Default War Bonds?
Just a guess, though a quick google search suggests WW1 bonds didn't begin until 1917...

"Buy To-Day at (army/every) ????"

Edit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/303343422534
"buy to-day at any bank (buy liberty bonds)"

Edit 2: Try 4/6/1918 - Exhibition game in NO, LA @ Pelican Stadium

Sears did other Red Sox photos, at least as early as 1912.

Thanks. Seems to match up with the Buy Liberty Bonds parade held that day but the game was rained out so not sure about the ceremony on the field.

Maybe the rain started after the ceremony. I am pretty sure that is Harry Frazee on the left shaking hands but I have not figured out the other man's identity yet.

If anyone knows who it is, please let me know.

No, I wondered the same thing. Looks ridiculous at best.
