ASSURING FUTURE
Of DISABLED BOYS
BY VICTORY LOAN
CLEANING UP HUMAN WASTAGE:
OF WAR is FINEST REcLAMA-
TioN WORK UNDERTAKEN.
REPUBLIC IS GRATEFUL
Schools and Workshops Are Being
Founded In Various Parts Of
Our Country.

AS Johnny comes marching home
igain from the wars he finds CRATE
,ul nation that is preparing to look
lfter his future in every possible and
reasonable way. Some have said that
Republics are ungrateful," but Amer
ca has never been ungrateful to the
men who have fought her battles. Nor
will she be this time.
Detailed plans have been made to
-ehabilitate the wounded man, the man
who, following other wars, has become
4 charge upon the government or q
oeggar on the streets. This time, fol-
owing this war, these men are to be
given chance for an education, or
re-education, so that they may live
rs they have fought, as self-respecting
American citizens.
Schools and workshops are being
founded In various parts of the coun-
Try Most of these institutions are
already busy and have been for
months. They started on their work
almost as soon as the first ship load
Of wounded came back from the front.
Blind men are being taught various
lrades. Men who have lost limbs are
being educated to take their old jobs
handle as well as sound and whole
worker.
That is another and a very vital
reason for the fifth Liberty Loan.
These men fought good fight They
were injured in the service of the
nation. No one held back when we
were r.,.z.--g iaon.y Tor l2hting loan,
Tor the funds that were to ES used IL
beating the Hun. Now the govern.
ment needs money to clear up and
smooth away the wreckage and the
wastage of the war. Also for reclama-
ton work. Rehabilitating the wounded
man Is reclamation work Of the very
finest sort. It is reclaiming men who
might otherwise be war waste.
There will be men with but one leg
driving tractors on the corn belt farms
this summer. They have been taught
In the governments vocational schools
for the wounded. Other men have
been placed at the work benches,
where they feared they might never
be able to sit again. The funds o.
the nation paid for this. Hundreds of
men have been given courses in book
Keeping, typewriting and commercial
and clerical work and are able to take
care of themselves in the future.
All this will lessen the pension rolls
Of the future. 1t will make your taxes
lighter in the days to come. 1t will
make 1t possible for your children and
your children's children to get on In
life without part of the great burden
Of war.
The government very properly is
charging up the cost OF these schools
and the pay Of the men while they are
in these schools to the general cost
Of the war. 1t wants to pay off the
burden as nearly as possible now. To
do this taxation and bond issues are
being levied and fioated. The Victory
Liberty Loan is to be used in this
and other undertakings for placing the
country in position to get on with
Its future.
Subscriptions to this loan will help
make smooth the road OF the future.
1t will enable the government to go
forward with the task Of making the
soldier into civilians with the least
possible trouble. In this way. it is Just
as important as any Of the loans that
have gone before. 1t is the loan that
helps to ciinch Belgium.
