TO MOVE UP THE DATE THAT
JOHNNY COMES MARCHING HOME?
Have you a boy in this war—a son or a sweetheart, a
husband or a nephew or a grandchild or a friend?
Is your heart with a sailor on the broad, high seas—
a soldier stationed somewhere abroad—a pilot, a tail
gunner, a bombardier?
Then surely you want to do all you can to shorten the
war, to help bring our boy’s familiar footsteps back to
your front stoop again!
And the best way—the simplest, surest way you can

Penney’s during July will buy a Bond, or several Bonds,
or at least War Savings Stamps. You save money when
you shop at Penney’s. Put every cent you save into U. S.
