DEAR DRUMRIGHT:—
They say, who have come back from "Over There," that at
night the troubled earth between the lines is carpeted with
pain.
They say that Death rides whistling in every wind, and that
the very mists are charged with awful torment.
They say that of all things spent and squandered there,
young human life is held least dear.
It. is not the most pleasant prospect for those of us who yet
can feel upon our lips the pressure of our mother's good-bye
kiss.
But, please God, our love of life is not so prized as love of
right.
In this renaisance of our country's valor, we who will edge
the w edge of her assault make calm acceptance of its hazards.
For us the steel-swept trench, the stiffening cold-wearinesj,
hardship, worse.
For you for whom we go, you millions safe at home—what
for you?
We shall need food.
We shall need care.
We shall need clothes for our bodies and weapons for our
hands.
We shall need terribly and without failure supplies and eouip-
ment in a stream that is constant and never-ending.
From you who are our resources and reliance, who are the
heart and hope of that humanity for which we smite and strive,
must come these things.
Buy your country's bonds.
Buy them today!
The United Staes Government bonds of the Socond Liberty
loan of 1917 are investments made safe for the people.
They are in the highest possible sense a security of the
people, by the people, for the people.
They can be had in denominations so low and on such terms
that virtually every citizen of this nation may share in the
benefits they bring and the purposes they serve.
They are the safest possible investment in the world.
Buy your country's bonds.
Buy them, as the mainspring of our holy endeavor.
As your duty to the cradle and your fealty to the tomb, buy
them.
Buy them today!
