The week of May 81 to June 2 has
been designated by the Vermont Head
quarters of the American Red Cross az
Red Cross Week. A general cam
paign will be carried on throughout
the state TO stir enthusiasm and enlist
new members in the Society. In
many places mass meetings will be
held and speakers sent out from State
Headquarters will address the meet

Gently been held in Manchester, it has
been thought inadvisable to hold an
other during the week. 1t is hoped
however, that many who have not al
ready enrolled will join the local
branch. State Headquarters have
designated 200 members as the quota
Manchester should have as the very
minimum number. II is earnestly
desired that Manchester shall great
" exceed that number Of members.

Extensively!
II is not necessary 20 advertise
these bonds TO sell the whole issue,
but i; is earnestly desired that this
loan shall be a popular loan, a loan by
the people at large of the United
States, and not alone from banks,
trust companies, and fnancicrs. Ic
tina, end bonds are to be issued Of
small denominations, and subscriber
for small amounts are TO be supplied
before the subscribers for large
amounts are granted their full sub.
scripuon.
Is II Patriotic to Purchase These
Bonds!
Yes; every American who sub
scribes to the justice of the course
of the United States in entering and
conducting the war we are now engag-
ed in should subscribe TO the Liberty
Loan Bond issue to the extent Of his
or her hnanclal apliity.
Every American who subscribcs TO
the belief than an American should
stand by his or her country should
subscribe TO the Liberty Loan Bond
issue.
Every American who loves America
and is Jealous of Americas honor
should subscribe to the Liberty Loan
Bond issue. The real success OF the
loan is TO be more determined by the
number of Americans participating IN
it rather than by the amount sub
scribed. The spirit Of the Nation is
going to be judged abroad, especially
by our enemies, more by the number
Of its American men and women who
support this bond issue than by the
mere amount of money subscribed.

Why Liberty Loan
