YOUR PATRIOTISM
 TOLD IN DOLLARS

The size of Your Bond Purchase, means Considered, Tells the Tale.
 What is 1t worth to you?
 Does American Liberty mean any thing in your scheme of life? If 1t does, just try to put a money value on It.
 But. you say-and you say rightly -its value can not be measured in dollars and cents. It goes beyond money. It lays upon all the higher and bigger things in life. It repre- sents things that no amount of money can buy. It is
 But hold on minute. We know all that and still we ask you to put money value on American Liberty. How much does it mean to you?
 What would it mean, to put it other wise if there were danger of it's being driven from you-and if MONEY, a hie sum of money, were the only thing that could prevent. How much would you give for Liberty, the real American brand of it, under those cir cumstances!
 There is a reason for asking these ouestions-absurd as they may seem. And that reason lies in the conditions confronting us all today. Ii is humanly possible, since all things are possible, that the hordes ot the Huns may overrun Europe and the whole civilized world. If they do, the American type of Liberty will come near to vanishing from the earth. You will enjoy a much diluted l and sadly modified form of 1t, at best.
 If we are wise, we will acknowledge the danger and do our utmost to avert it. That can best be done by those of us who can not go to the front by loaning the United States Government all of our money that we can. It takes money-unthinkable sums of money more money than the world has ever had called for for any purpose hither- toto carry on the Big Business of Defense that is to make the world safe for Democracy and perpetuate the American ideal of Liberty not only in America but throughout the world.
 So get down to brass tacks,' and count up the value of American Lib brty in MONEY. Then buy your part bf the Third Liberty Loan and buy it gladly.
 You might even help some other fel- ow buy part of his.
 It's worth the price.
