empt from all taxes, except inheri-
lance and estate taxes, so that they
yield an absolutely net income of 3H
per cent.
If before the end of the war, gov
eminent bonds bearing higher interest
should be issued, you can exchange
your Liberty Bonds for them.
IN MULTIPLEs OF $50.
These bonds have been purposely
made in multiples of $50 so that every
one might have this opportunity to be-
come Government Bond Holder.
Liberty Loan Bonds mature in 30
years and are redeemable in IS years.
Bonds in multiples of 500 may be reg
istered, so that the income comes to
you automatically.
The last great Government Bond is
sue sold for par in 1898 and for 11OM
in 1900
FOR EVERY PERSON IN EVERY
FAMILY.
A Liberty Loan Bond is the ideal
investment for every member of the
family.
For those in the family who are just
starting to get ahead, Liberty Loan
Bonds afford protected investment
where their savings are profitable and
secure.
Why not buy Liberty Bonds for the
baby now and provide for his college
education?
Liberty Bonds are the best basis
for credit in the world. When you
find yourself short of cash or when
collections are slow and you need
cash to get your discounts, just pre-
sent your Liberty Bonds to your bank
er and he will take them as security
for loan. He'll hold the bonds until
you are ready to repay your note
when he'll return them to you-and all
the while they will be paying you in
terest.
Believing that it is the wish of this
country to have this opportunity to in
vest and receive interest for the fnan-
cial support they give in this war, rath-
er than to cary the entire amount by
taxation, your government is offering
you this chance today This is solid
business proposition-a chance to in
vest in the best securities in the world
while at the same time performing as
patriotic an act as you can do. Should
this issue not be completely subscribed
the burden of taxation will probably
have to be assumed.
Be government bond holder in the
greatest war Of liberation the world
has ever known. Make your subscrip-
ton at any bank, bond house.. trust
company, department store or post Of
fee todav

America is Calling
for Financial
Volunteers

THAT AMERICA may
strike the winning
IL blows for the freedom
and democracy of the world,
your government calls today
for financial volunteers.
You who wish to see the War
ended quickly you who desire
the prosperity and safety of Amer
ican business you Uncle Sam
offers today the opportunity to
make the best financial and patri-
otic investment of your life.
To you Secretary of the Treasury
McAdoo says: "I'he greatest imme-
date service the American people can
render in this War for universal lib
!erty throughout the world is to fur
nish the means for its vigorous prose-
cution This bond issue is the first
step: l earnestly bespeak the coop
Grafton of every citizen throughout the
length and breadth of the land in this
great service of patriotism"
In asking you to subscribe to the
Liberty Loan your Government is not
asking you to spend your money In
stead it holds out to you splendid
opportunity to save and invest.
When you invest in Liberty
Bond" you get signed promise
backed by the total resources of the
richest nation in the world-a wealth
of $25O000,O00,O00
HOW THE FINANCIAL VOLUN-
TEER AIDS HIS COUNTRY.
The Liberty Loan is to be used to
extend credit to our Allies, so that they
may purchase our products and ma
terials. Not dollar of this loan will
leave this country or pay for other
than American products. The fnan-
cial volunteer is enabling his country
to extend this credit, and to market
more American goods.
The extension of this credit by our
government is going to quicken the
pulse of American business for years
to come. 1t makes us the biggest
creditor of our Allies and binds them
more firmly than could any treaties
1t broadens the market for our goods,
increases the demand for what we have
to sell and speeds up production.

Denver labor bulletin., 1917-03-17
Cigarnakers
ORy j. W. Sanford.l

Low wage institutions are no ad-
vantage to any community and we are
pleased to say that so far as the city
of Denver is concerned the non-union
cigar factories are not making much
headway, for very few of their cigars
are to be found. This is to the credit
of our union people. Label goods are
to be had at all first class cigar stands
including the grocery stores.
union factory in the city is laying off
this week for the want of stock to
work with. 1t might be for the want
of customers for all we know.
William W. Orr has returned to
Denver after couple of years abb
sence to enjoy some of the prosperity
in the cigar line. He is employed by
the Mount Morris Cigar company who
are rushed with their special box
trade.
Charles F. Hamm is down from Cas-
per. Wyo., to get himself a new leg,
the original of which he says he lost
by being run over by steam boat a
number of years ago when hobolng on
the Mississippi. Ham" is engaged IN
general mercantile and real estate
business in Casper and says he is
making more money than he knows
what to do with.
Out of over fifty cigar dealers Wis.
tied in the last two weeks only one of
the lot failed to show fair number
of label goods. , e.
United States Tobacco Journal for
March reports the loss of Ia 900 bales
of Sumatra tobacco by the sinking OF
a vessel on the way to this country
recently. Each bale contains about
IT'S pounds and will affect the market
to a considerable extent. Very many
losses like this would make it neces-
sary to look for a substitute for wrap
pers for cigars.
