Wartime poster tone urges public support for War Savings Stamps. Readers are urged to buy stamps, honor service members, and back government funding to sustain the war effort. The message stresses duty, patriotism, and collective sacrifice as citizens commit funds daily.
A long, dense wartime notice argues War Savings Stamps are essential to fund army costs for bread, clothing, and medical care. It cites Baker’s remarks, lists monthly expenditures, and warns civilians their pledges must be honored to support soldiers overseas and postwar demobilization. The piece blends government appeals with snippets about local servicemen and discipline ordinances.
Fragmentary text mentions cautions about health and vehicle upkeep including replacing a top and windscreen. It references Style Shop and Walanehe printing cards, plus Storage Tanks built by J. F. Braden, indicating a miscellaneous local notices context with names and firms.
The pastures are posted forbidding trespass with no haunting of other trespassers allowed therein. N.S. Murphy serves as foreman.
