YOUR SHARE of the VICTORY
LIBERTY LOAN because dee) down in your heart
you know it is the rinht thinn1 to do.
Never lias Hood River been so optimistic and with
every reason to be. Time lias told. During the past
7 years we have passed from discouragement to pros
perity. To continue prosperous we must save. We
must invest some of our profits in something that will
be a liquid asset in case of adversity. The VICTORY
LOAN BONDS present the best investment it i pos
sible for one to make, because
1st. The Security behind them.
2nd. They are not a speculation.
;rd. They are a quick asset in time of need.
The rate of interest is more than small sums ordi
narily pay. Get Rich Quick men will otl'er you Oil
Stocks, Coffee Plantation Stocks, etc., etc., and offer
you these speculative stocks for your Liberty Bonds,
because Liberty Bonds are better than what they offer
you. Buy VICTORY LIBERTY BONDS and you have
saved your money. Thrift is the word. Save! Save!
Save!
Our quota will be about $200,250.00. which means
that the County will have to be rated in much the same
manner as was used on the Fourth Loan. The bonds
will be issued for a four-year term and draw 4 .
The Committee has nothing else to do except to
follow the plan used last September and to notify each
citizen of the County what is expected of him.
The Committee has faith in the citizenship of Hood
River C-ounty. It has been proven in the past every
time the test has come.
On the llHh of April will be mailed to every citizen:
1st. A subscription blank.
2nd. A circular letter.
3rd. A return envelope.
The circular letter will be brief and tell the amount
expected of you.
The subscription opens the 21st of April and it is
hoped to clean up our quota by May the 1st. If one
desires to go to the bank in person, kindly bring the
papers mailed you.
It is very much to be desired that no personal solic
itation toke plac, and none will be done previous to May
1st. If it has to be done, it will be done.
To properly rate 2,000 individuals is a big job. The
members of the various committees have done the best
they could with the information available. Some will
be underrated, some overrated. The rating is not ar
bitrary. The remedy for underrating is obvious. If
overrated, take the matter up with a'member of the
Executive Comnjittee.
lO'.v of the amount of your subscription has to be
paid in cash. The balance may be paid as follows:
lOVv July 15.
20 August 12.
207 September!).
20 October 7.
20', November 11.
YOUR name may be missed or the mail miscarry.
Let it be your patriotic duty to make the proper sub
scription, if this happens.
Citizens of Hood River are busy people. If you
want a job done, give it to a busy man. There is no
reason why Hood River having subscribed its quota to
the Fourth Loan voluntarily cannot celebrate Victory in
a manner to match.
