Liberty Loan Bonds are the safest in
vestment in the world today. They are
issued by the United States Government
and are a mortgage on the United States of
America our country the richest coun
try in the world. They are Uncle Sam's
promise to pay, and he is worth $225,000,-000,000.
XL
Liberty Loan Bonds pay V-fc Interest
and they may be had in any of the follow
ing denominations: $50, $100, $500, $1000,
$5000, $10,000, $50,000 and $100,000. You

the balance. Most big business houses
will accept Liberty Loan Bonds same as
cash in payment for merchandise.
-A MESSAGE FROM SECRETARY W. G. M'ADOO-
"Wars cannot be conducted without money. It Is the first
thing to be provided. In this war it is the most immediate
help the most effective help that we can give. We must not
be content with a subscription of two billion dollars we must
oversubscribe this loan as an indication that America is stirred
to the depths and aroused to the summit of her greatness in
the cause of freedom. Let us not endanger success by complac
ent optimism. Let us not satisfy ourselves with the reflection
that some one else will subscribe the required amount. Let
every man and woman in the land make it his or her business
to subscribe to the Liberty Loan immediately, and if they can
not subscribe themselves, let them induce somebody else to sub
scribe. Provide the Government with the funds indispensably
needed for the conduct of the war and give notice to the ene
mies of the United States that we have 'billions to sacrifice in the
cause of Liberty.
"Buy a Liberty Bond today; do not put it off until tomor
row. Every dollar provided quickly and expended wisely will
shorten the war and save human life."
W. G. M'ADOO, Secretary of the Treasury.

A PATRIOTIC DUTY.
Liberty Bonds and tlie Road Bonds go hand in hand to ask
for the support of the citizens of the State of Oregon. The Lib
erty Bonds are essential to the successful termination of the
var financially and the Road Bonds are essential to the building
of a system of highways in the State of Oregon, highways which
tap the main arteries of trade and make for rapid military tran-tits.
The United States government, through the Secretary of
Agriculture and the National Council of Defense, is urging upon
the various states the building of military roads. The govern
ment urges the completion at once of those roads now in the
course of construction and, the starting of new work as soon as
it can be put under way.
This is what the State Legislative Committee that framed
ike bonding measure had in mind when they outlined a system
cf highways throughout the State of Oregon which overlooked
do section of the State. Primarily the roads are marketing
mads, inasmuch as they tap that country in the producing sec
tions. This in itself is invaluable from a military standpoint.
If there are any people who have been skeptical about vot
ing for the road bonding measure because this country is in a
Kfate of war, that skepticism may at once be dispelled when
Vncle Sam himself is urging the building of more and better
roads at this time.
, Again, some of those opposed to the bond bill have tried to
euchre others into voting against the measure under the mis
information of higher taxes. Oregon has been carrying on a
f rusade against higher taxes for two years, and the leaders in
fliat fight were the framers of the bonding measure. THEY
SAW TO IT THAT TAXES WOULD NOT BE PILED HIGH
ER THAN THEY ARE, FOR THEY PUT THE BURDEN OF
THE $0,000,000 BONDING BILL UPON THE SHOULDERS
CF THE OWNERS OF MOTOR YEHICLES. ,
The people of Oregon have been wallowing in mud up to
tlieir necks every since the State was admitted to the Union,
and before. Its high time we were pulling the old state out of
the mud and PUTTING HER UP IN THE FRONT RANK
WITH OTHER STATES OF THE NORTHWEST.
ITS A PATRIOTIC DUTY THAT WE SHOULD NOT
OVERLOOK WHEN WE GO TO THE POLLS MONDAY.
VOTE 314 X YES.

BUICK DESIGN
BUICK VALVE-IN-HEAD POWER
The lightness of the Buick Valve-in-Head motor and
not the enthusiasm of its salesmen has made the Buick
conspicuous for leadership.
- This new four has a Buick Valve-in Head motor (with
electric starter) which develops thirty-fire horse power
on brake test and is so reliable for rugged service that no
eulogy is necessary among "men who know Buick."
Its lines are beautiful. Finish and color are exception
al. Deep, tufted black genuine leather upholstery. Cov
ered floor and running board, with aluminum bindings,
give a trimness of appearance that is peculiarly Buick.
Body, hood, fenders and running gear are painted a
glossy, long-wearing black; wheels are black with white
stripes. Times 31x4 inches.
