The Eagle Needs Your Help
The American Eagle - the American nation
needs your help to defend our country - God's own country.
Suppose you did subscribe to the first Liberty Loan. Suppose you
subscribed to the second one as well. Don't consider your duty ended there. It
would be just like expecting to win the War by having our boys take part in one
or two battles.
You've got to keep on helping just as our boys have got to keep on fighting. They
are called upon constantly to risk their lives. Are you going to slack because you are called upon
more than once or twice to invest your money at liberal interest.
It take money to win the War money to build ships, buy munitions, food, clothing and a hundrtd
and one different things to back up our boys.
