CHANCES ARE you’ve partly paid for
this postwar home already in the
many War Bonds you’v j bought.
And, if you keep on buying Bonds, it
won’t be long before the key to the front
door is actually yours.
For, if you’re like most people, you’ve
probably found you can save more money,
more easily through your regular Payroll
Savings Plan than by any other means
you’ve ever used.
... through your Payroll Savings Plan or
other oflicial Bond outlets. You get the
same high return on them too—$25 for
every $18.75 you invest!
In fact, (J. S. Savings Bonds are the
same as War Bonds in everything but name!
So put all your extra dollars into U. S.
Savings Bonds. You’ll be mighty glad you
did... on the day they help you buy your
new home!
• #
So... wouldn’t it be wise to build upon
the fine invfestment you already have in
your War Bonds...with a continued invest
ment in U. S. Savings Bonds?
You can buy your U.S. Savings Bonds just
as easily as you bought your War Bonds
Buy all flie Bonds you can,.,
keep all fhe Bonds you buy i
