After you have paid" it off and squared your account with the government and your own American conscience you will, have reason to feel a little proud of yourself. Then get ready at once - to do your part when the Victory Liberty Loan is offered.' - A Liberty Bond is the gov ernment’s solemn promise to pay at the given time the sum nominated on the ** face of -the bond. It is goodbyes, even bet ter than Gold Certificate. The latter is money in hand but it does not pay you interest"auto : matically, A Liberty Bond does pay you interest and a very good rate of interest at that. No one could go in debt for a better in vestment because more than 100v000,000 Americans and the entire.resources of the United States are behind that promise fore they sfiend their, surplus. The wisest of all are putting a large share of their earning to pay ; and as surely as tomor row follows today every dollar of interest will be paid when it is due and tlie bond will be re deemed at its full face value when it reaches maturity.

The fact that South Carolina was congratulated on having the most complete organization to date in the fifth Federal Reserve District at tjjre Confer ence of State Chairman held in Richmond Friday, March 21, gives every loyal citizen's right to be proud.
