Save Your Country
By Saving Your Money

You have always been told that you should save
money and the chief reason urged was that you
would have the money later on, with interest as a
step to financial independence. Certainly that has
been most excellent reason but there is better one
now. We have pledged the honor of our country to
fight this war to our last dollar
You are not asked to spend money when you
are asked to buy War Savings Stamps You are ask
