Lou Neilly is a typical Ontario farmer with
85 acres just north of Bradford. Two . of the
Neilly sons joined the R.C.A.F. One son was
killed in service. The other is a Flight -Lieutenant
on active service.. A bond buyer himself, Lou
Neilly personally sold $200,000 worth of Victory
Bonds in the first four loans to people of his
own township.
When Lou Neilly leans across a fence' and chats
with neighbors he often talks about , Victory
er o�
ct� r
iers
Bonds, and that it's everybody's duty to buy them.
He . says something like this—his message to you:
"The biggest chore in my life is doing what I can
to win,this war. I want my son and his pals., your
sons, to get everything they need to do their job
over there—wherever they are. I want too, to put
aside what savings I can into Victory Bonds to give
my oldest boy a fresh start when he takes off his.
uniform. You can put savings a great many places,.
but there is only one place where your savings will
give our boys in service the help they need now.
Everybody -knows -that Victory _Bands are -as -gob -d.
as dollar bills—and that you can borrow on them
any time:you need cash ---but we should buy bonds
as our duty to our fighting men. •
