craft to his credit in the day s fighting, was hovering over the aircraft
carrier Lexington at dusk, awaiting the signal to land. His gas tanks were
nearly empty. Suddenly, over the horizon Jap planes were spotted. It was
feared the Japs might discover the Lexington and try a suicide attempt.
Baker's order to land never came. His landing lights might have given
the Lexington's pos/tion away. Without hesitation, Lieutenant Baker
turned his plane away from the big carrier and headed for the open sea,
luring the Japs after him. He disappeared into the night, never to be seen
again. The Lcx/ngto. was safe.

We, at home, also have a decision to make. We are asked
to buy extra War Bonds at once. Our boys at the front are

War Bonds are the best form of financial reserve ever
offered you. Your money helps finance the war. By post-
poning unnecessary spending you speed production of planes
and munitions to win the war. The gradual expenditure of
your reserve after the war will provide jobs for returning
soldiers and help stabilize the nation's finances in the post-
war adjustment period.
Ask yourself: Have I a single valid reason why I should
not buy extra War Bonds?
Then, like Paul Baker, make your decision and act!
