This might be an excellent use for some of the barbed wire left over from the beachheads and barricades. Placed between a man and the War Bonds he's safely tucked away, it would give him pause . . . in case he was tempted to cash in a single Bond. It would make him stop and think . . . , Stop and think that those Bonds will mean income . . security . . . and perhaps even a good measure of financial independence in the unpredictable postwar world. Stop and think that every Bond will bring back not just its purchase price but $4 for every $3 at mateurity. Stop and think that holding War Bonds is as vital to Vic tory as buying them . . and as vital to a secure future for the individual, a secure future for his country. Put your War Bonds in a safe place. And keep them there ... as you keep on buying more. Ten years from now, you'll thank your lucky stars you did. ONE OF OREGON'S FINE DEPARTMENT STORES 2291 E.
