 WRONG WAY: Say nothing to the child about the visit before hand.

W0MEN'S GROUPS PLAN
SUPPORT FOR WAR LOAN

WASHINGTON, d. C Three
national women's organizations
have pledged themselves to sell a
total of more than $4,000, 900 in
bonds in connection with the Sixth
War Loan Campaign.
Gamma Phi Beta college sorority
has accepted goal of S1,000,00
and the Women's Auxiliary of the
National Federation of Post Office
Clerks has a goal of $1,125, 900.
Both drives were launched Oct. 10.
Alpha Iota, national business
and secretarial sorority, expects
to secure purchases of 5000. Their
drive started November l and will
continue to January l.

million voluntary workers will
canvass the nation to make the
drive a success. 1t is hoped that
Ohio farmers will again lend their
full support to this vital war ac-
tivity.
Safest Investment
For the economy minded, War
Bonds present one of the safest
and most attractive investment
opportunities in America today.
For the patriotic, they afford a
tangible opportunity to participate
first hand-in the financing of
our great American war effort.
While billions have been loaned
by our great industrial and bank
ing firms, the additional billions
loaned by the average citizens
throughout the country have
helped knit us into an effective
national team. Not only are War
Bonds excellent economic and pa
triotic investments, but they are
greatest insurance
against the evils of initiation which
plague a nation with little to buy
and much to buy it with.
Years ago, Americans sacrificed
to win their liberty. In the Civil
War they sacrificed to bring free
dom to men and unity to the
nation.
Today, Americans sacrifice to
bring freedom and unity to
world. No challenge to America
has ever been greater.
Goal 20 Million
During this War Bond Drive,
the Ohio farm community win be
on a countrywide basis.
The Ohio Farm Bureau, the
Grange, and Extension Service are
all cooperating with the War FL
nance Committee for Ohio in eff
fort to put the Sixth War Loan
over the top. Ohio's farm goal is
20 million dollars. Ohio farmers
should easily reach such goal.
And speaking for the thousands
Of Ohio Farm Bureau families
the state. | can say
reservation that we will
DO everything in our power to
make this Sixth War Loan Drive
an oyer-the-top campaign.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1944-11-23

In the Sixth War Bond Drive
quota of 20 million dollars has been
set for the farmers of Ohio. Now
20 million dollars is a lot of
money until we examine what such
an investment means. Because,
first of all, this 20 millions is not
taxes. it is not a free contribution;
it is an investment in the greatest
and richest corporation on earth in
which every farmer and every citi-
zen is a stakeholder. Those of us
who are farmers aren't giving this
money away; we are buying a
share in that vast enterprise called
the United States of America.
But buying War Bond is much
than buying share of stock or
municipal bond. 1t is buying an
earlier end to this abominable war.
1t is buying better protection for
the sons, fathers, brothers, uncles
and cousins who are away from
home, scattered over the whole Of
the world, fighting in order that
this great corporation which be-
longs to all of us may be safe
from the kind of attack that
brought misery and destruction to
nations like Norway and France
and England and Holland and Rus
sia.
Buying Security Protection
In buying a bond you are buying
security and protection, both eco
nomic and material, for your home,
your farm, your livestock. In the
next war (if there should be one),
with modern planes and parachute
troops and robot bombs, distance
will have been largely eliminated
anu there is no reason to believe
hat our great Industrial cities, our
towns and even our farms may
not be subject to bombing and to

FARMERS AWARE
OF WAR NEEDS
BY MURRAY ID. LINCOLN
Secretary, Ohio Farm Bureau

At this moment more than ten
million American citizens - the
cream of our nations youth-are
engaged in the grim activity of
war.
They are carrying guns, flying
planes, manning the ships and dig
ging the foxholes in this second
and greatest of World Wars. What
they are giving to this nation and
the world cannot be easily phrased.
They are giving the most vital
years of their lives. They are
giving their strength, their skill
and their courage.
And they are giving life itself
in order that the forces Of tyranny
and evil might be destroyed
throughout the world. The finest
fruits Of victory and peace will
only partly reflect the sacrifices
of these ten million Americans

attack of every sort.
Buying a Bond is the best in
surance against another war.
War Bonds are the best insur-
ance for the return home of the
men now fighting in India, the Pa
eifie and in Europe. The more
equipment they have, the better
the equipment, the sooner can they
finish the job and come home, the
sooner all of US can get back to a
decert life of peace.
For New, Better Equipment
And there is no better way of
putting aside moneyAto spend later
ON when the barn will need paint.
when there is need for new trac-
tor or corn-planter or a couple of
dairy cows of the materials to
build a new poultry house or to
install electricity or plumbing. A
lot of these things aren't available
now, but they wi. be in the future,
in quantity and at prices much
lower than those prevailing now.
Many of these things will be bet
ter designed and more efficient
and practical. Buying bonds is
preferable to spending money now
on equipment which is already out
dated.
II you buy War Bonds you still
have your money. 1t is earning
interest. 1t will still be there after
the war and meanwhile it is work
ing Cor the whole good of the ma
tion and for the individual good of
those of us at home on the farms.
in the villages and small towns.
But most of all it will be working
for the boys overseas.
Money Exists 10 Work
The war is tho concern of ALL
of Us. 1t is being fought for the
good of ALL Of us. 1t is fought
because it had 10 be fought, be-
cause we had no choice if we were
to go on living as we lived in the
past.
Buying War Bonds is a way to
help and protect our boys over
seas. 1t is the best way to save
and invest money and put aside
the reserves which will be so valu-
able when things open up again.
Dead money, lying in bank or
under the mattress, never did any
one any good. Money exists to
work, to produce, to build up Sc
eurits and prosperity. If everyone
In this great country buried his
money, economic death would soon
strangle the whole nation. There
would be no victory and no future.
Buy War Bonds now!

whose courage and unselfishness
made such victory possible.
Soldiers Still Out There
This is half of the story. The
other hSk is told by some hundred
nj ] 70 n home front Americans
whose energies, skills and sacri-
fees have kept those ten million
fighting men supplied. These
Americans farmers-worker
bankers = industrialists - have
worked together to meet this
crisis.
But home-front Americans have
done more than supply the goods
for fighting armies. They have
faced squarely the fact that war
costs money. And they have gen
erously and enthusiastically in
vested their dollars i'm War Bonds
TO help carry the war effort for
ward.
While repeated victories for the
Allies give as all hope that the
wars end may be soon, the sober
fact remains that Germany and
Japan are still undefeated. Our
soldiers are still out there. Tons
of supplies and equipment are still
leaving our ports for the fighting
fronts.
Civilian Americas Duty
Sober and thoughtful Americans
all realize that their duty-like
that of the soldier-lies in seeing
this war through a final victory.
The soldier will. if necessary. give
his life to the fulfillment of his
obligation and duty. Civilian
America ean-and will-fulfin its
duty to that soldier.
