Children can help to win the war
If they save each penny and dime.
If they do without candy and movies and gum
They’ll have a quarter in time.
And a quarter will buy a Thrift Stamp
So, children, all of you try
For every little Thrift Stamp
Is a War Stamp by and by.
Enter 12 girls in white holding green cards on which are huge white letters spelling Thrift Stamps.
| 1st. | Tiny little Thrift Stamps, bright and green and new, |
