for me. You are always telling me to go without things and buy Thrift Stamps to help Uncle Sam,” retorted Betty. “You little girl, Betty, or you would not say such are a very thoughtless things.
