It means that repayment of the money will be spread over ten or twenty years instead of being raised by taxation to meet current expenditures. To raise by taxation all the money as fast as' it is needed to carry on Canada's share in winning the war, would be an unbearable burden upon. the people. It would mean that more than a million dollars a day would have to be, .d right .now. But to raise money by selling Canada's Victory Bonds means that those of the i eneration who will benefit by the sacrifices this generation is making; r y� —who will share in the freedom thi F generation is fighting for alid Iarg;;:J. for will also pay their share. * • And when you buy Canada's Victory Bonds you make a first-class business in - veal -wont in a security that is absolutely' safe, likely to enhance in value after the war, and be,a ring a good rate of interest,' 'Von help the country by keeping open, the British market for Canadian products and this helps the general welfare its which you share. * * And again, every Canadian who buys a Victory Bond becomes a financial partner or backer of Canada in the war. Whet' you buy a Canada VictoryBond you give a personal pledge that you are going to help to win the war. l ve.i y man and woman in Canada can help to 11i.e wax by buying Canada's Victory Bonds. Ancl Canada wants the individual interest and co-operaa tion of every man and woman in the country. The buying of Victory Bonds by the whole people unites them in adetermiination, to win the war. Every purchase of Canada's Victors Bonds is a blow for freedom against the tyranny. of German Mishits. Evety bond sold is a titres' guar !tee that Canada is in the war to the finish* until victory is with the Allies and • tltc world has been tirade safe to live in. Every bond you burr is a new pledge that Canada will seri ain true to herself, the Zmpire, the Allies and to freedona'a cause. So it is both patriotic and good busty ness to uy Canada's Victory Bonds tssued by Canada's Victory Loan Committee in caopexatiott withthe 'Minister of l lattice of the Doilainioli of Canada., 72 or Thursday, Nev.
