Lee, Rec tor of St. Pauls Episcopal Church Buy them because they are Liber ty Bonds, and buy them to the limit of your power because they are what they are. Buy them because we want to get into this war, because we will not have it that our soldiers shall be the only Americans to fight. Buy them to keep hell from over flowing farther on this erath. The ,seas cannot check it. Let our sacri fices do it. Buy them and help this nation help the world. Buy them to crush the man with the soul and the eyes of Satan. Buy them to rescue Belgium. Buy them in the name of Poland and Armenia. Buy them for the sake of the world’s honor. Buy them as you remember the “Lusitania” and will that the seas shall be safe and free. Buy the mor own that your money is more than your soul or than the world’s or human anguish. Buy them if you can or your slack er money will disgrace you in your own eyes and in men’s and in God’s.
