I called myself up- for the savings front says Mr Forbes of Bournemouth

1 Jan 1942

"I called myself up- for the savings front" says Mr. G. FORBES, St. Peter's Road, Bournemouth. MR. FORBES is a man who thought he had retired. He thought so until May, 1940. Those grim days made him feel that he must do something and he turned at once to War Savings. Let him tell his own splendid story:— STARTED from scratch—not even "I in my own road. I got particulars of where help was needed from our local Savings Committee and began my work in Alma Road. I met with quite a fair response. After the Alma Road group was running, well, I organised another—and then others.
