FIGHTING LOAN

As the campaign for the Fourth
Liberty Loan approaches the Ameri-
can Army in France moves on to-
ward Berlin. Under our own leaders
the great American Army has won a
notable victory.
The Fourth Loan must be a great
success. The Fourth Liberty Loan is
fighting loan.
When our soldiers on the battle
front are Drawing death. each one
Offering to make the supreme sac
rifice for his country and the great
cause, we who remain safely at home
surely should give them every sup
port, should make every sacrifice to
strengthen them. II we can not fight
ourselves we can make our dollars
fight.
II is a great cause for which Ameri-
ca is engaged in this war; it is a
great struggle in which the very hope
of the world is bound up that Is be-
ing waged in Europe and on the
high seas. II il an honor to have a
part in it and all Americans, all OF
their lives, will be proud Of the part
they had in it or ashamed Of their
failure to do their part.
The Fourth Loan Is the fighting
loan. Every subscriber to the Loan
strikes q blow for Liberty, for Vic
tory.

The other is clean, bright car. One that
looks the part of the investment you
have made. Appearance is a close second

Your car can be made to look the
part. You can give it the gloss and glitter
it had when you were so proud of it.
