She made it herself, as a 4-H Club project. I was mighty proud, and told her so.” " 'Do you know what this represents?’ she asked with a twinkle in her eye. ’lt represents $18175 I didn’t have to pay out of my egg money, and therefore it means another War Bond toward going to school.’ ” "She taught me a lesson, all right. Guess I’d been thinking too much about the things that can’t be done today, instead of all the things that can." i It’s our part in this fight to keep the home front going with as little spending as possible, so that most of the country's money.and productive strength can go into planes, ships and guns to win the war. For instance, you can invest in War Bonds the money you would normally be paying out for new machinery—machinery you can’t get today. Then you'll be ready for the day when new equipment will be on the market again. War Bonds thus serve a double purpose. Today rhey buy "fighting tools” for our boys. Tomorrow they will help to 'Te-tool” the farm.
