es FT Pee t Fit SEATTLE—You’'re slacking! You're lying down! You went at the Third Liberty Loan with a rush—and then quit. You thought you had done your share. As a matter of fact, you had just begun. Seattle’s snowball got so big—and then slowed down on the long push up the hill to the United States Treasury. You thought the other fellow was going to give it all the shove it needed. You thought you could give it a little pat—and that would be your share, It isn’t your share—not by a long shot! It’s up to you to do a lot more—and do it quick. * ” * * * * * * * + The money you keep in your pockets isn’t going to help win this war. It isn’t going to drive the Hun back from his desperate, smashing lunge into the fair fields and beautiful cities of France. That money in your pocket isn’t going to save speed Up, SEATTLE!

Use the measure — 5% of your wealth; add WASHINGTON’S SHIELD OF HONOR Presented to Each Citizen of Washington Who During the Honor Period (April 6th to 13th, 1918) Subscribes Full Quota of Third Liberty Loan Bonds what amount you figure you can save during the first six months of this year—then put in $50 or $100 for the personal economies you can make in the same period. * ¢ © € & e Ke kK OK The rest of the state is responding nobly to the call of the Third Loan, and to the inspiring Honor Shield bequeathed to us by the Father of our State and Nation. County after county has already reported “Full Quota’ —and will go far higher. Seattle’s shipyard and industrial workers— labor organizations—are making a wonderful showing. They are leading Seattle taday. oo * + * * * * * * * The slow spot is Seattle’s business heart. Its pulsations are flagging alarmingly. Bring the Pulmotor QUICK! When Honor Week ends tomorrow night Seattle must have its Quota at the doors of the Treas- ury. There must be MORE SUBSCRIPTIONS and BIGGER SUBSCRIPTIONS!
