The, Victory Loan is upon us.
The Government of the United
States is Our Government. Men have
fought, suffered and died for il. You
are not blinded or crippled--the least
you can do is to come forward with
your money.
We are not asked to Give. but to
Lend. OF whom can our Nation bet
ter ask a loan than of US. its citi-
zens. who enjoy its benefits?
The campaign will be successful. The
American people are not cutters. We
will see this thing thru.
We are asked for s4.500. .0O0. 900. a
large sum. but not too large for this
country. II is smaller than most of
us expected.
The rate Of interest is four and
three-quarters per cent. with partial
tax exemption. and three and three
quarters per cent with total exemption.
This is a higher rate than the Gov
ernment has ever paid on its bonds. and
in all probability higher rate than
will ever be offered again in your
lifetime.
