WHY MOTT

Why shouldn't the Victory Liberty
Loan, the Loan of Thanksgiving, be
subscribed and over-subscribed, just
like its predecessors?
Have we less Patriotism than we
had in 1917? The response to theFifth
will answer.
Have we less money? Our bank
resources and our savings bank state
ments show that we have millions
more
Have we less incentive? Our gov
ernment's request was the only spur
we needed then. 1t is as urgent now.
We loaned for war then. Now we are
asked to loan to pay for lives saved,
for danger ayerted, for peace and
prosperity.
Have we less prosperous prospects?
Then we faced a protracted war and
many loans. Now we have only the
Victorious Fifth-the last.
The cost OF living Is bound to go
down, but our government, keeping its
promise, has guaranteed the high
price OF our greatest staple-wheat.
DO you realize that because OF the
war and the governments guarantee,
our 1919 wheat crop alone will bring
into this district about $500, 900 ,O00, 900
more than IL would bring normally?
We won't be asked 10 loan much more
than two-thlrds of this excess profit
Surely, there are knockers and hon
est pessimists and disloyal propagand-
lists and "rve done my share" egotists
and a lot OF other tough customers
There are some of them even in this
community.
II there weren't any, il would be too
easy and all you boosting, building NJ
optimists wouldn't be on the job
There wouldn't be any fun in IL II II
were easy. It's up to us TO apply the
acid test OF peace-time patriotism
Those who don't stand II should be
branded and remembered.
Never mind the grouches, the fault
finders, the slackers. You haven't
time to worry about them. Just sell
the good fellows in the community
Get them going strong. Start them
radiatlng optimism and patriotism
Most everyone will become enthused
and the job will be done with Joy and
credit 10 all
And to those who should but won
Just send around one OF the lads who
risked his life for us "over there" tC
ask the hesitating one: why not?'
Maybe one of the mothers who gave
her son to her country might ask
"why not?"

When May Yohe met Captain Smuts
In London the woman who earned fortunes
