have been. Think of the sacrifice b6 made
 Can Jon in all decency, say that you 'can't afford" an extra War Bond now-when your country calls on you to do your all to help hasten the knockout blow?
 Weknow you won't fail America now. We know you'll come through-as you have in every other War Loan Drive-and INVEST IN AT LEAST ONR EXTRA HUNDRED DOLLAR BOND today That's the least you can do. You should do more, if you can. Invest $2oO, $500, $40o-as much as pos sible. Remember, hundred dollar Series War Bond costs only seventy-fve dollars. You get back $4OO at maturity for every $500 you put up.
 So .. let's do it the American way! Let's invest proudly of our own free will to put this 4th War Loan Drive over the top. Get that extra hundred dollar Bond today at your bank. Or tell your em- ployer to take it out of your salary. Help the com pany you work for to meet its quota
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-01-27

What about yos1 Are you letting the dollars slip through your fngers-dollars that should be put safely away in War Bonds?
 There are War Bonds to fit your needs i. Bonds which are backed up by the strongest company in the world. Build that home you have always dreamed about Send your child to college. Buy the wonderful things that coming after the war. YOU CAN DO IT WITH YOUR WAR BOND SAVINGS
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-01-27

All over the country men and women look to the future with confidence. They are the ones who have put part of their extra wartime earnings into the worlds safest investment-U. S. Government War Bonds.
 Yes, they are helping their country in its grimmest struggle. But they are helping themselves too! They are helping to secure their future, to weather any troubled days that may lie ahead.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-01-27
And You say you 'Cait Aff(
 an Extra War Bond ]?

HEY say that after while we become callous so death and suffering.
 They say that in wartime people cannot under stand the little heartaches and tragedies that touch individual lives. For when death and destruction occur on mass scale, what happened to this one American soldier may not mean so much to you.
 But to his parents and to girl back home, his death means the end of everything
 It means the end of Dis dreams of a happy home, family, future...
 That's war the damnab1e hell of war. Still, there's job to be done, and it IS being done by heroes like this boy. Heroes who fight and die that we, who still enjoy safety and plenty, may look to Victory with greater assurance today than ever before.
 Think of this boy for just moment, please. Think of him . .. of his family of what might
