his debts is a Stacker OF the worst
kind. Buy bonds with all the cash you
have and mortgage your farm ana buy
more bonds. Put all in IL we lose
we lose all anyhow. Your farm is not
safe till victory is won. A soldier with
out q gun, q gun with nothing to shoot
and when we fail to back ,tp our
fighting men, We place them at the
mercy of the Hun. Men have seen
their boys go and now are thinking
more about getting out of debt than
seeing thcir boy come back victorious.
What? Can this be SO? 1t does seem
SO. You men that own your farms
and have bought $100 or 5000 in bonds,
20 buy $500 or 81 900 DO your duty
by our boys. We must go over the top.
by all means over the top" men.
Yours for over the top,
