To the Democratic Voters Of the
District:

District:
wish to urge upon every Demo-
crat in this district the supreme i'm.
portance Of full turn out Of Demo
cratic strength on next Tuesday, at
the General Election. The indlca-
tons of the country point to Il very
close contest for control Of the next
house, with the chances apparently Iii
fayer of Democratic success. The
probability, however, is that the mar
gin of difference IL favor Of either
party will be extremely small, and 1t
is in this that the danger arises t"
those of us, the nominees CT the party
from this State, who will have con-
tests before the next house. II the
the Republicans shall control the next
House by small majority, any pre-
text will be seized upon by them to
unseat democrats wherever possible.
One such preteXt, and it is matter
which has given US the greatest con-
Germ in past contests, is the smallEess
Of the vote by which we are Sent to
Congress. It is almost impossible to
explain the smallness Of our vote in
the General Election and is always
source Of annoyance and danger to Us
and would be especially 80 If the Re-
pubIicans should control the next
House by na,e majority. It, there
fore. becomes the duty Of every Dem
ocrat in the district to vote in the
coming election and to urge up;u his
neigh Dor to DO likewise. Be sure to
take your last years tax receipt and
your registration certificate along with
you because you cannot vote without

Sons of Veterans.

A NJ. Reininger, Commander OF
Knox Camp, so, Sons of Veterans, Illi-
nois Division. reports a lot of excellent
work done in Knox County. Commander
Reininger has been cooperating with
County Superintendent W. F. Boyes and
the teachers of Knox County to forward
the patriotic work of the Sons. He
states that each teacher has pledged
herself to teach the pledge to the Flag,
to salute the Flag and to teach what
the Flag signifies in each mornings ex-
ercises of the school. Commander Rein
niger has distributed $4,000 Flag
pledges to Sc schools in Knox County.
III. He found IS schools without Flags,
and has supplied the Flags to these
schools
The Flag salute of which Commander
Reininger speaks is printed on white
paper with a Flag in the corner, and
below it is the following pledge and a
little description of what the Flag
means:
Il pledge allegiance to my Flag and
to the Republic for which II stands.
One Nation indiyisible, with liberty and
justice for all. One Flag. one land. une
heart. one hand, one Nation, evermore.
All salute the Flag What the Flag sig
nifies: the red, the unstinted streams
of blood shed that the blessings of a
free Government might be our heritage.
The white speaks of that peace which
with honor may our country ever enjoy
The blue tells us of that true faith and
allegiance which our fathers held to
their country and to each other"
If every Son of a Veteran in the
country was as patriotically inclined as
Commander Reininger. just think what
q splendid patriotic organization the
Sons would soon have.
