And Have Extra Money To Do Christmas Gift Buying! It is in troubled times like these that the sentiment of Christmas giving becomes more precious. You wouldn't for the world want to be unable to give to your dear ones—so start saving now for next year. Then, what­ever responsibilities you will have to meet, you will still have money set aside for Christmas gift purchasing. That's the Christmas Club way— and it's a wonderful way, especially during1 the war time, because Christ­mas Club savings—just like any other—are used by our government to buy the fighting machines of Victory (until you're ready to withdraw your funds.)
