YOU are reading every day of oer brave boys over there— of Pershing’s Army charging into the blasting, blinding fire of the German hordes. You hear of small American detach ments smashing their way thru ruined villages and rescuing men, women and children who have been abject slaves of the German brutes for years. You are often told of rare American heroism—of single handed deeds of sacrifice and valor. Among the American soldiers there is only one thought— one impulse—to fight and keep on fighting until the war is won! The boys over there know that all America is back of them. They know that they can count on you and me to send them the guns and supplies they need to win. There’s only one way to do it. All of us must work and save and buy Liberty Bonds to provide the money the Govern ment MUST have! Have you bought your share of the Fourth Liberty Loan? If not, see your banker about it and do your duty as a patriot. Nothing Can Hold Back the American Soldier! When the Shrill Whistle Blows, “Forward,” Over the Top He Goes! J% ND he keeps going till he gets what he started after! No ^ bursting shrapnel nor poisonous gases daunt him! No fear of bursting bombs and bullets stops him. Forward he goes, his whole heart and soul set on putting the German brutes out of business. That’s the “American'1 way of fighting—to know no retreat, to stand no defeat, to go Forward to Victory! The same sharp challenge to battle is sounded for us right here at home. We must answer in the same American way with our dollars. We must lend our money to finance the fight. Our task is to pay for the ships, the guns, the shell, the food and clothes of our boys who are fighting for our protec tion. Y/e must work—and save—and lend—with one thought only—Victory! We must show the war-maddened hun a united American people moving shoulder to shoulder to Victory. Get in the fight, Mister—with your whole heart! Do your share in the scrap. ■: .
