No Wonder They Oh the Babies.

My baby. II months old. is bottle

fresh raw milk still be his chief food

Ida AcGlone Gibson, field worker for

surplus wealth In liberty bonds and
war savings stamps and then think
they have done their full duty was
sternly criticized by Mrs. Gibson. She
asserted:
Neither the men nor the women
know what sacrifice really means.
They buy Liberty Bonds and War Saw

need and then go home to meal Of

Every time you buy anything
people work for you. Save labor

Money spent in war time on
things not needed is money given
to the enemy

Thrive by thrift.
Make thrift your buy-word.
Luxuries as usual means a vic

War Savings Stamps.
Thrift and patriotism are
synonymous.
Business as usual now may
mean no business later.
Many are giving their lives;
you are asked only to loan your
money.
Unusual business now means
resumption of business as usual

Give your luxuries that the
