Protection. This country and t'ne
war effort have been blessed with
six successive years of phenome
nal crop yields and agricultural
production. If a penny is tossed
six times and comes up heads
every time, the probability of the
seventh toss is still 50-50, heads
and tails. Although the succes
sion of good crop years does
not necessarily portend crop fail
ure to come, nevertheless crop
failure is always something that
•should be considered possible.
Money invested in War Bonds will
provide protection for living ex
penses and capital during the dif
ficult years.
Safe Investment. As a rule the
paying off of the “ mortgage” is a
farmer’s best investment. During
the -War years, however, many
farmers have accomplished this,
and are now seeking a safe invest
ment for extra cash. No invest
ment is safer than the Bonds of
our Government. Not only is this
investment a safe one, but the re
turns are attractive. Series E
Bonds held for 10 years return in
terest of 2.9 per cent, compounded
annually—in 10 years $4.00 for
each $3.00 put in.
Patriotic Motive, Not to be for
gotten is the fact that this war
must be won. Farmers have more
sons and daughters in the service
per family than any other group
of our population. We must pro
vide them with the planes, tanks,
guns, ships, and other materials
necessary to speed their return
home.

Many great men and women

and made their mark on the pages
of history. Blind and speechless,

finding it difficult to carry on a
smooth flow of conversation when
excited. The President of the United
States, with remarkable determi
nation, overcame the handicaps
visited upon him by an attack of in
fantile paralysis in middle life.
Because of the many great per
sonages who have achieved success
ful careers in spite of great handi
caps, there are some .who say that
minor physical defects are rela
tively unimportant. That is not
always correct, it is asserted. For
example, studies made by psychol
ogists among school children dis
close that uncorrected visual de
fects in youngsters tend to make
them shy and slow in adjusting
themselves in work and play with
others. Some social investigators go
so far as to say that uncorrected
shortcomings in sight may be an
important factor in juvenile de
linquency.
While it is true that persons with
unusual intelligence, vitality and
courage can rise far' above their
fellows, despite physical defects, it
also appears that in the average
person correction of shortcomings,
when Qpssible, will facilitate his
earning a living and improve his
ability to become a. useful member
of society.
