I came across this unusual slogan cancel. Does anyone have the complete slogan? I'm unsure of what it said.

I thought surely it was going to be "Don't Risk Your Possum"

Several variants of the savings bond slogans were used in the second half of the 1930s, giving way to BUY DEFENSE BONDS and then BUY WAR BONDS slogans. I have quite a few of these (as ancillary to my postal savings/war savings collection). It's a neat area - you can find these very cheaply just to hunt the different varieties, but you can also find them on a lot of unusual postal history of the area to amp up the challenge.
