Everybody is thinking a great deal about the future these days . . . planning . . . getting ready for the period to follow the war. All realize that the war may bring surprises but the tide is turning in our favour. Chemists and engineers, producing things needed for war, are making discoveries which will mean comforts and con- veniences for all of us when peace comes. New methods of making things, new processes, new materials, now being filed away in blue prints and formulae, will bring us many new and useful articles. Many things not available now will be replaced by better models and designs. You may have plans for a new home, remodelling your present home, new home furnishings. If you are a farmer you will need new and improved equip- ment and machinery. Now, while you are thinking and plan- ning, you can do something to insure that your plans can be carried out. Victory Bonds which can be bought on convenient instalments, with money as you get it provide a means of keep- ing your savings intact, earmarked for things you want. Most Canadians are saving money. Most of us are buying Victory Bonds and when we buy Victory Bonds we are helping to win the war. We are helping to speed the day of victory and we are doing something that will benefit ourselves. WHAT IS A VICTORY BOND? A VICTORY BOND is the promise of the Dominion of Canada to repay in cash the face value of the Bond on the date of maturity with half-yearly interest until that time. A Victory Bond is the safest investment in Canada backed by the entire resources of the Dominion. Canada has been issuing bonds for 75 years, and has never failed to pay every dollar of principal and interest when due. A Victory Bond is an asset readily marketable at any time. .
