6 more reasons for buying at least an extra
$100 War Bond in the 6th!
1. War Bonds are the best, the safest investment in the world!
2. War Bonds return you $4 for every $3 at maturity.
3. War Bonds are as convenient as cash-—and in-
crease in value to boot!
4» War Bonds mean education for your children,
security for you, a nest egg to fall back on come
what may.
5. War Bonds help keep down the cost of living.
6. War Bonds will help win the Peace by increas-
ing purchasing power after the war.

Across the world the sound of shells has ceased ...
And quiet shrouds the battle-rubbled West . . .
The enemy has laid away his arms, and Death and Pain
are done in France.
But I go on ... for I must fight and kill . . ,
And work and sweat . . . and hide and run « , ■
For here the enemy is very much alive , , .
His bullets still are made of lead . . .
Their angry whispers still foretell of sudden death
For me and others crouched in slime and mud . < »
The end for us is yet to come . . .
And so we pray to God to give us strength
To fight and win . . . without the waste of Time , » g
And with His Will ... to see our homes again.
