Buy Victory BondsYour
Duty la Before You.
This is no time to dl;u the issue,
for you are ohlirated by your citizen
ship to buy bonibi of the government
in order that the financial debt of this
war may bu met. The part of the
man who stayed at home is cany.
tTho soldier who offcicil hit all
is the man who deserves the credit,
nntl whether he (rot overseas or re
mained in cantonment he is the out
standing figure of the war. Jf he did
not get overseas it was not his fault,
if he did ko over he did excellent
work. .
The mere buying of security that
returns a Kood interest anil i safe is
not u heavy net of patriotism and no
one should object lo economizing in
1 order to do that much.
Tho fact that Union county s quota
has been pledged by Mr. Kiddle anil
the banks have become Bellini; accntr.
for the bonds does not lesson anyulics'
individual responsibility. This pli'de;
hi!: was done to place Uniun county'
at tnc top of the list, fin" we all know
the bonds must be sold here and what
was the use lauKmif behind' It was
proper to pledge Union county ove;
the top, for over the top she will. t;o.
Hul to do this gracefully every citizen
must remember his duty and instead
of bcihjr drtiKKcd in by the neck to buy
a bond' he must show his patriotism
by stepping up to his banker and ask
ing for tho security.
(Jet ready to be the first at your
bank when the bonds ko on sale. You
will be mighty happy when you knowi
that .without solicitation, without the
usual organization to draw men in,
you have in your safety box a boni1
which you asked for. .
