“MY NEST EGG- AND THE WAR LOAN?”
“EVE managed to save a few, pounds from my earnings, and have lodged it in the post office savings bank against sickness or other misfortune. If any misfortune should come upon me I can draw on it at short notice. If, on the other hand, I invest my savings in war certificates, the money will be tied up for a period of live years. Again, I may want to use portion of my savings to improve my house or invest in something else, but I am debarred if my savings are tied up in war certificates.” These arc some objections raised by numbers of people with small “nest eggs,” They need have no fear by investing in war certificates. Money lodged in the post office is earning 3.1 per cent., and is at. call. If invested in, the war loan .the rate of interest is increased tj/fee-quarter per cent., and the certificates can be utilised for any purpose as a medium of exchange, There is nothing to lose, but something to gain by transferring post office deposits into war certificates. As the close on Monday, small investors should lose no time in making applications.
