Down THROUGH THE AGES

Today our country must arm. No time can be lost.
We must build the greatest war machine the world
has ever known. We must accomplish in two years
more than the enemy has accomplished in seven.

That is why Canada needs your savings—not as a
gift, but only as a loan. Canada’s army must be
maintained and equipped with the most modern
fighting machines. Scores of warships and merchant
vessels must be built. Thousands of planes, thousands
of pilots must be rushed to the scene of conflict.

Britons fought and suffered and died in order that
their children and their children’s children might
be free. Today the forces of darkness threaten to
engulf us once more. Shall we give up those rights
which our forefathers won?

.

So Canada needs the use of your money now. Later
on, Canada will repay you in full. In the meantime,
you will receive regular interest on your loan.

When you buy Victory Bonds, all Canada is your
security. These Bonds are more readily turned into
cash than any other.

ROW TO BUY —Give your order to the canvasser who
calls on you. Or place it in the hands of any branch of any
bank, or give it to any trust aah! pa Or send it to ph
local Victory Loan Headquarters. Bonds may be bought in
denominations of $50, $100, $500, $1,000 and larger.
Canyasser, bank, trust company or your local Victory Loan
Headquarters will be glad to give you every assistance in
makiog out your order form.
