Barbed wire is one of the
big factors in the German’s
trench fighting.
Mile upon mile of it, row after
row, its barbs hidden, but cov
ered with poison which spreads
destruction through the Allied
ranks. A silent witness to the
scheme of frightfulness.
Your money will help break
a way through. Help to batter
a way through the German wire.
Add to the money that will
buy the guns to blast the path
to victory. Help to shorten the
war and to bring our gallant
soldiers home.
Surely there is no nobler task
for money than this.
Your patriotism, your pride
in those brave men who have
offered their all, demands that
you lend your utmost, all you
can save or even borrow.
A large loan is asked for.
The greatest amount you can
lend is needed — every dollar
counts — but if a War Bond is
quite beyond your means, you
can save something every week
and often pay $4.12 for a War

Much good corn-mea-l and rice
