His equipment is immeasurably better than any those first Yankees could have dreamed of. His chances of survival are equally improved. But, like them, he is doing a grim, hard job for the defense of his country. Defense is your job, too. It is your job to maintain and support America’s economic strength as this soldier is supporting her military strength. It’s an easy job...and one of the best ways to do it is by buying United States Defense Bonds regularly. For with bonds and other forms of savings you are making your self and your country stable and strong. And America must be kept strong—economically as well as militarily. For we must always remember... in this cold-warring world, peace is only for the strong! The U. S. Defense Bonds you buy give you personal financial independence Don’t forget that bonds are now a better buy than ever. Because now every Series E Bond you own can automati cally go on earning interest every year for 20 years from date of purchase instead of 10 as before! This means that the bond you bought for $18.75 can return you not just $25-but as much as $33.33! A $37.50 bond pays $66.66. And so on. For your security, and your country’s too, buy U. S.
