GOVERNOR FRANK o. LOWDEN GUEST
OF ROCK ISLAND TODAY TELLS PART
ILLINOIS IS PLAYING IN CONFLICT
GOVERNOR ON LOAN.

Here's what Governor Frank
o. Lowden says concerning
the third Liberty loan:
This is a war to establish the
right of people TO govern them
selves. 1t is. therefore, peo-
pies war. But people cannot
finance a war waged upon it by
military autocracy. Democ-
racy is doomed, unless it has
the vitality to put forth its re-
sources in support of a war, in
which its very right to exist is
challenged.
Our enemy frequently has
said that we. as a nation. care
for money alone. More than a
million of our young men have
given the lie to this charge by
Offering the supreme sacrifice
the sacrifice of life itself
that this country might endure
Shall it now be said of the
other millions the millions
who remain at home-that TINS
charge is true? Will not our
people at home. for whose Sc
curity and future our soldiers
have gone to the colors, will
not they loan their dollars to
the government in the support
of a cause for which these men
gladly offer to give their lives.
Remember. money is as
needful as men. if we are to
prevail. Remember, that if we
do prevail. these bonds will be
the best investment We shall
have made during the period
of the war. If we fail. even
then they will be worth more
than our cattle and lands, our
factories and stores, or any
other property we may own.
Our wage earners. business
men and capitalists are vitality
interested in the triumph of
our arms. Let all subscribe in
proportion to their means. The
number who shall partake Of
this loan is as important as the
total amount subscribed. IL
our people generally are unit
ed in absorbing our Liberty
bonds il will prove to the world
that democracy knows what its
liberties are worth. and is will
ing to defend them at any cost.
No true patriot will fail to
buy United States Liberty
bonds.

The only way to keep food from
spelling during hot weather is to
provide an ample circulation of
cold, dry air. Our refrigerators are
scientifically designed to conform
