He is a man from your community whom you likely know well . . . perhaps a neighbor. He may never have done any selling before. He has taken on this work because he feels that it ia an important war job that must be done. As a matter of fact he is not trying to sell you anything. He will ask you to save money. Farmers are doing an important war job, too . . . producing food. Most farmers have increased their incomes. They have money to save. ' You plan to use this money, and the things you plan to use it for are necessary things. The Victory Loan salesman will ask you to let your country have the use of your savings now by putting your money into Victory Bonds. Our big job now is to win the war, and to win it as soon as we can. That's why every Canadian is asked to buy Victory Bonds. It's why each of us is asked to buy all we can. You can buy them with cash, which you Itave saved, and you can buy more bonds and pcQr for them as you earn moaeiy, ov«r a period of six months. fit Ketonr^rst BUY BOND NATIONAL WAR FINANCE COmMOTK tfii UM MriMlU
