Paid Advertisement Every dollar that li spent to arm a soldier or a tailor, to feed or clothe one; every dollar that Is spent for munitions or cannon, for coal to drive our warthlp and transport supplies, must come from the Treasury, and the Treasury has no source from which to obtain money except the people of the United States. BUY LIBERTY BONDS and furnish the means to arm and feed our sol diers and make them victorious.' of the world strife, One of the most momentous of them all is a lesson to America and Amer icans a lesson to you and me a personal lesson which we shall do wet upon the trenches, and the bane hospitals are ministering to Ameri can wounded. The shadow of tht Death Angrl, "made In Germany,'" lias fallen across your threshold and mine. It Is no longer a thing de tached and apart from us. Wo are in It. The blood of our sacrifice eeks'upon the altar. It Is now a per sonal affair. We you and I must back our boys In the trenches, or forever cease to claim rank and title as Americans, The time .has come when there are jut tvo classes in this country Americans, who are for the war In which our boys are pouring out thplr blood, and traitors, who are either against tho war or indifferent towurd it. And Indifference 1b now, If any thing, more despicable than antago nism. There Is one thing, at least, that most of us can do to prove our aware ness of the situation and our loyalty to those who are fighting OUR, battles over there; most of us can subscribe, n some degree, to the Third Liberty Loan. It Is totally beside the Issue to point out that these bonds are a good investment. The investment featurr is not the thing in question. It may require some sacrifice to convert pres ent holdings into holding of Liberty Loan Bonds. Dut as far as we can manage it, you and I, if wo accept the great lesson of the hour and tako our part In the baptism of American blood which is for the cleansing of the na tions and the rehabilitation oi the world, we must "come across" and come quickly and with thankfulness that It Is given to us to do even so little. Industry, saving and lending to the Government are national needs and national debts. BUY LIE.SRTY B0ND8.
