| PRIVILEGE TO SUPPORT LOAN
BY CALEB n. CANDY.
Former President, Chicago Board Of
Trade.

The United States Is engaged in a
righteous war, war upon the result
of which depends not only the future
OF free representative governments In
all parts of the world, but the future
peace and prosperity of all peoples.
Every man, woman and child, from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, should
fully appreciate, and believe does
appreciate, the fact, that 1t Is duty
Of the highest order, and a privilege
greater than any other. to support the
second installment Of the Liberty Loan,
which will help to bring the war to a
successful and early conclusion.
There will be presented to us Octo-
Der 1st the opportunity to perform this
vital service for our country. This
service calls for practically no per-
sonal sacrifice other than the Invest
ment of our surplus funds In secur-
ity Of the highest order based upon
practically all the vast resources of
the United States.
No subject Is Of greater importance
to each Of us personally, and from the
standpoint Of self-interest as well as
patriotism we should one and all give
this loan our hearty support, with the
thought constantly in our minds that
upon us In this essential matter de-
pends to large degree not only our
future peace and happiness, but the
peace, happiness and prosperity of our
children and our childrens children.

WHY WE DID 1T.
BY ELLIS PARKER BUTLER,
Humorous Writer.

In our little town of Flushing, on
Long Island, with less than 10000 in
habitants, we took subscriptions for
the first Liberty Loan issue to total
of $1,O44,000, or an amount equal to
one $50 bond for every man, woman,
youth and baby in the town. This
amount was subscribed through the
three local banks. Most of our citl-
zens do business in New York and
many are connected with financial in
stitutions there or subscribed In New
York before our campaign was started.
Flushing probably took $2,000,O00 of
the first issue. Although several long
term payment plans were in operation.
the bulk of these bonds have been
paid for now. Flushing will buy more
than her share Of the new issue. Why7
Those who bought bonds bought
them for two reasons-patriotism and
investment. A great many who bought
from patriotic motives have discovered
that 1t Is easier than they ever imag-
ined to save money. They were glad
to help Uncle Sam; now they are glad
to own bonds. In Flushing those who
bought Liberty Bonds will buy more
because they have found It the easiest
way to save money; those who did not
buy before will buy now. because they
have neighbors who tell them they
were foolish to miss the first chance.
The Owosso times., 1917-10-19
LIBERTY ENRICHING THE WORLD.
ON ASKING THE FARMER TO
BUY A BOND.

Too many farmers, last summer
neglected to buy Liberty bonds. We
are willing to be charitable and be-
3ieve they neglected this duty through
procrastinatiOn, or lack of funds, or
for some other reason more or less
unavoidable.
At any rate. the fact remains that
they didn't subscribe to the first Lib
erty Loan, and since then, no doubt,
their conscience hasn't been resting
well o. nights. Now they have an op-
portunity to ease that troubled con-
science. There's a second Liberty
Loan on now, offering a better invest
ment than even the first one offered,
and the advice Of this publication to
farmers everywhere Is this:
If you failed. to invest in the first
loan, go straight to your banker, with
'cat a moments delay, AMI invest in
loan number two. Plunge into 1t up
10 your eyebrows, for you've got to
atone. remember, for what you failed
80 do last May and June.
IF you did invest In the first loan,
then hold on to your interim certifi-
Gates and later exchange them for the
second issue bonds, which will pay a
higher rate Of interest. No charge
will be made for this exchange, and
Secretary Of the Treasury McAdoO will
presently name the date upon which
the exchange may be made.
But don't hesitate to buy bond of
this second issue simply because you
bought one or more Of the first. You
cannot own too many of these bonds.
They're the safest investment on earth,
and one of the most profitable. So
long as. the United States government
indures, they cannot depreciate in
value.
Then, too. Of course, there is a
higher reason why every farmer should
have a Liberty bond in his home.
Even though they paid no interest
whatever, they should be In every
farmhouse In America. The owner
ship of a Liberty bond is sufficient
proof that the farmer has emerged
triumphantly from an acid test of his
patriotism. Liberty bond owners need
never protest that they are true-blue
Americans. Their bonds prove they
are.

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD BUY
A BOND
BY EDWARD BOX,
Editor, Ladies' Home Journal.


Every woman who can should buy
one of the new Bonds because
First: 1t is the best investment on
the face Of the earth today. There
could be no better.
Second: As every cent Of the money
raised by these Bonds Is spent in this
country, a woman helps to keep bust
ncss going, and that means her income.
Third: The buying Of Bond makes
every woman do her part In winning
the war, for war cannot be conducted
without money. The Government must
have money. and the amount she loans
to 1t helps to keep our boys In France
fed and clothed. A woman when she
hugs one of these Bonds is a real pa
triot of her country, as well as care
ful investor Of her money.
These bonds must sell, for II they
do not. the necessary money must be
raised by such heavy taxation as to
cripple every industry In the land, and
the poor would not be able to provide
shemselves with the bare necessities of
lsfe. Everything would go into taxa
sscn. Hence. come these Bonds as true
sssviors of the poor. 4
