This war is to be won not by one man or one thousand men or one million men, or one million people. It is to be won by the united ef< -J ,' I - , ... '? forts of the individuals of many na' tions. Every American citizen has an in 3 dividU&l duty to perform, an indit vidual share of the responsibility. " The more powerful and effective the American forces are the shorter will be the war, and the shorter the war i the fewer lives lost, the greater the j number of American soldiers who . will return home victorious. Every American who economizes i in consumption of material, who increases production, who saves and lands savings to the government, does something to help win the war. 5 HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS. To successfully finance the war it - is necessary that owners of Liberty ' bonds hold heir bonds if possible. Where for any good reason it is necessary for them to turn their bonds , into cash they .should seek the ads vice of their bankers. ! Liberty loan bonds are very de' sirable investments, and crafty individuals are using various means to secure them from owners not famf . . . . , iliar with stock values and like matters. One method is to offer to exchange for Liberty bonds stocks or bonds of doubtful organizations represented. as returning a much higher income than the bonds. There are various other methods . used and likely to be used, som? of the gold-brick variety and others less i crude and probably within the limits of tae law. All oners ior ijiDerty bonds except for money and at mar! ket value should be scrutinized care fully. The bonds are the safest of . investments and have nontaxable and other valuable features. I To hold your Liberty loan bonds, i if possible, is patriotic. To consult your bankers before selling them is wise. ^ 1 - _ JiWasa HI 11 Mis^rv HI! I * j f(n , Mrf. F. M.
