DID YOU KNOW— That in nearly all Americans there is a YEN for natural optimism—we know that the war will not be over to- morrow—we know that it may be a hard long fight, but we can’t help looking forward to the beautiful rose colored days of peace. That is all right unless—it makes us relax our effort to win—UNLESS—it makes us lose our memory of the results of the last war. DON’T let us lose that memory of the depression, the pover ty, the long bread lines, the soldiers walking the streets looking and look ing for work, and not finding it. Peace will bring economic problems, and this time let us be ready to meet them face to face and have the solu tion for those boys who come back. Let us back them up now and then with the Bonds that will spell VIC TORY, PEACE and SECURITY.
