Ever since the war. bonds began to mature there have been numerous inquiries at the Chief Post Office in Dun<edin about the ways to reinvest, ami the officials readily supply definite information, to the effect that a war bond can bo exchanged for a credit in the Post Office Savings Bank or for stock in the shape of 6 per cent, debentures or inscribed stock having a currency of five to ten years. Many persons (says the Star) elect to so reinvest in preferleneo to taking a cash redemption. The process of reinvestment is very simple. An Inquirer is not bundled about from pillar to post, or put off with indefinite answers. He is civilly and quickly put in the way of doing the business in the space of a minute or two. This expeditions business is much to t^ie liking of women,who do the household fiiuimcing. The holder of the first war certificate issued in Dunedin is a messenger in one nf the banks. He has had the date affixed and the "No. 1." and intends to preserve it as a memento of the troublous period.
