EASY TO
DO DUTY
TO u. S.
BY a Times Reporter

by d 1 lAloS 8opOI JOE
When a man has reached my
age and has q family to support,
doing his patriotic duty IL ridicu-
lousy easy.
They won't let me fight.
/ am doing the two things re-
quired of me: working a war gar
bender and buying a Liberty bond.
Consider!
Working in my war garden Is
pleasant and healthful exercise. 1t
is also fun. The wife and watch
for the first onion with pretty
nearly as much excited enthusiasm
as when we watched for the first
tooth when the boy was in swad-
ding clothes.
Gets 81 Per Cent.
And by and by we will eat our
garden truck. We will be in a
position to defy the Calabrian
brigand who robs us when he sells
US vegetables. We will save
money.
And the Liberty bond!
ct is" says the advertisements,
|"your patriotic duty to buy Lib
lerty bond"
We deposit our money in saw
ings banks. They are, / suppose,
sound banks, but don't know for
certain. We get 8 per cent.
Yesterday | made application at
a Tacoma bank for a $500
Liberty bond-of the kind known
as bearer" bond. 1t has inter
est coupons attached. You simply
tear off coupon, when the time
comes. and cash it at your bank.
l filled out a blank-the man at
the counter showed me how-gave
him s1O-the 2 per cent initial
payment-and he gave me re-
ceipt.
We will get 31s per cent on our
$500, instead of per cent.
Better Than Gold.
Our $500, at per cent, has
been earning SIS year. AS a
Liberty bond it will earn $3.50 a
year.
And, If our $500 was safe in the
banks, it will be more than safe
as a Liberty bond. The whole
United States is behind our bond.
1t is safe than a greenback. 1t
Is as safe IS gold. can buy gro
ceries and meat with it if / like.
But it is better than gold be-
cause it gives me an income which
gold would not. And it Is exempt
from taxation, too.
We shall not spend the income,
however. We are giving the bond
to the boy. When he is 81, he
will have a stake.
I am finding that my patriotic
duty walks hand-in-hand with my
selfish desire.
