VER; In the sodden trenches amid the bursting hells and the roar of artillery where Canada's b.) 1s are_ fighting and dying. —the are waiting for ^`s y Canada s sale of Victory Bolds' begins. ANADA 'S soldiers expect that we at home will putup the mil- lions they 1111lionsthey need to keep on fighting, -the millions they must have to win Victory for freedom, home and Canada'. What answer will Canada make? What answer will you ,Hake? Shall it be said that Canada spares not -her sons from the sacri- fice of battle, yet withholds her dollars to give them victory? Rather will it be said that Can- ' n;tda„ once more, for the fourth tiljie in three years, cheerfully puts up her rnillions upon millions for the cause of freedom, right- eousness d.nd justice. Canada's answe1'. titusi . be, answer when. the —that the Canadian hand to the plow- of Victory holds stead- fast and firm. —that Canada is in deadly earnest when she says the "last man and the last dollar." That is the answer Canada will give to our boys in the trenches, our kinsmen in Britian, . olid our Allies everywhere. -- That is the answerwe will give to the Huns who thought and said that Canada would desert the Empire before she would• fight or pay. Every bond you buy is an answer. Let the millions of an- savers from Canada's loyal men and women make a chorus of Victory to ring around the_ world.
