“A VALUABLE PRIZE
IH EVERY PACKAGE ! ”
The OLD-TIME pitchman had to con
vince his customers that they were get
ting something for nothing.
And he could always find customers—
hopeful people, who wanted to believe him.
All of us have some degree of this very
human failing—wanting to trust to luck
—hoping things will come the easy way.
Even when we know they won’t.
Those who are really smart may keep
hoping for luck—but they go right ahead
working out a good, sound plan to cushion
unexpected emergencies and provide ulti
mate financial security. They save money
regularly.
Most smart people know that the easiest
and the safest way to save money today
is by buying U. S. Savings Bonds where
they work or where they bank—through
the Payroll Savings Plan or the Bond-A
Month Plan.
And there is a valuable prize in every
package. Every Bond you buy will in
crease one-third in value in ten years.
Even an old-time pitchman couldn’t
have resisted a proposition like this.
Save the easy automatic way—
with U.S. Savings Bonds
