An dlifsfanding buBMer of Horn tells you

How Savings Bonds
can help you
TszmM, your
DREAM HOME
Mr. George S. Goodyear,
President, National
Association of Home
Builders
Part of every Americans
savings belongs in ^
U. S. Savings Bonds
"Maybe an American family
starts with a dropped hand
kerchief. But somewhere
along the line, even before
the ring, the dreams start.
One of the big things in those
dreams is a house of your own,
a house that’s just the way
you want it. And for more
than a million American
families a year, that dream
comes beautifully true when
they first cross .the threshold of their wonderful
new home.
"We’ve learned plenty from home buyers about what
they want in houses and a little bit about how they
save that first down payment. Many of the people
with whom I’ve talked found the easiest and surest
way to save was by regular investment in U. S.
Series E Savings Bonds.”
★ ★ ★
It’s easy to understand why. By putting money in
Bonds, people are less inclined to spend it until they’ve
reached their goal. And Bonds are a safe, sure in
vestment The U. S. Government guarantees your
principal in Savings Bonds—up to any amount—and
the rate of interest you receive.
If you’re saving for the home of your dreams, why
not do it the easy way by regular investment in U. S.
Savings Bonds? Start today either through the Pay
roll Savings Plan where you work or by buying
Bonds often where you bank.
