United States Savings Bonds mean more
with every passing year
FOR THE YOUNGSTERS:
Make sure they have the
bright and shiny things—
the toys and games that
fascinate and delight. But
give them something of
permanent value, too . . . U. S. Savings Bonds.
They’ll appreciate your foresight later on when
their Bonds help them through college or, per
haps, into business. And Bonds teach a valuable
lesson about the benefits of a wise investment. {
FOR YOUR WIFE OR HUSBAND: Whether it be a
new home, a “dream” vacation or early retire
ment, bring that long-awaited goal closer with a
U. S. Savings Bond. Bonds now earn interest for
as long as 19 years and 8 months. So this gift will
still be saying “Merry Christmas” in 1974.
FOR MOM AND DAD: What could be a happier
Christmas gift than the feeling of added security
that goes with every Bond they own? And Bonds,
with their average 3% annual interest, compounded
every 6 months when held to maturity, give them
a wonderful source of extra earnings.
FOR YOURSELF: Give yourself an added measure of
security with U. S. Savings Bonds. Sign up where
you work for the Payroll Savings Plan—the easiest
savings plan ever devised. Just tell the people in
your pay office what you want to save, and they’ll
put that amount aside for you each payday. When
enough accumulates, they buy and turn over to
you an interest-earning U. S. Savings Bond. If
you’re self-employed, your banker will enroll you
in the Bond-A-Month Plan.
If you want your interest as current income, ask your
banker about 3% Series H Bonds that pay interest
semiannually by Treasury check.
Give the gift of security—
with United States Savings Bonds!
