"We'lI All Go Broke If We Have !
4 To-But There's No One
< Busted Yet"
~

VNTT~VTTTNVVN>N>N NVV>N>v>NrNNNT>|VN-
BY WILLIAM HERsCHELL.
When [ hear some folks complaint
Bout the burdens they must bear
Just to keep our soldiers fightin
In the trenches cover there"
Then I want to show a picture,
One saw tn other day,
OF little Belgian youn'un
An her granny, old an gray.
In each face was tears and terror,
Born of Teuton greed and lust,
An, l pledged my all to Freedom,
If to give my all | must.
Then a new song woke within me,
A refrain I can't forget;
We'll all go broke if we hat t.
But there's no one busted yet"
None of us is facin' hunger,
None need fear to seek his bed
Lest a demon in a GOtha
Hurl a bomb from overhead.
Here we go along a-singin'
Only now and then we sigh,
An we never see a soldier
'Cept our own a-marching by.
Folks, we'd ought to be SO grateful
To each fightin' Yankee boy
That tn sacrifice of givin'
Should be measured as a joy.
So let's do our part-full-hear
Smile and say without regret:
"We'll all go broke if we hat t.
But there's no one busted yet !"
Buy your Bonds-Load the guns:
Buying Early halts the Huns.
Buy Your Bond Early
Wherefore delay?
Head off Tomorrow
Sign up Today.
Buy Your Bonds now
And "save your face"
Delay and lodging
Mean disgrace.

FIGURES SHOW WHAT
YOUR DOLLARS WILL DO
What Liberty Bond Will Buy for My
Boy "Ove, There"

Suppose you have a son with the
suppose you are a steady buyer of Lib
erty Loan bonds Did you ever ask
yourself what Your boy gets out Of
1t, when you lay down a new 500 bill
and say: II want another hundred
collar Liberty Bond" Here are some
facts and figures officially made up by
the war department:
Your one hundred dollar Liberty
Bond will buy your boy one outfit of
clothing and sleeping gear, amounting
to $91.63. The change is 1887 and
that is just enough to give him his
"eats" for 1917 days.
This war is now in it's fifth year
has been running on about 1900 days.
The nineteen and a half days board
left for the boy out Of your hundred
dollar Liberty Bond wouldn't amount
to much if the fighting should go on
few years more! That $91.63 outfit
would be pretty we'll used up at the
end Of a few months Of campaign
ing.
Your hundred dollar war bond shows
the best possible disposition on your
part, but unless you buy more than
one somebody else has to put up
money to keep your boys hungry stom-
ach lined with bacon and fighting
food
That illustrates in a simple way the
urgent necessity for liberality in buy
ing Fourth Liberty Bonds. What
you gave the government on the
first, second and third loans has been
used up long ago. Your boy is cover
there" risking his life and all that
he has every minute Of the day. Sure
ly it is cup to you" to do absolutely
all you can to keep that boy fed and
clothed and cared for.
But one. point was overlooked in fig
uring the proceeds of the hundred dol
lar war bond. It bought the boy an
outfit of clothes and 10 days board,
but it didn't buy him gun nor a
trench knife-nOt even revolver, or
a hand grenade. Worse than all that,
the hundred dollars didn't cover knife,
fork or spoon; nor did it give the boy
pick and shovel for intrench1ng
when the Boche f1se gets too hot.
Somebody else had to buy another
bond to supply those things and give
your boy the ammunition he needs for
offense and defense.
When your boy goes over the top
there must be a nice barrage laid
down to protect him. Each 75-mill1-
meter shell that is fired costs $13.
Each 6-inch shell costs $40. The r.
inch high explosive shell loaded costs
about 1910. The 16-inch shell loaded
with INT costs about $1,000, and
the smokeless powder to fire it costs
S325 more The gun it is fired
from sets the government back $175,-
COO That is not all the wear and
tear on big caliber guns is terrible, so
that the life Of the tube is very brief
All these things point clearly to the
mistake people make when they say:
Ou, nave DOuSIlL SCNCLdI wal JULIUS.
I think I have done my share"
That is miles from the truth. You
have not done your share as long as
there is dollar of your capital or in
come that you don't absolutely have to
have to keep life in your body. All
tie rest ought to be spent for Fourth
Liberty Bonds. ~
