“What Is Money Good for If We Don’t
Win the War?”
to
Loosen up your purse strings, sons and daughters
of Columbia, and take the bonds of the Second Liberty
Loan. Buy them until the pinch of buying brings to
your heart the glow of a good investment made and a
good deed done. If you have one, buy another, and sell
more bonds to other good Americans.
The bonds are your answer, our answer, the one
answer we, as an undivided people, loyal to the cause
of human rights can make to the world war.
The eyes and ears of the world are strained for our '
answer, the eyes of our enemy, more eagerly than the
Our young manhood answers as our boys go to the
firing line; our farmers answer in food for our fighting
men: our manufacturers answer in shoes, uniforms,
gas masks, big guns, little guns, powder, shot and shell;
our shipyards in food ships and fighting ships. But
they speak the answers of individuals. The Liberty
Loan speaks for the whole people. Let our answer tell
friend and foe, that we know we are fighting for human
rights, and stand behind our demand.
Put every dollar you can spare into the
Second Liberty Loan Gold Bonds. They buy
safety for your country, your homes and your
children, now and for years to come.. It buys
life and liberty, without taking a cent away
from you. It fights for us and pays for the
privilege of fighting.
The Second Liberty Loan is the best invest-
ment in the world today. A Liberty Bond is
money, which pays you 4% income. It is
always safe as gold, always worth its face
value.

You may buy Liberty Loan Gold Bonds as
small as $50, and pay for them by install-
ments. Go to your bank—other lands of
democracy are making their fight and sacri-
. fices for democracy.
The hour of America’s opportunity and
privilege strikes. Lend your utmost to your
government. Buy her bonds. Buy, and in
buying, strike our answer home, that the
world may know beyond a doubt America’s
War Answer, "Make the World Safe for
Democracy.”
