"An army can move only as fast as its

Engineers and 'infantry need- artillery
support. All need ammunition ... food
. and they need moral support . .
proof that we, at home, are doing all we
can to back them up.
Attack wins objectives. Support wins
Wars.
And that is where we, on the home front,
fit into thewar programme. We must
furnish support. We must buy more
Victory Bonds. -
Bear in mind that part of the money
which Victory Bonds provide is used,
to buy foods which Canadian farmers
produce and which is needed to feed our
fighters and the fighting forces of our
allies.
Victory Bonds are a good investment
the safest place that you can put your
savings. You, should buy them to have
money for things you want to do when
the war ends, (In case of emergency
you. can get cash for them.) All the
money you invest in Victory Bonds
comes back to you eventually. Mean-
time your bonds earn 3% interest.
Your banker will tell you it's good
business to put your savings into Victory
Bonds.
