A war cannot be conducted without
money. Less than 100000 people
subscribed to the first two Liberty

SNAPPY THOUGHTS
From Liberty Loan Speeches

Gentlemen, l never made a
speech in my life and 'aint goin'
to now, all say is-we're in it
let's win it"
Don't say you got no money.
If you 'aint got none, go borrow
some"
1--WE are going to try William
Hohenzollern for murder in
this Church next Wednesday.
You are summoned on the jury
and there will be a heavy pen
atty if you do not attend"
"A Chinaman went to one of
our banks last week and said,
Me buy Libby Bonl.' What
you want to buy one for, John,
said the Cashier, just to make
conversation. Why no buy 2
said John"
There is only one reason
why every man in America
should buy Liberty Bonds
should go in rags to do it
should starve himself, if neces.
sary to do it. And that
is because it is the right
thing to do. What is the
difference whether Liberty
Bonds pay four and one-quartel
per cent. interest or no interest
at all? 1t is the duty of every
American to buy them.
Defeat would mean ruin t.
the farmer; it would mean tax
alton to a point which woult
mean slavery to German mas
| ters."
