More Buyers This Time.

The fourth call for the Double Duty
Dollars" of patriotic Americans came
Sept. %. Until Oct. II the call will
sound. In the Third Liberty Loan
10 ,U00, 600 Americans who were willing
to back their patriotism with their
cash responded to that call. This time
it is hoped that far more buyers will
participate. 1t has been suggested that
at least 30,000,G10 Americans should
subscribe. That will mean that prac-
tiCaily every man and woman in the
United States who is in a position TO
buy even one $50 bond, on the Install
ment plan or otherwise, must sub
scribe.
Advocates Of savings accounts point
cut that the man OF woman who puts
money in a Liberty Bond is creating g

savings account idea is good and the
investment idea is valuable, it should
not be forgotten that the biggest duty
OF the Double Duty Dollar" just now
is to get into the war ana help TO keep
the Hun on the run
With the flood of American "-Vin

Denmark, and the wives of. the Lutheran
clergymen have a deserved and tradi-
