If you have denied yourself pleasures and comforts to buy Victory Bonds ... you, too, have 'played a part in helping your country's war effort. You have worked and saved and lent your savings to your country. With- out this help from you :.. and from. millions of her citizens, your country could not have inaintained the promi- neat place she now occupies among the freedom -loving nations. Canada has the use of your savings to help to win victory. (You will have this money to use for your own. needs later.) Perhaps you wish you could have done more. Well, you will be asked to 'do more. Men who have come back will tell you that there is lots to do yet. Canadians are on active Service, on the fighting fronts. More money is needed to support their effort. You are asked to keep on working and saving and you will be asked to put more savings into Victory Bonds. They are the best investment any Canadian can make; an investment than every Canadian should make. way to kif VICTORY BONDS 8tVictoryl.oaet Opens Apal 23rd NATIONAL WAR FINANt;IB CoMMFITes A.3s
