Every farmer in America is expected to support the Victory LibertyLoan, says Thomas C. Atkeson, the Washington representative of the National Grange Patrons of Husbandry, who has sent the following letter to the officers of every farm grange in the United States: " 'Victory Liberty' is the slogan for the new loan. The drive is to begin * A4 # iv. i . _ ? S April zjl. ior me saie 01 six uimuu dollars in Victory Liberty Bonds. These two words visualize all that is best in American spirit. American farmers must respond to this appeal. "What the farmers of America did in sacrifice and in accomplishment, in food production and in bond buying during the war is a part of the record It is a war record of which any class may be proud. It must be made good now by meeting the obligations which result from the outpouring of American Strength which conquered the enemies of Liberty and civilization. Time to Get Ready. "It is time to get into this Victory Liberty Bond campaign. No appeal of the war has gone unanswered to the full limit when brought to the atten-! r?f thp fsrmpr^ Men. monev. I wheat, other food?no matter what the obstacles or the difficulties?the answer has been full and certain. The answer must be the same in this coming drive. "Millions of soldiers must be brought home; thousands of sick must be cared for; thousands of wounded and mutilated must be made ready for future usefulness. We armed a nation and mobilised its resources into a war machine of such tremendous potential power that our enemies surrendered rather than face it, and thereby months or years of fighting and thousands of lives, were saved. Now we must pay the obligations created by this effort. Who can neglect to pay his just part for that which prevented so great a sacrifice of life and blood. World Warts Products. "There lies just outside the doors of the American farmer a hungry world, a world which needs all our products. American farming rests on the safe basis of need and service. The investment of the hard earned dollars of American farmers in Victory Liberty Bonds is a safe investment with a certainty of fair return, and the money will come back into circulation mafclag more business, increasing the j market and the demand for farm pro. ducts, and increasing prosperity Buying Victory Liberty Bonds will make farmers Victory-Liberty-Prosperit^-men. Do your part to put the Vioi torv Liberty Loan over the top. "Make your investment in Victory Liberty Bonds the measure of your confidence in American institutions and that democracy for which your sobs offered the supreme sacrifice; a symbol of your determination that the war shall not have been fought in vain; an offering of thanksgiving for peace." miiiios SI UP IK VALUE History of All Loans for a Century Shows That Advance Has Always Come with Peace. Will history repeat itself? That question is in the minds of many bond buyers these days. Records show that the prices of bonds were way down during war times of the past but soon after peace was declared advanced rapidly. During Napoleonic wars prices of English 3 per cent, consols ranged from 67%. the high and 54%, the low, in 1814 to 96% the high and 84% the I low, in 1824. During the same period French 5 per cent, rentes rose from 80. the high, in 1814 to 104.8 in 1824. They also went as low as 45 in 1814. French 5 per cent, rentes dunnf tne Franco-Prussian war ranged in price from 75.1 to 87 3 and 50.8 to 81.1. United States bonds during the ConI federate war sold for 95%, the high, and 83, the low, in 1861, but from then on they "had practically a steady rise until 1873. at which time the high was 123% and the low 111%. The tenforty-year bonds, put out in 1864 advanced from 103% to 116% in ten years. Four series of Liberty Bonds have been issued and the fifth?to be known as the Victory Liberty Loan? will soon be offered. These securities have behind them the mightiest protection ever devised?the resources and the pledge and the faith of one of the great nations of the world. The investment value of the bonds can merer decrease, for the interest will always be paid and the bonds will be redeemed at full face value at maturity: l LETHE Si EE )0i BUKEB: Offers Far Better Opportuni-J ties Than Those Enjoyed by; Thrifty People in France Who Claim Leadership. France has been called the thriftiest nation in the world.It claims to be. If we do not watch out she will prove it conclusively. America is the richest country on earth. Our per capita savings increased approximately 45 per cent in the last four years?the period of the war. Last year, for instance, the per capita savings in the South alone was $26.73. That sounds like we have the money, and we certainly have the will to make more. Uncle Sam is out to show you how. He wants to be your savings banker. He offers you not only 4 per cent, interest, compounded quarterly, but the government as security. There could not- be a better incentive for thrift! than that. The French people have! far less, yet they save more. They have no way to tfut their savings into small government securities, the popular denomination being that of five hundred francs, or $100. It would not be very convenient to j save if we had to put our pennies into ' an old stocking until we had accumu- j lated $100 as the French do ,would it? And the stocking doesn't pay any interest. So let Uncle Sam take care of your pennies?twenty-five of them buy a Thrift Stamp and sixteen Thrift Stamps converted into a War Savings Stamp begin earning compound interest for you immediately. Are we going to let the French beat us in thrift? j The man who gossips about others will gossip about you. COPY SUMMONS FOR RELIEF. (Complaint Served.) State of South Carolina, County of Bamberg.
