Zim-, merman, now a t Camp Sheridan, Montgomery, Ala., sends this message ; to the people of the Fourth Federal1 r Reserve district: "Ohio soldiers want to get at the Germans as soon as possible and are more than willing to pay part of the cost to light. That is why officers and men- here are buying Liberty Bonds with the some, zeal that they are put* ting into their training. Another rea- son why they* are subscribing to the Liberty Loon is because the- same lib- eral.Uncle Bam who feeds and clothes them here In camp standa back of sirery bond. "it is the safest investment in the world and the Liberty Bond is one of the greatest means yet devised of sav- , tag. for the future. Soldiers may put •side a part of their pay each month to buy bonds and many’ of them are counting on collecting interest after for many years. , Many officers and men h(tre made big. sacrifices in a financial way in or* d®P W be here, but they are throwing themselves into the spirit of the new Liberty Loan Campaign with the same sest Jn which they offered their serv­ ices as soldiers. “Soldiers realize that the loan must he quickly subscribed If the war is to be pressed with the greatest vigor. That is why thy are watching the ac­ tion of the folks back home. They are confident that they will not be disap­ pointed. My Uttle detachment of four officers and 15 enlisted men have sub­ scribed $7,200. Bach of the training battalions under my command hun averaged $15,000. Total subscription $97,000.’? Buy liberty Bonds and Protect Your Homes Says President ofWomen’s Club Federation Mrs. George Zimmerman, of Fremont, O., President of the Ohio Feder­ ation of Women’s ClubB and chairman'of the Women’s Committee of the Ohio Branch Council of National Defense, has issued this stirring call to the women, of the Fourth Federal Reserve District to assist In this second Liberty Loan campaign: ■ ' "BUY YOUR BOND FOR LIBERTY TODAY." “Because it is a good investment. "Because it helps to keep business going, as every cent of the money raised by these bonds is spent in. this country. "Because if these bonds do not sell, the necessary money must be raised, by such heavy taxation as to cripple every industry in the land, and the poor would not be able to provide themselves with the bare necessities of life- Ev'eryth'ng Would go into taxation. Hence come these bonds as true saviors of the poor. “Because the l uylng of a bond gives the Investor a real part In win­ ning the war. • "Because it helps save the lives of American goidiera and hastens the day when from the battle front and froin the training camps our young men may return to their rightful places in civilian life. ( "Remember that this war is more than a national crisis: It is indi­ vidual in its effect upon the nation. It brings to each and every one the menace of disorder and peril. ■* ■ “Prussianism Is a menace not to France and England alone, but to the United States—to your state, to your’city, to your home. Women of America, BUY YOUR BOND FOR LIBERTY TODAY TO PROTECT YOUR HOME.” What OurCountryIs Fighting For There Is a story of singular beauty concerning a young French officer who, in answer to the question, "What are you fighting for?" stooped quickly, tore a piece of sod from, the earth; pressed it to his lips, and ex­ claimed, "For France, France!" . Commenting upon this Incident the New York Evening Sun says: France is literally fighting for. her life. If the enemy were intrenched in American soil, If American cities had been sacked, if American men hail died by the thousands, If American women had been put to shame unspeakable, the passion of patriotic love and yearning so touchingly expressed by the Frenoh officer who kissed the handful of sod would have its counterpart in the breasts , . of Americans. The Germans are still only sixty-five miles from Paris, while three thousand miles of sea separates us from them and cools the ~ ' ardor of many. Yet In that sea lie the bodies of the Lusitania’s dead. The sea, if German victory in France ie made complete, w*U bear to our shores the same crew that enslaved and outraged Belgium. . American young men will soon be lying beside the Frenchmen and Englishmen wh.o have given "the last full measure of devo- . tlon" to the cause of human liberty. Let,us see It with our mind’s eye and feel it In our hearts. Let us, too, seize the soil of our Country as a precious thing and hold It to our llps.and our breasts. Our country, too, is fighting tor national existence. Our gallant troops are crossing those three thousand miles of sea to make sure that "the crew that enslaved and outraged Belgium" is /made powerless to visit a similar fats on our beloved land. * Back Up your country.
