The United States Government needs money to win the war, and there iiere is a letter received from one of   are only two ways in whicji it can be obtained.    One way is to take in taxes
half of your income, half of your neivrhbor's income, half of the  income of everybody in the Nation.    The other way is by the selling of Government Bonds, which, together with a slight proportion of war ta.xes, not enough to Oct.  lOth, J-'l'-   be a burden on you or others, will provide the necessary funds without hurt-

chosen the .N'avy in the present crisis, owing to the fact my inclinations tend that way. F'reeport is quite far re¬ moved from the paths usually trod¬ den by men of the fleet, so in order to reach them with some of that hospit¬ able spirit I decided to take a good supply of magazines with me when I returned to my ship. I do wish, good people, you could see how they were appreciated, it certainly made me feel good alijo. I told them of the recep¬ tion Freeport is givintf men of the colors and they promised to keep it in mind should they be in the vicinity.
Magazines and periodicals, either recent or back numbers, are in great demand throughout the fleet. The boys are hungry for wholesome read¬ ing matter and if you have any ac¬ cumulation about the house that is be¬ coming an eyesore, do your bit by sending thetn to any ship or ships in the fleet, addressing them care of l)ostmaster. New York.

Sincerely,
When you purchase a Liberty Bond you not only help your Government win the war, but you make it unnecessary to increase taxes, as they would have to be increased if no bonds were issue^.
