the Third Liberty Loan. Half that
sum will be subscribed in one day.
June 2Sth. A nation will take off its
coat Friday morning, June 28th, and
do nothing else for a whole day but
buy and sell and give pledges to buy
War Savings Stamps. In many towns
two or three days before the 2Sth will
be devoted to getting pledges. 1t will
be time of conservation TO a great
principle as well as of rolling up funds
for the use of our government in pros
ecuting the war.
1t has taken US over year to re-
alize that it is a mans Job over
There" And we now know that it is
a mans job over here. Don't cry out
against the multiplication of sub
scriptions and contributions and pro
hibitions. Did you ever stop to think
that the boys "Over There" can't stop
after they fight one battle and take
their own time to fight the next one
It's life and blood and wounds "Over
There" it's sordid dollars and cents
over here. Take your choice. It's
taxes one month, Red Cross the next,
Liberty Bonds the next, Y M. C. A.
funds the next and X. c. subscriptions
the next. That's all right "Over
There" it is gas today, shrapnel to-
morrow, machine gun fire day after
tomorrow and He'll every night. And
our boys do not get Az per cent inter
est on their investment of life and
limb. Wouldn't you like them TO know
that Vermont did not hesitate to in
vest money while they invested their
lives?
Look upon the War Savings Stamps
as mans job just as you looked upon
the Third Liberty Bond. Buy them
today and make June 18th easier for
those who are working to get pledges
for the balance Of Vermont's quota Of
1896, 10000.

II YOU have a suit, wear that with a
pretty waist II YOU prefer a dress and

Really YOU have no reason 10 worry
