WAR -TIME DUTIES
ire loyal, obey the laws, pay
ordinary taxes, provide for self
and family, save something for
'future independence—these
are the relatively simple duties
(of citizenship in peace -time.
"But in :war -time things are dif-
ferent
ifferent. Even though he may not
have the privilege of
joining the armed
forces, the citizen has
arduous•duties, which call on his great-
est resources of character, industry and
:financial means. Added to the normal
requirements are the obliga-
tions of extraordinary taxes,
VictoryBonds and war charities.
So great are the .financial duties
imposed by war that the citizen
must resort to unusual, drastic,
systematic, determined saving
to meet them.
The Bank of Montreal offers
you the service of a Special Sav-
ings
avings Account, in which you can
deposit every pay-day, or other income
date, the right proportionate amount to
cover your war obligations when due.
