 What shall be said to persuade the man who has not yet bought War Savings Stamps to go out now and buy them.
 Docs he want security?
 Take a map of the United States; every city from New York to San Francisco on the Pacific 5000 miles away, and from New Orleans to Min neapolis Is the property of the United States Everything that is in this territory land, houses, animals, stocks bonds, factories and every imaginable industry is pledged to make good these War Savings Stamps. The great cities of the east, the rich fertile centers of the west, the over wealthy cities of the Pacific, are all placed at your disposal as security.
 Ut takes little imagination to real ize the practical value of a bond of the U. s., with security value back Of it. but it takes a little more imagina- tion for us dwelling here in peace and safety to realize why these bonds should be bought, apart from the fact that they are the safest invest ment for money in the world.
 eff there is one thing easy to do it's finding reasons for investing in Thrift and War Savings Stamps.
 ITO begin with there are more than 100000 reasons in khaki lover there''.
 ~F reasons in training at cantonments in the U. $. A.
 '"There are hundreds of thousands of reasons in blue and white on bat tleships, destroyers and other war craft sweeping ocean lanes clear of U-boats.
 "There are thousands of reasons flying through the air. They are the aces which will play the deuce with Hun aerial forces.
 '"There are as many reasons as there are stars on service flags in the millions of American homes.
 "But we should remember that money is power. The gold dollar Of softest yellow metal can be changed to the hardest steel that pierces ar- nor plates of enemy battleships or machine guns that mow down the advancing foe. Do you hear that bomb bursting in a German trench Do you see fragments of bodies fly ing in the air? Do you see that ma- chine in the air, flying over the Ger man trenches? And do you hear the rattle of the machine gun fighting off an enemy f1ier? Do you see the watcher sending by wireless the mes sages, correcting marksmanships to our gunners below.
 That machine is flying with YOUR money. That quick firing gun, han dled by a young hier sends bullets that were once your dollars. Your dollars are the fighting material and who would not gladly put his money to work fighting for his country? Men are giving up their lives by the thousands so that the world may be saved from the clutches of the Hun.
 "They receive no interest, no princi- pal for their lives, but they give their lives because it Is their duty
 '"Therefore, buy War Savings Stamps on this the 2Sth day of June, honor your country and yourself, de- serve the continued freedom that you now enjoy and help to preserve the democratic institutions of this great U. s.
