of war there must be countiehs people pooling their small in6l@ vidual efforts SO that the performs ance can be creditable. The ac< tors in the theater of war fecely4 and merit public acclaim but thcv are the first to recognize their de- pendence on the men and women who never appear on the stage.
 The war has given more wome, than usual the right to act. It has done nothing to deprive any of them of the age-old privilege of exerting control behind the scenes
 That's what buying bonds means Bond holders are the off-stage sup. porters of the cast. And what cast 1t isl Men and boys whose dramatic exploits are making his- tory.
 The figure of the theater is in adequate. The cast which dependi on us is DO mske-believe set oi actors. These are real life heroes giving all they have to the defense of freedom. They depend on us Women have the right and honol of sharing in their support.
 Bond-holders are upholders cj all that makes the nation great May we exert the right to tuy bonds and save for freedom.
