N Until The Last Shot Is Fired • • There is no let-up for our fighting men advanc- ing along the bitter road to find Victory. Desperate, vicious enemies stand between them and their final objective — unconditional sur- render. And, shots fired at the eleventh hour are just as deadly as any other. Just because Victory is in sight, we at home cannot sit back and relax. We, .like our sol- diers, must be in there pitching to the very end. When the Victory Loan salesman calls, remem- ber that our soldiers, sailors and airmen are depending on your support—until the last shot is fired. i 1 ' , // / /, / Sponsored by HURON COUNTY NATIONAL WAR FINANCE COMMITTEE.
