Brigadier General Charles X. Zim
merman. now at Camp Sheridan,
Montgomery, Ala., sends this message
to the peopl of the Fourth Federal
Reserve district:
"Ohio soldiers want to get at the
Qerumns as soon aa possible and are
more than willing to pay part of the
cost to fight. That is why officer* and
men here are buying Liberty Bonds
with the same leal that they are put
ting into their training. Another rea
son why they are sub scribing to the
Liberty Loan Is because the same lib
eral Uncle Sam who feeds and clothes
them here in camp stands back of
every bond.
"It is the s«fe*t inve*tment in the
World and the Liberty Bond Is ono of
the greatest moans yet devised of sav
ing for the future. Sokller.s may put

Buy Liberty Bonds and Protect Your Homes
Says President of Women's Club Federation
Mrs. George Zimmerman, of Fremont, President of the Ohio Feder
atlon of Women's Clubs and chairman of the Women's Committee of the
Ohio Branch Council of National Defense, has issued this stirring call to
the women of the Fourth Federal Reserve District to assist la this second
Liberty Loan campaign:
"BUY YOUR BOND FOR LIBERTY TODAY."
"Because It is a good investment.
"Because it helps to keep business going, as «v«ry cent of the money
raised by these bonds is spent In this country.
"Because if these bonds do not sell, the necessary money must be
raised by such heavy taxation as to cripple every industry in the land, and
the poor would not be able to provide themselves with the bare necessities
of life. Everything would go into taxation. Hence come these bonds as
true saviors of the poor.
"Because the buying of a bond gives the Investor a real part In win
ning the war.
"Because ft helps save the lives of American soldiers and hastens the
day when from the battle front and from the training camps our young
men may return to their rightful places in civilian life.
"Remember that this war is more than a national crisis it Is Indi
vidual in its effrct upon the nation. It brings to each and every one the
menace of disorder and peril.
'TrusBianiBm Is a menace not to France and England alone, but to the
United States—to your state, to your city, to your home. Women of
America, BUY YOUR BOND FOR LIBERTY TODAY TO PROTECT
YOUR HOME."
What Our Country Is Fighting For
There is a story of singular beauty ooncerning a young French officer
who, in answer to the question, "What are you fighting for?" stooped
quickly, tore a piece of sod from the earth, pressed it to hia llpa, and ex
claimed, "For France, France!"
Commenting upon this incident the New York Evening Sun sayst
France Is literally fighting for her life. If the enemy were
Intrenched in American soil, if American cities had been sacked,
if American men had died by the thousands, if American women
had been put to shame unspeakable, the passion of patriotic love
and yearning so touchingly expressed by the French officer who
kissed the handful of sod would have lta counterpart in the breasts
Of Americans.
The Germans are still only sixty-five miles from Paris, while
three thousand miles of sea separates us from them and cools the
ardor of many. Yet in that sea He the bodies of the Lusitania'S
dead. The .sea, if German victory in France is made complete, will
bear to our shores the same crew that enslaved and outraged
Belgium.
American young men will soon be lying beside the Frenchmen
•nd Englishmen who have given "the last full measure of devo
tion" to the cause of human liberty. Let us see It with our mind's
eye and feel It in our hearts. Let us, too, seize the soil of our
country as a precious thing and hold it to our lips and our breasts.
Our country, too, Is fighting for national existence.
Our gallant troops are crossing those three thousand miles of aea to
make sure that "the crew that enslaved and outraged Belgium" is made
powerless to visit a Bimilar fate on our beloved land.
Back up your country. Lend your money to your government and help
win the war for home, flag, and human liberty.
Buy Liberty Bonds.
What Is Back of Your Bond
Much haa been written about the investment safety of a Liberty bond.
This safety should never have been questioned.
A United States bond, whether Liberty bond or any other kind, is
purely and simply the government's promise to pay a certain amount at a
given date, with Interest at this or that rate during the interim.
And a United States greenback is no more or less, lacking, of course,
the interest featura The only real difference is that the greenback Is
legal tender while the bond is not. You can pay your grocer, your land
lord, any creditor, with the greenback. Before you can pay from your
bond investment you timet trade tha bond for the greenback.
But both are backed by all the resources of the country and stability
Of the government. Just, so long as an American dollar is worth a dollar,
a fifty dollar Liberty bond will bo worth fifty dollars anywhere on earth.
Uncle Sam will have to go broke before *-*hvr u-come*

"Many officers and men have made

themselves into the .spirit of the new
