PIRAUA WINI COMPANY SAN FRANCISCO kiTV Will you he lucky enough to have a glass roof over your head ? You hear a lot and read a lot about how tho post-war world is going to be a kind of wonder land . . . A wonderland of tear-drop automobiles, helicopters, cloth ing made fiom coal, and houses from glass. It's all quite possible. It's all quite probable. But let's not forget that these things won't come free of charge. Let's not forget that Amer ica as a country . . . Americans as individuals . . . will need money, and plenty ol it, to make these dreams of a peacetime world come true. We'll need money to "cushion" the change over from wartime production to peacetime production. We'll need it to create markets for post-war goods . . . keep factory wheels turning . . . prevent depression. And you-you, personully-will need it for your own security in days of changing condi tions, shifting employment. Today, you have that money. Are you letting It slip through your fingers? Or are you using it to help your Country win the war . . . and help yourself enjoy the fruits of Peace? Every War Bond you buy ana hold does both these things. Every $3 you invest now to back the Attack will bring you back $4 at a time when you may want and need those dol lars much more than you do today. So, keep on buying Bonds with every dol lar you can scrape up. Hang on to them against all temptation. There's no better way to back up your fight ing men. There's no better way to be sure of having the good things, the good life, in the world of tomorrow.
