On September 28th our government will again as every patriotic American
to subscribe to Liberty Bonds. All of us realize that a war of this magnitude re
quires immense sums of money and our Government expects us all to do our full
duty. The response of the people to the three previous loans was both spontan
eous and complete. So thoroughly did the masses respond to our country's call
that one can only conclude that each subscriber felt it a personal privilege to help.
We are again offered this privilege and as Polk county heretofore has been one of
the first counties of our State to fill her quota, there is little doubt that We will
again show our patriotism by quickly oversubscribing our quota of this issue of
bonds, no matter what it may be.
It is estimated that there are now owned by the people of Polk County about
One Hundred Thousand Dollars worth of bonds and, as we are not a rich county,
it follows naturally that there is a limit to our purchasing power.
For the purpose of helping to make this Fourth Liberty Loan a success in so
far as Polk county is concerned, we, the undersigned, will buy for cash all of the
first, second or third Liberty Bonds now in the hands of the people of Polk county
and will pay the full market price as shown by the sales day by day on the New
York Stock Exchange. This offer is made for the purpose of enabling present
holders of Liberty Bonds to make further subscriptions, as we realize that many of
them have all of their available funds invested, but would gladly subscribe to this
fourth loan if their money was available.
While we do not make a further subscription a condition of our purchase
of any bonds that may be offered, yet we are making this offer only for the pur
pose of HELPING THE LOAN and prefer NOT to buy any bonds from any per
son who only wants to get the cash for other purposes.
We leave the matter of further subscriptions to the judgment, patriotism and con
science of the seller.
- We have been liberal subscribers to all three previous issues of Liberty Bonds and it is
our purpose to make further subscriptions to the forthcoming Fourth Liberty Loan.
The market for different issues of Liberty Bonds vary according to their conditions.
The first issue, or 3 1-2 per cent bonds are now worth a good premium above their cost, the other
issues are worth less because of being- liable for surtaxes, but they are all the best security in the
world and we believe they will all be worth a premium after the cost of this war shall have been
overcome by the thrift and saving of the whole people'
We will be prepared any day after September 11th to buy and pay for your bonds. You
need not wait until the 23th5 "which isthe opening date for the Fourth Loan.
