Let's Sacrifice Together: Buy Bonds! As Hill Field nears the end of its current war bond drive, participated in by both civilian war workers and soldiers, it is not amiss to point out that in this one respect, all can sacrifice and share the burden alike. In supporting the third war loan, the soldier's dollar is just as valuable as the civilian's. And usually it is just as hard to spare. This is the point made clear by the memorable . m . .

In one of the finest worded appeals of the war bond campaign, Mr. Hughes said: "Fellow Americans, despite the restrictions and sacrifices, these are thrilling days for the American people. We are thrilled by the successes of the war fronts; by the skill of our military leaders; by the stamina, fortitude and heroism of our fighting men in the air, on the land, and on the sea. from "Our heroes come from every walk of life from cities, villages farm, from factory, from offices and hamlets throughout our land north, south, east and west. Contrary to dismal predictions of past years, we have been breeding heroes. Young America once more has met the supreme test of valor and is vindicating and glorifying the American name. "We are thrilled by our achievements on the home front; by our amazing production and the countless helpful services of men and women. But we cannot afford to let our patriotic ardor evaporate in mere admiration and praise or in satisfaction with what has been done. "We must redouble our efforts as our armies, our air and naval forces, redouble theirs. We are now on the offensive on every front. We wish not only to win but to win speedily. We must provide a constant and increas-- . ing flow of the munitions, equipment, and supplies of all sorts that our fighting forces must have as they attack, as they invade, as they make the final push to complete success. "The cost is terrific. It inevitably increases as the intensity of the fighting increases. That cost must be met. It must be met by our dollars. No American whose heart is in our cause can permit himself to be at the expense of our brothers, our sons and grandsons, who are putting all they have at risk in our behalf. "We must save; we must invest. We must save and invest in war bonds. That is the best investment any American can make. It is the safest investment. It is an investment in the lives of our fighting men. II is an investment in the institutions we intend to preserve. It is an investment not only to speed our own essential war effort, but that of our intrepid allies. It is an investment in victory, and in the opportunities which peace will bring to a free people.
