It has been proposed that the different clubs adopt the following war song; it fills the bill and the music could be easily arranged:
4"Sing A Song of Thrift Stamps,
A pocketfull of dough;
Sixteen little Thrift Stamps
Standing in a row.
When the War is over,
How happy I will be;
My four bucks will be five bucks in 1923."
