It means to destroy our form of free gov­ ernment which has been the hope of liberty-loving people of all nations. W e are at war with the Central Powers of Europe to prevent small nations from being dispossessed of their lands, their property, and their self-governing powers. But we are at war for a much more weighty reason than tHht, great as that is. We are at war to preserve our national exis­ tence, to keep self-government alive, to protect our families, our homes, and our industries. If we win this war, we win it for ourselves as well as for all those na­ tions now so sorely pressed. It we lose .this war, we let the whole world slip hack into the feudalism of the middle ages. To the prosecution of this right- eons war we have dedicated our for­ tunes, our lives, and our sacred honor. To the last man, and to the last dol­ lar, we are pledged to our Allies. We have been at war nearly a year. Our own imperative needs and the necessary aid to our Allies has begun to draw upon our resources. The strain upon our communities is alter­ ing our lives and habits. W e are adapting ourselves to greater econ­ omies and we are speeding up our productivity. But we are not afraid. The Third Liberty Loan will soon be offered to the people of the United States. Each citizen here assembled is invited to consider the seriousness of the grim business in which we are engaged and, jealous as we know him to be of his rights as a self-governing freeman, is earnestly urged to do all in his power to have the Loan sub­ scribed in full promptly upon its an­ nouncement. W ell may you now, in town meeting assembled, copy the act of the first town meeting held in New England, at Plymouth, November 11, 1620, and in the presence of God and one an­ other, covenant and combine yoursel­ ves together for your better ordering and preservation, by agreeing that the portion of the Third Liberty Loan allotted to your town shall be instant­ ly oversubscribed.

Why It Costs Less to Hav

These Tires On a r

Because of their supreme mileage-giving qualities.

For United Stctee Tires are the standards of low mileage cost.

That is why their sales continue to forge ahead year by year, month by month. That is why users o f United States Tires last year are still users of United States Tires this year. That is why, sooner or later, you, too, will be a user of United States Tires. Ask the nearest United States Tire dealer which one of the fire is suited to your needs of price and use. These Franklins von could call enclosed cars, for they weigh not as much as the average touring car —only dun lbs.: between 1500 and 2000 pounds lighter United States Tires than other fine enclosed ears.
