To Lawrence War Bond Buyers!

Douglas County has just one more week in which
to reach its quota of two million dollars in the Fourth
War Bond Drive. That means the sale of one-half million
dollars of War Bonds in that week. The citizens of
Lawrence have responded loyally as always, but a greater
response is necessary if we are to reach our quota in the
allotted time.

Perhaps you have bought to your limit, or to what
you thought was the limit, of your resources. But, realizing
the pressing necessity for funds to carry on the great naval
and military operations on land and sea, and the greater
sacrifices the men in the armed forces are making, is it
possible for you to squeeze out another hundred or perhaps
another thousand for War Bonds.

If you are a business man, perhaps you have funds
in reserve for later purchases or improvements. If so,
consider a temporary investment in the 7/8 % Treasury
Certificates. They are the practical equivalent of cash,
will yield a smail interest return and will materially aid
government financing, The same may be said of the Treasury
Savings Notes, Series C.

If you have not bought, or have not bought your
limit, go to your own bank and do it today. Let’s finish
the job!

Sincerely yours,

an
