LIBERTY LOAN BONDS

The fact that so many government war time
Liberty Loan bonds have been placed on the
market has brought the price of these secur-
ties to a low level.
1t is known that large per cent of the pro-
ceeds of these bond sales has been used in spec
ulative and non-essential investments
We believe that in the very near future the
market price of these bonds will advance
And we therefore would advise you to hold
