TO Germany's Ubiquitous disregard of

How Nucla Does Your
Country Mean to You?

Put the question straight up to
Yourself in these hours when your
country is fighting to make the world
safe for democracy-safe for your
country, your home and you.
You answer in your subscription
to the Second Liberty Loan. BY the
ready warmth Of your response, you
measure the depth of your love for
your country, and your gratitude for
the comforts and advantages its de-
mocracy gives you.
Picture what your life would be
in a country bereft Of freedom; pic
ture what you might be, had 1t not
been for the opportunities Jul land
of liberty gave you; picture the future
of your child in the grip Of the iron
fist; put the question to your mind and
sum up what your country means TO
YOU in sentiment and self-interest; for
all that strikes at your country strikes
at you and your home.
Then proclaim your answer in the
buying Of all the Liberty Bonds you
can.
Buy until the buying pinches. The
world offers no better investment.
Your dollars will be fighting for your
country, and storing up an income for
your home.
Go at once to your bank and buy.
