BUY FIFTH LIBERTY BONDS
AND az SAFE.

About the saddest thing in the
world is to undergo self.denial for
years, to save money and then to see
the rainy day fund" wiped out by
the failure Of some wild cat" scheme.
This happens every day. widows
and Woodworking men are credulous.
They listen to the oily promises of
get rich quick" promoters and hand
over their savings to slick statesmen
with blue sky" securities promising
impossible profits.
And. when the bolt falls out OF the
! clear sky the pitiful savings of years
disappear in an instant. 1.-THE
Bonanza PATROL Co. has gone up. We
are ruined!" Then there is nothing
to do but begin life all overland at
time when earning capacity has be-
gun to ebb and the way is thornier
than ever before.
Whatever the temptation may have
been in the past to do this thing,
! there is no excuse for Il now. Hun
dreds OF thousands Of experienced
publicity and investment men have
been at work for nearly two years,
under the authority of the American
Government, educating millions of
people IL the fine art OF safe invest.
ing. 1t is undoubtedly the fact that
more people are saving money today
than ever before in all the history of
the world. And more OF the people

OF their savings accumulations. Lit
orally millions have been taught Il
buy Government bonds, and they hav,
learned to buy Thrift and War Saw
ings Stamps as the best possible wa.
to prevent the waste OF fugitive
quarters and dimes.
The Government will offer another
chance to get in on the grount
floor" during the spring when the
Fifth Liberty Loan is offered. The
money will be spent to pay the cost
OF maintaining and restoring to theil
homes the valiant soldiers who have
won for America the worlds great
est victory. The bills must be paid
and the American people must pay
them.
From the thrift and savings" view,
point the Fifth Liberty Loan will be
as good as, or even better than, the
previous Liberty Loans. It is likely
to have shorter maturity and that
will enable the holder to obtain a
generous income while he holds them
and get his principal back, with q
handsome appreciation during the
coming period of intense activity and
prosperity.
II anything goes up In value" Lib,
erty bonds surely will The way to
get the benefit Of such advances In
value Is to buy the coming Fifth Lib.
erty bonds
To buy them when they are offered
everybody should begin saving up
now.
Set aside all the money you can
spare out Of your wages and have It
In your savings bank for the initial
payment on Fifth Liberty Bonds.
