between breakfast time and noon, a bombing plane can 9y fromGreenland to our
own Maritimes and Quebec—a mere matter of 5 hours; to Winnipeg in less than
9 hours, to Vancouver in 101A hours. From German-occupied France, bomb -
laden planes can carry destruction to Toronto, Niagara, Ottawa and Montreal
in less than 10 hours. Night and day, in the British Isles and on the sea, in and
out of uniform, men defend your home from attack as surely as though they
stood and fought at your own doorstep. Will you help to supply them with
tools to carry on the fight—your fight? Will you help to make certain that there
shall never be an "occupied" Canada?

tanks—munitions of war that will hurry the return of our men to their homes,
insure our way of life. Lend your money by buying Victory Bonds NOW!
