"A Clear and Thrilling Picture

The wonderful LITERARY DIGEST LlBER-/ TY MAP shows at glance how far the Huns !, have advanced; how much territory they oc }cupy, the area of their latest drives; where our own American armies, shoulder to shoulder with our Allies, are fighting on the great BAT TILE LINE OF LIBERTY, and makes plain the mighty task which confronts America-the task of honor which our soldiers are fulfilling, glor- iousy over there-the task in which every one of us at home must bear patriots ps.rt. If Someone You Love Is in France
 this LIBERTY MAP will bring you into closer touch with him and help you to follow his career
 When letter comes from your boy, or your friend, telling of the battle, you will study the Liberty Map, and picture it all out, as he tells you where he has been in action. And the fami- ly will gather around that map, eagerly, to pick out the places.
 And When the Boys Come Home
 what an endless source of satisfaction it will be as the family gathers around it while the young veteran from France points out all the places which meant so much to him, and traces out the campaigns in which he fought. What exciting stories he will have to tell, and how this wonder 3ful LIBERTY MAP will help him to tell them, and you to understand and enjoy. them. The Liberty Map will be, treasured thing in your home to keep in place of honor and to hand down to the next generation.
