This is the day on which our forefathers gathered
together to affix their signatures to this fundamental
document of democracy.
Today our democracy is meeting the biggest chal
lenge in its history. It needs the loyal support of
every citizen, if its honor and traditions—even its
very existence—are to be preserved.
Meet this challenge on this 150th Constitution
Day by scraping together every dollar you can—and
buy an extra $100 War Bond! That’s your job in the
Third War Loan drive.
