The Soldier is actually fighting - you are only asked to lend your money at good interest on the soundest security.
If the Soldier enlists his all for the honor of Australia, cannot you in the same cause spare a share of what you have?
If the Soldier braves the rigours of war for his Country, cannot you be as faithful as he is?
It is up to you to do your bit by subscribing now to the LIBERTY LOAN.
THE closing date - November 2nd - is almost here.
Purely as a business proposition the fifth Commonwealth war loan is the most profitable gilt-edged investment you can make.
Go to any bank or post office for prospectus and form of application, which contain full application of procedure.
YOUR first payment need only be 1-tenth of the whole sum you intend to invest, whether £10 or £10000. The balance can be paid by
instalments over a period of 5 months from date of closing.
Interest - 4½ per cent per annum, free of both Federal and state Income Taxes.
Authorised by the Commonwealth treasurer.

The image of a coin used as a shield embodied the message that the money raised by war loans would help to defend the
nation. Other poster designers used similar images, including Mihály Biró (PST 5782), Alfred Offner (PST 4823) and Béla Moldován (PST
10577).
