NEW LIBERTY LOAN SONG
A big campaign in connection with the new
Liberty Loan is now under way by J. H. Remick
& Co. with their new song, "What Are You
Going to Do to Help the Boys?" The song
is an ideal one to help the raising of the funds
and has so been recognized by a number of or-
ganizations interested. The publicity the song
will get through its use in the coming drive and
from the fact that it has a wonderful appeal in
its own right will without doubt create large
sales for this number.

"What Are You Going to Do to Help the Boys"
By Gus Kahn and Egbert Van Alstyne
This song has been adopted by several Liberty Loan committees of the
Third Liberty Loan Campaign. The committees have arranged to have
it sung and played in all Moving Picture Houses, Vaudeville Theatres
and Liberty Loan Meetings by all the Bands and Orchestras in the country.
The title is to be used as a slogan in stories, ads, cartoons, etc.
"What Are You Going to Do to Help the Boys"
We are asking you to kindly place your order for a sufficient quantity
to take care of window displays and to take advantage of the wonderful
publicity given this truly patriotic song, and be an active part in
this great drive.
