In encouraging the people OF
America to save 1t is believed that
the Liberty Loan Bonds are going
to preform an important function
in our national life. The small de-
nomination Of some Of the bonds
renders It practical for the 0rdin-
ary wage Garner to purchase one
with the savings Of few months.
and the banks OF the country have
undertaken to provide for the pur-
chase Of these bonds in small week
" or monthly payments.
BY devoting each week or each
month to the purchase Of Liberty
Loan Bonds such little sums OF
ready money as are often rittered
away for useless things one can not
only acquire property that ranks
among >the very best securities in,
the history Of the world, but can at
the same time feel that patriotic
duty has been performed and .
habit Of saving acquired.
OF course the ultimate results Of
this war WIN be 4 victory for Ameri-
ca, but what the effects Of the war
will be upon America and Ameri-
can people ID unknown. When
such m unknown future confronts
us prudence demands that contin-
gencies be provided for. An uncer-
tain future is q time to be provided
for. No one knows how great q
help savings invested in q Liberty
Loan Bond may be . few years
hence.
And your savings not only will be
absolutely secure but win be con-
stantly bringing In, interest an in

There are other possibilities-they
might better be called probabilities
and one is that the Liberty Loan
Bonds when peace comes and mon
ey now in active industrial use will
be seeking quiet investment. may
bring q handsome premium.
