f these cities and Impreis upon them the
need of selecting men above reproach.
If favoritism should be shown or even
inspected In the exemption work dona by

The History of the Offer and the Patriotic Response !
April 17th, "GUARANTEE" Plan first elaborated and submitted to the Secretary of the Treasure
May 2nd, "Guarantee" Plan first published. ' ""
May 14th, Secretary of the Treasury announced that bonds as small as $50 would be issued with
payment in installments maturing August 30th, 1917. "GUARANTEE" Plan extends
payments to February 1st, 1918.
May 2nd, "GUARANTEE" Interim War Loan Receipt No. 1 for $500, issued earlv in the mornine
to a-lady who said "That her ancestors had fought in tho Patriot Army "in 1776 and that
SHE WANTED HER DOLLARS ENLISTED NOW." '
May 26th, "GUARANTEE" Receipt No. 400 issued.
Amounts subscribed have varied.
Receipt No. 13 calls for $40,000.
Receipt No. 11 calls for $10,000.
Ten Receipts are for $5000 each.
Thirty Receipts aro for $1000 each.
Scores are for less than $100 each.
In many cases parents have taken Receipts of from S10 to
ineir cniiaren. unc iamiiy owns eigni ucccipts or $50 each.
There are many SHADES of FINANCIAL
ABILITY represented; but, bright and clear, al
ways tho ONE SENTIMENT of PATRIOTISM
and LOVE of LIBERTY that RINGS AS LOUD
AND AS TRUE IN TEN DOLLARS AS IN TEN
THOUSAND!
The popularity of the "GUARANTEE" Plan
grows out of its STRAIGHTFORWARD and
HONEST EFFECTIVENESS. Wo" MAKE NO
CHARGE, PAY OUR OWN EXPENSES, and
IMMEDIATELY enlist the money of the sub
scriber In the Service of his Country.
On MAY 5th, 1917, we held the first issue
of United States 30 short War Loan Certificates
to the full amount of our sales of "GUARAN
TEE" Receipts.
On MAY 15th, 1917, we again paid for the
second issue in the same way.
On MAY 25th, 1917, we paid in the same
way zor me intra issue.
$30 each for themselves and
