He turned again, circled the ferry, and watched the officer on the deck waving him frantically away. The student apparently tits cided the offieer was too excited and should cool off a bit. He cir- cled again after taking a very swig turn, and, as he passed just to e side of the officer, saluted respectfully.

To finish the job Victoriously, with minimum casualties, is a gigantic task in arms and supplies that must not fail in the crucial months to come. It's a task that increases your share from doing just as much as you can to doing more than you ever thought you possibly could. It's a patriotic and humanitarian duty that calls upon you and everyone at home to lend until it hurts . . . to end the war soon, to stop bloodshed, to save lives. Start now to get ready for the coming Victory Loan. Plan to concentrate your dollars on an early Victory . . . your bank savings, the money previously deducted for "compulsory savings" and all you can out of your pay. _ Pitch in, this time, enlist every dollar you can muster in the Victory parade. and urge your friends too, to help shorten the war buy more than before!
