What you will be asked
Mark well the date-Thursday, September 9th. For on (hat day,
you must answer to your country's call.
On that day, the 3rd War Loan Drive opens. To you—and to every
other true American—a clarion call goes forth to rally to the support
of our flag.
You will be asked to back our fighting forccs to the very limit of
your resources. You will be asked to go am.«out for invasion by
investing in extra War Bonds—more War Bonds than you perhaps
think you can possibly afford.
To meet the national quota, every individual in the country who
earns a wage or draws an income or has accumulated funds must
invest, if he possibly can, in at least one extra $100 War Bond.
Those who can, must invest more — thousands of dollars* worth
more. Each and every one must do his full part.
Scrape up the money from every source you can ... turn in all
the loose cash you carry with you ... dig out what you had tucked
away "just in case." Go without pleasures, luxuries, even necessi-
ties this September. And give our fighting men the things they need
to fight with-and win.
These men are throwing everything they have into this fierce
invasion push. They are giving their blood, their lives. No one can
put a price on such courage, self*sacrifice, devotion. But you cait'
show you're with them to the limit! You can say it with Bonus .. •
