VICTORY BOND DIGEST
Why should I buy Bonds now that the War is
over A good question with many answers
Buy them for the sake of our boys the mil-
lions still in uniform the hundreds of thou-
sands on the way home To help bind the
wounds of the suffering To help them start
life anew
The shooting has stopped but its not all over
yet not till the last man is back can we on
the home front consider our obligations met
Obligations we owe to every man who served
in the cause of Liberty Its a costly undertak-
ing a responsibility we must not neglect
Thats why our Government needs Eleven
Billion Dollars invested in Victory Bonds
Could there be a better reason
