A FIGHTING AMERICA
" Save Animal Fats. Use Vegetable
Fat. Substitution will do more for food
conservation than the strictest economy."
U. S. Food Administration
Mrs. Ora B. LeBow.
A letter was received recent
ly by the officers of the Fed
eral Reserve Bank at Dallas
that made a deep impression on
all who read it. We quote H
in full:
"Your circular, 'The Victory
of the Ages,' has just reached
me to.lay, and I assure you 1
endorse it with all my heart.
I am a widow of a soldier, also
a mother of one and I have
but one son. He enlisted in the
U. S. N. last May. 1 gave my
eon to America and I am proud
of him. He was my all. 1 Itm
sixty-four years old. I did not
have enough money last Octo
ber to buy even a $50.00 Lib
erty Bond, but I want one. My
Bon was on the sea at that time
and could not send me any
money until he reached his des
tination, but I have saved five
and ten cents till I can now
get one.
"What would you advise
wait till the next Loan is placed
before the people? I believe
that will be April the 6th.
Kindly advise me.
"I am with you for victory
or death. Oh, how I wish I was
a boy just like mine, so I could
do more to help win the war."
On receipt of the letter Mrs.
LeBow was requested to write
again, and, in her own way, tell
just why everyone should buy
Liberty Bonds. Her reply to
this request is also quoted:
"Why should all people be
glad to subscribe to these Lib
erty Bonds?
"Because it takes money as
well as men to win tins war.
We have the men, let's have
the money. This is our part
the part for us who stay at
home in ease and comfort. It
is also the very least part that
we can take, to loan to Uncle
Sam our money, when he paya
s back with interest. Our
sons have said so gladly,
'Here am I, send me. Uncle
Sam,' some are now this mil
ute in the trenches facing shot
and shell, and shall we who
have no hardships to endure, be
less patriotic than they, who
give their lives if need be, for
our homes and country? Let
us give as cheerfully of our
money as they have of their
lives and hopes for the future.
For they are young men, they
have laid their all on their
country's altar. Let us not hes
itate to pledge our last dollar,
and more, if Uncle Sam calls
again. I do not think that the
American people will be found
wanting, and may the God who
rules over the destinies of na
tions make us strong to lift
high the Star Spangled Banner,
and never let the old flag fall,
at home or abroad, and. like
Patrick Henry said, 'Give me
liberty or give me death.' Then,
and only then, will we win this
dreadful war."
Is there one among us who
can not or will not catch the
spirit of this dear old Spartan
mower
She responds in spirit and in
reality, to the call of country
and humanity. She gives her
all, husband, son, and carefully
hoarded scanty savintrs. so thnt
the world "may be made a safe
place to live in."
What a demonstration of na
triottem, sacrifice, and whole
hearted co-oneration is nrasent.
od in the view-point of this
aged mother!
With the same spirit havina
possession of all our hearts and
minds, it can easily be seen
why the Third Liberty Loan
will be Kiibso.rihoH wlfVi
and Uncle Sam will have the
benefit of our efforts toward
maintaining our nation's share
of the world's fight for a last
ing peace, a peace not dictated
by German force and brutality.

OU have probably been told
of the world's shortage in
fats animal fats particularly.
Has the force of this condition
come home to you?
Our fighting men need fats
for their energy. Our Govern
ment needs fats for munitions.
Millions of devitalized women
and children abroad need fats
for life itself does this appeal
fall on deaf ears?
Does so much as an ounce of
lard or butter steal its way into
your cooking? If so, there is
not the slightest' necessity or
excuse for it.
Do you realize that this
country produces vast quantities
of pure, nutritious cooking fats
