It taught us that you can't keep your independence without foreeight and sacrifice. We learned what we could do without when we had to. So w know that a real nest-egg means more than just compulsory savings. It mean* all the War Savings Stamps and Cer- tificates we can lay our hands on. They're safe. And they're an invest- ment every Canadian should make. Why? Because they help equip our fighting men to protect everything we've got. And because, too, they pay back $5.00 for every $4.00 we put aside now. We've got to win this war no matter what it costs and we've got to prepare against the time when the boys come home.
