THRIFT CAMPAIGN TO GO HAND ;
IN HAND WITH HOOVER WORK
- Thrift clubs will be given up, according
to the plans of the Liberty Loan depart-
ment. The committee feels that the col-
lege is over-organized, and ‘that only a
small percentage of students belonged to
the clubs. Better results can be obtained,
they believe, through active publicity,
combined with the efforts of the Food
Conservation Department.
Sale of Thrift and War Saving Stamps
Students in each hall have definite
hours for selling Thrift Stamps. War
ig Stamps, in-exchange for filled
Thrift Cards, can be obtained during the
quarantine through Miss Franklin, chair-
man of the Liberty Loan Committee.
They may also be sold in Taylor by Mr.
McAllister, Bryn Mawr postmaster. The
Thrift Stamp agents not published in last
week’s News are: Rockefeller, E. Matti-
son '21; Denbigh, K. Townsend '20; Rad-
nor, H. Goldstein, graduate; Llysyfran, F.
