Liberty Loan Slides
AS we stated last week, we have compiled suggestions for slides which the operators of the country can prepare themselves to supplement those being sent out by the government.
Facts are what count. In order to sell anything from shoes to advertising space, facts must be the basis. Government Bonds must be sold on facts — the need of the government for money, the fact that Liberty Bonds are the best security in the world, and the exact statement of fact as to just what can be bought with the money which is traded in to the government for a bond of any size.
The facts which are given below are detailed. They are also absolutely authentic, as they come from Liberty Loan headquarters. They can be used as they stand, or if desired can be re-grouped as long as the statements made are not changed— THEY ARE FACTS.

A $50 BOND
Will pay the U. S. war bill for one-tenth of a second, Will buy 1000 rifles cartridges, Knives, forks and spoons for a company, or Four gas masks, to save four lives.
Sign a card today. Uncle Sam does not ask you to pay for your bond all at once.
SUFFERING TO A RED-BLOODED MAN MEANS
FIGHT.
Think of this. 100 hand grenades — 104 rifle grenades, 37 first-aid packets — 10 bayonets and scabbards, 50-37 mm. shells — one high explosive airplane bomb. Any one of these for a $50 Baby Bond. The more you buy the more Germans the boys will get. Sign now and sign the limit.
THINK OF IT.
Two soldiers completely equipped 10 45-catore automatic pistols
Food for a Yank for a year or 20 pairs of field shoes $150 buys any one of them $600 buys them all You can't help signing up. A #50 Bond buys part.

HELP GET THE KAISER
Every $1000 bond we buy means — 33 rifles
148 pairs of shoes 2000 pounds of T.N.T. or
1 rolling kitchen.
It is up to you — the boys can't win without your backing. This means money. Help feed them, arm them, clothe them.
Bonds are the answer. Sign for something today.
$2,000,000 pays for the war for one hour. Think it over — 24 hours in one day — $48,000,000
$3,336,000,000 PER WEEK. Do you wonder we need money?
Every little bit helps to do your bit — sign up for all you can.
NOW.
We urge that these slides be made by every operator in the country who has the facilities for doing so. They can be shown when the four-minute men or the special speakers are talking to the audience, and by their use the people can have facts brought to their attention which otherwise would never be brought out. It is one method of showing your patriotism.
