DON'T HIDE BEHIND

Hard on the heels of the Fourth Lib

organizations engaged in relief work
among our soldiers and sailors, for the
funds with which to carry o nthcir es-

amount asked is a huge one, $40, SOC, 600
more money than has ever been asked
IS gift Of the people Of any nation in

he Red Cross asked last spring.
Every good American wants to re

align to say that one is ''all tied up in

valid to hold back because of one :
'uHds are invested in Standard Oil or
Western Uui0n or any other dividend
aying investments. Because the meth
DDS necessarily employed to arouse the
public to the Importance of investing in
Liberty loans have accented the patri

rs if il buying bonds they had parted
Nth their money instead of actual :
strengthening their own financial posi-

Owns, the larger the sum he can afford
70 give to the United War Work Cam

states Treasury will pay in ')vember
1918, to the holders of bonds of the

mount to the sum required at this
