upon at the meeting was the ap
pointment of a committee for
the immediate undertaking of a
program for the compilation of
the pioneer history of South
western Oregon, particularly
ville, and the recording of lt. In
permanent form. In addition to
this work, it is also planned to
undertake establishment and

"We consider it a good reminder, sir!"
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.
