Do Not Set Afloat .
Any Sort of
Discouragements
The President knows what he is
doing. He has our confidence.
Philadelphia sensible, and will
support him faithfully.
Philadelphia has sent off to the
war tens of thousands of its men to
the front and thousands of doctors
and nurses to care for our boys.
The temporary epidemic is wan
ing, and now the last week is on for
the Fourth Liberty Bonds.
Not to take them promptly
under the necessities of the hour
would embarrass Washington and
be a setback of incalculable mis
chief. We oversubscribed the . First
Liberty Loan. .
We oversubscribed the Second
Liberty Loan. .
We paid for our quota of the Third
Liberty Loan.
, Let us give our minds to this one
thing all this week and roll up the
full quota of the Fourth Liberty
Loan. To do it will tell for good. It
is not impossible for the Bonds to
"sell above the subscription price
much sooner than expected a
; month ago. Let us fill the Treas:
ury of the United States and
strengthen the arms4of
the President
the Secretary of War
the Secretary of the Navy
When the war does end the ships
now building, the clothes and
yictuals of our soldiers and sailors,
the hospitals of the wounded and
their self-sacrificing doctors,
nurses, encampment comforts and
conveniences will require the
United' States to lay out large
amounts of ready cash -every
month for months to come. .
All the banks testify that
the security is good
fw tVipir willingness to. lend
Liberty Bonds at 4 per cent.
The bond of the United States
Government is the best thing for a
woman or a working man to have
ior a safe investment.
We shall be glad for standing up
together in this Liberty Loaji har
vesting; and not to do it will be an
everlasting disgrace for the City
where Liberty was born. .
