July 4 is the day when we us a na
tion celebrate Independence. Though
the going, at times, lias been rough
we have persisted in upholding the
ideals of freedom and security. And
you can maintain individual Inde
pendence, the freedom from financial
worry, if you are investing regularly
in U. S. Savings Bonds. With half of
1949 already gone how much money
have you salted away? There is hirt
one way for you to celebrate future
independence—and that is by saving
your money today. In ten short years
you will receive $4 for every y* u
put into them.
