HOW THE PURCHASE OF A LIBERTY
BOND DEFENDS YOU AND YOURS

Supposing the enemy had landed on
the coast, and in battle array were
coming up the street toward your
home. Suppose American troops
were opposing their progress. Sup
pose that, before your very door.
stood one soldier, fighting to defend
your home and your family:
Would you not be willing to give
$50 or S1O0 to provide him with re-
serves of arms and ammunition, with
food, with everything he needed to
keep his place there?
Would you hesitate to give this sum
even il it's repayment was not guar
anteed by the richest man in the
world, who would also give you 4A q
interest for its use?
You know that you would give $50.
or $1OO, or any other sum you could
scrape together, to support the man
who was defending you. and that you
would give it without any considera-
ton of interest or repayment.
Put the ocean between your home
and the enemy and the situation you
face today is the same. The soldiers
of your army are standing between
you and yours and a ruthless enemy:
Upon their strength and courage and
upon their equipment, depends the
safety Of your home and all that there
is in It, and behind you stands Uncle
Sam, the richest man in the world,
who will not only return your money
when you need 1t, but Will pay you
4A% a year for its use.
When you buy fifty-dollar Liberty
money to supply reserves OF food ano
ammunition to the soldier VINO is nght'
ing for YOU. Whatever you spend is
spent for the same purpose, TO oach
the army that is fighting your battles
with the supplies that it must have TO
win the war. More than that, py the
money you spend you show them tha'
Won are behind them, heart and soul
and YOU encourage and inspire them
In the heroic task they have under
taken.
Money Is vitally necessary to the
success of an army in the field. Inls
country can win this war, and secure
by so doing, a lasting peace, because
II has not onl. men, but money, and
a Nmitless abundance of the latter.
But that money must be transmitted
into munitions and supplies before ii
can be made to count in the war.
And, above all, there must be
enough of it--more than enough-all
that the government needs for i'm
mediate requirements, and vast re-
serve to meet future needs.
One $50 Liberty bond will BUY:
Enough ether or chloroform to
ease the pain of $50 or more wounded
soldiers during operations on the
field or at base hospitals.
Twenty-Five treatments of antitet'
anic serum, so that the wounds made
by the shrapnel or bullets of the en-
envy shall not cause death by lock
jaw, which proved one Of the great
est horrors of war in other days.
Three modern rifles, enough to last
a man many days under active fire.
Fifteen hundred rounds of ammuni-
ton, with which any American sol
dier can do offensive execution, pre-.
serving his life and saving the lives
of the wounded in the rear
Enough food to keep a soldier $50
days.
Enough smallpox vaccine to make
500 soldiers immune from one Of the
