HELP VICTORY LOAN BY PAYING YOUR BiLLS..
There are thousands of retail merchants throughout Canada, especially
in the smaller towns and villages, who would gladly subscribe, or subscribe
more, for Victory Bonds, if it were not for the amount of money they
are carrying nn their books and the uncertainty as to when much of it
will be paid. The farmers who deal with these local merehants are fall
the least blamable in this respect, for they are apt to let their accounts
run until convenient to pay them, while the merchant, knowing that pay-
ment ultimately iscertain, is unwilling to press them.
If everyone during the last week of the campaign would make an effort
to pay his hill to the local merchant, the (atter would he glad to increne'
his Victory Loan subscription. Thousands of farmers have received
substantial sums of money for their crops and ale able to pay their ac-
counts before December 1st just as well as afterward. 1( you are one
of them, see that you pay up during the last week in November anti thus
give your merchant the opportunity he no doubt desires to subscribe
for all the Victory Bonds that he possibly can, and do not forget to
subscribe yourself to the utmost of your power. Patriotism demands it
and so does self -inlet est, for only by a heavy over -subscription of the
Victory Bond issue can the prosperity of the farmers, the retailers and all
other clamors of Canada's population be assured.
