who can will not have to be begged to
do their part in buying Liberty Bonds.
The cycle of money invested in Lib

people lend the money to the Govern
ment, the Government lends some to
our Allies, and our Government and
our Allies straightway spend the
money, or the greater portion of it,
among the people of the United States
In some instances the money paid in
by wage earners on one installment Of
Liberty Bonds is paid by the Govern
ment to their employers, and by their
employers paid back to them in the
way of wages before the next Bond
installment is due.
The sooner the irresistible might of
this great Republic is organized and
put into full action the sooner the
war will end. Every dollar invested

shorten the war, to save the lives of
American soldiers and sailors.
The ladies will not begin their can
vassing for Liberty Bonds until next
week. Come out Friday night and by
so doing show that you are patriotic
