FOUR REASONS WHY 

 SHREWD MEN ARE BUYING 

 VICTORY BONDS 1919 



1 . Security 



CHREWD men are buying Victory Bonds because Victory Bonds are backed by 

 Canada's guarantee that she will repay the full amount stated on the face of the 

 bond — the five-year bonds on November 1st, 1924; and the fifteen-year bonds on 

 November 1st, 1923. And she not only binds herself to pay the money back, but she 

 pledges all of her vast resources as security for her promise. 



2. Income 



CHREWD men are buying Victory Bonds because the interest return is unusually 

 good considering the absolute security. You will be paid 5^ per cent per year 

 on Victory Bonds — 2J/2 per cent more than you can get in the Savings Banks. Unlike 

 many other investments, you have absolutely no worry as to the prompt payment of 

 the interest. 



3. Saleahility 



CHREWD men are buying all the Victory Bonds they can pay for now and all they 

 will be able to pay for during the next ten months under the instalment plan, 

 because they know that if at any time they should need ready money they can sell 

 them. There will always be a ready market for Victory Bonds. 



4. Advancement in Price 



CHREWD men are buying Victory Bonds because they consider them to have an 

 excellent prospect of advancing in price. 



ALL of Canada's previous issues of Victory Bonds have advanced. You can sell 

 your Victory Bonds 1917 and 1918 even in this short time — one and two years — 

 and get more than par for them. What will Victory Bonds be worth when the world 

 finally gets back to a normal basis — when interest rates come down — when Canada 

 will be able to borrow again at 4 per cent, or even less? 



VI/^AR conditions have created the opportunity for you to buy the very best Govern- 

 ment securities on unusually attractive terms. Do not miss such a good invest- 

 ment opportunity, but buy to your limit.
