CERTAIN-TEED PRODUCTS CORPORATION General Roofing Mfg. Co., Gregg Varnish Co. Patriotic economy means the elimination of waste and extravagance. It means the conservation of our food products, our natural wealth, our health, our energies, our labor, our very lives. It means putting more efficiency in everything we do so that each unit of money, energy and in- telligence may accomplish the utmost. * Patriotic economy does not mean the lowering of America’s standard of living, which would make us less efficient physically and mentally, na- |3 tionally and individually, and would kill the spirit and the will to do L.

President Wilson sounds.the keynote in this sentence: “It is evi-|: dent to every thinking man that our industries, on the farm, in the ship-|; yards, in the mines, in the factories, must be made more prolific and more efficient.” Our industries can be made more prolific only if the people buy and use the merchandising produced by our industries. Manufacturing slack- ens when business slackens. Manufacturing grows in a prolific way when business grows. Any business can grow and remain healthful only when the people buy and keep money in circulation. - Ed - Business is going strong—in the east, the west, the north, the south. | The country is prosperous. Last month’s increase in business was very large. Banks may wait in their operations until the government bonds are assimilated. People may pause temporarily in their outfitting to ar- range to meet the new conditions. But the unloosing of billions of dol- lars will unloosen a flow of prosperity absolutely necessary to sustain the |, world’s burden. Governments set the pace in their expenditures. Individuals must not lag behind. Seven billions ot'dollars to pay|X is only $70 per capita in the United States. Yet $7,000,000,000 put into work at 6 per cent—a fair estimate of the producing power of money— will create $420,000,000 of new wealth. The income tax we pay will not be a tax on prosperity, but a spur to prosperity. Every dollar the individual pays out will come back to him with interest in the general prosperity of the people. Keep business going—for our country’s sake. War cannot be waged || and wen without the sinews of war. —— Buying here will Prove to your advantage 5% [ YO ) ’!”’t"" V.
