THIS IS FOR YOU
The CLASS “A” PAY RESERVATION Monthly and Semi­
monthly Savings Plan is under way in this locality. It offers
an opportunity for all members of the Military and Civilian
Establishment, to provide for their future financial security,
and also furnishes a means whereby they may take a direct
part in supporting these United States at a time when such
help is needed most. We urge the co-operation of everyone who
understands the great task the Nation has before it. If each
>ne of us of Camp ADAIR would give this question the serious
consideration it merit», the response should be overwhelming,
thus setting a fine example to the Nation as a whole and paving
the way for ultimate victory.
