Don’t Lose the War at Home! If you can’t fight—don’t gloom. Read VANITY FAIR No coal—no wheat—no meat; Zeppelins—sub- marines — spies; Garfield — Daniels — McAdoo! Ever since dinner, Lieut. Hasembad (of the Home Guard) and Mr. Sertin Blooruin (of anywhere be- hind the lines) have canvassed the situation, And there's no hope for the Allies. None whatever... unless somebody has the presence of mind to ring for a copy of Vanity Fair © Vanity Pair The most cheerful and stimulating of all the magazines. A season of it will keep you in touch with everything in the war and out of it that tends towards a cheerful viewpoint — the high lights of camp life, the humors of the trenches, the social, literary, dramatic and artistic skirmishes of the non-combatant. You won’t save anything for the Allies by declaring a Hopeless Day. Face the facts— face all of them. But be sure you have the right sort of face to do it with. That’s right — Smile! Vanity Fair can’t smuggle you out of the country. But it can take you out of yourself. It deals with unusual and interesting aspects of the war. news of everything amusing and entert. life, and reflects the elevations of war-time life, not its depressions. ‘The men at the front know the value of cheerfulness, of ety, of good humor. ‘They know that a man’s mind can't stay indefinitely in the trenches without leave. It needs a rest, a laugh, a holiday. You need a holiday. But McAdoo has the trains, and Daniels won't let you take a boat. What then? Why, then—Vanity Fair! Tt also_pu Vanity Fair cannot build ships. Or move freight. Or go over the top with an Enfield. But it can dispel gloom. It can keep cheerful the men who go and the men and women who stay. It can chronicle that side of the war which refuses to be dark—its unquenchabie humor, its unconscious heroism, its outstanding figures; and mirror —cheerfully —the swift current of wartime life at home. Not only should you have on your library table those publications which treat only the most serious ts of the war in the most serious way. But with them, you should also have Vanity Fair, which echoes the songs of the Sammies, the skirl of the pipers, and does its bit to maintain the cheero spirit at home.
