Seconds count, and team work gets results. Training . . . endless training . . • gets efficiency that makes each man part of a perfect machine. But something more than efficiency is needed to make a top-rank fighting unit. There must be loyalty . . . that spirit of responsibility that each man feels toward his mates. We've got efficiency on the farm front . . . we're producing more, and with less help to do it. Keep up the teamwork that will make each one of us go all out to support our men on the fighting fronts. We too, are part of a fighting unit . . . citizens of a nation at war. We must not let our men on the fighting fronts down. Invasion means high tension on the fighting fronts . . . combined operations . . . thorough team work in every detail. And that call for greater action comes back to us at home. We have a job to do here, too. We must all buy Victory Bonds. We have a responsibility to our mates on the firing line. We can't let them down. And the job that we are asked to do is . . . save more, and lend more to our country. We are asked to let our country have the use of money that we do not need now. We will have the money later on to improve our farms and to buy stock and equipment; for new bams and silos; for new furnishings and conveniences for our homes. Be ready to buy more Victory Bonds.
