Paragraphs and Slogans.
W. S. S. will help buy liberty
and justice.
Should we not consider it a
privilege to save to help ouf boys.
Lend your money as freely as
our boys are giving themselves.
It is cheaper to spend a lot of
money to win the war than not
to win it.
Are you grateful that 2.000,
000 of our boys, enlisted in our
Army and Navy, are giving U3
security at home? If you are,
turn your gratitude into ,War
Savings Stamps.
Samuel Gompers says: "We
can forego luxuries for a time,
be content with the primary ne
cessities of life, in order to save
for the future our heritage of
freedom and the things of the
spirit."
George M. Reynolds president
of the Continental and Commer
cial National Bank of Chicago,
says: II we get to be a .Nation
of wise savers we shall also be a
Nation with a more certain busi
ness future.
If you save to the utmost of
your capacity and buy W. S. S.
and Liberty Bonds to the limit of
your financial resources you will
be as genuinely patriotic as any
one. But do not forget that this
means the limit of your financial
resources the limit reached aft
er downright' hard savings sav
ing that represents sacrifice.
J. Leonard Replogle, a fore
most man in the country's steel
industry, and now Director of
Steel Supply of the War Indus
tries Board, says: "This is a
crisis, and commercialism must
be absolutely sidetracked. There
is just one thing that we have to
do win the war!"
Wheii one of our soldier or sail
or boys makes the supreme sac
rifice we say he died doing his
duty. When ono of us over here
buys an interest-bearing Govern
ment security we want to be call
ed a patriot. Let's . buy War
Savings Stamps to help our coun
try and not to be glorified.
Too much importance has been
given Thrift Stamps. They are
all right in their place. But do
not make the mistake of think
inor vnii hnvo Anno vnnr flnfrv
when you have bought a Thrift
Stamp when you should have
brought a $5 W. S. S. There is
no patriotism in trying to deceive
yourself and your Government.
Card of Thanks.
Mrs. William L. Duvall wishes
in this way to express to her
neighbors and friends her sincere
gratitude for the help and sympa
thy at the time of the death of
her husband.

Let Uncle Sam have the coal
Thousands of tons of coal will be saved this summer in homes that
formerly used a kitchen range all during the hot weather. These homes
are going to use oil cook stoves so there will be more coal next winter
and therefore more for the government Will your home be one of them ?
It should be.
NEW PppCTlON
OIL GOOK-STQVES
will be in the majority of these homes and
there should be one in yours. You will
not only save coal you will save money.
Kerosene is far cheaper than coal. And
with a New Perfection you can have the
same good things to eat and with less
work, trouble and time. It doesn't heat
up the whole kitchen like a coal fire
does, either. You can regulate the heat
exactly as you want it. No fire to fix.
No ashes to bother with. Many good
cooks prefer to use a New
Perfection the year 'round.
But they get the best re
sults (and you will too) when
they use Atlantic Rayolight Oil instead of
ordinary kerosene. The difference is in
the quality the way it is refined and pu
rified. All waste matter is taken out. All
the heat-producing elements are left in.
Atlantic Rayolight is a superior kerosene
yet the price is no more than for the
other kinds. There's a dealer near you
who sells Atlantic Rayolight Oil. Look for
the sign, "Atlantic Rayolight Oil For Sale
Here." Decide right now that you will
have a New Perfection Oil
ATLANTIC C.nrAr Sfrwp this enmmoi
Your dealer can show you
one now. Go and see it today.
