WAR BONDS
* ★]
The Navy is making a plea to
civilians to turn in their binocular*
tor military use during the War. Th*
Army and Navy both need blnocu-l
lars for navigation and scouting'
purposes. Depending on tha power
of the lenses, they cost from $3O
to $BO each. '
Fi you have a set of 6 x 30 up to
7 x 50-power lonse binoculars loan
them to the Army or Navy. If not, i
your purchase of War Bonds and
Stamps will help buy this equip
ment for our fighting forces. At least
ten percent of your income in War
Bonds every payday will do the
job . . . and provide the “eyes”
through which a scouting pilot may
•put an enemy battleship.

Now Who Pays?
“I can’t understand why you let
your wife run up such big bills for
clothes. Why don’t you put a stop
to it?”
“Well, it’s easier to make ar
rangements with my creditors than
'■with my wife.”
ON THE HOOF
“How much do you think Brown's
worth?”
“Are you asking about his ef
ficiency or his financial condition?”

FIRE PREVENTION WEEK
This is FIRE PREVENTION WEEK. It should
be only a symbol. Every week must be Fire
Prevention Week. It doesn’t make any dif
ference who starts a fire. It can be an enemy
bomb or our own carelessness. The result is
the same. It helps the Axis.
Every day people ask —what can I do to help win the
war? Here is one way. Remove every fire hazard
around your home. Be careful with anything which
might start a fire. Why save to buy War Bonds and
then destroy them by throwing your own incendiary
bomb, in the form of a lighted match?
In the last ten years, lighted matches caused 1,238,275
fires and 175 million dollars in property damage.
Make every week “Fire Prevention Week.”

DID YOU KNOW?
That every man earns a fortune between his first and
last pay envelope?
If you earn $3O a week you will have earned $62,000
between the ages of 25 and 65.
Yet out of every 100 men reaching the age of 65 there
are fourteen who are financially independent, 38 de
pendent on charity, and 48 still forced to work for
a living.
That a small portion of your income set aside each
month during your earning years can put you in the
group that is independent at 65.
