HOW many times have you heard those words? How many times have you seen them in print? They're the kind of words that gain strength with every repetition—because you know the meaning behind them! You know that it takes money to fight a war: billions of dollars. And you know that that money has to come from each and every one of us—whether we sit behind a desk, stand on an assembly line, or stay at home. So when you see that urge over and over again—"Buy U.S. War Bonds"—you stop to think whether you're really buying all you can. Ten percent of your pay And you know that that money has to come from each and every one of us—whether we sit behind a desk, stand on an assembly line, or stay at home. So when you see that urge over and over again—"Buy U.S. War Bonds"—you stop to think whether you're really buying all you can. Ten percent of your pay is swell: but maybe there are some non-essentials which you just haven't gotten around to doing without: silly little expenditures that are nothing more than self-indulgences. You know—our boys fighting on land, on sea and in the air—they're not getting any pampering: they're fighting this war with bombs and guns and bayonets—and plenty of them won't come home—their lives are at stake. You're not asked to match that—but every fighting man, and Uncle Sam, asks you to buy more War Bonds! TAKE YOUR CHANGE in War Savings Stamps—or at least part of it. You'll never miss the small amounts, and you'll be surprised at how quickly you accumulate enough War Savings Stamps to buy another Bond!

To All Of Our CUSTOMERS ONDS FIRST Our Shopping at Our ate Food Market ONDS FIRST ur Shopping at Our te Food Market YOU’VE HEARD PEOPLE say: “I can’t afford to buy an extra War Bond.” Perhaps you’ve said it yourself … without realizing what a ridiculous thing it is to say to men who are dying. The very least that you can do is to buy an extra $100 war bond…above and beyond the Bonds you are now buying or had planned to buy. In fact, if you take stock of your sources, you will probably find that you can buy an extra 500…or $300…or even $500 worth of War Bonds. Sounds like more than you “can afford”? Well, young soldiers can’t afford to die, either….yet they do it when asked upon. So is it too much to ask of us that we invest more of our money in War Bonds…the best investment in the world today? Is that too much to ask? BACK THE ATTACK! NAHEIM MARKET
