upon to hold back the crowds.
The gray skies cleared at about

weather bureau officials said there
would be no rain or snow today.

STAND BEHIND OUR
FIGHTING MEN

America today is filed with young
men Of the country who wear thsiI
country's uniform and who have offer
ed their lives to the service of their
country. Every city, every town, every
hamlet, every country community has
some Of its boys in the military uni
form Of their country. They are thu
very flower Of our young manhood.
These are the men who are to 60 to
the battle front. How effective they
will be there, how safe they will be
there depends on the support that their
country gives them. The slower the
United States is TO exert its full powci
and put an end to the carnage in
Europe the more Of those American,
who are now in France and those who
soon are to join them will suffer death
and the greater number of American
homes will be made desolate.
II is not to be believed that some
national eatastrope, some calamity that
will be shameful to us if il comes from
lack Of preparation or from our failure
TO stand behind our soldiers, must occur
to awaken our people TO their duty.
The soldiers of the United States are
standing by their country with a
steady courage and devotion TO duty
that should inspire the Nation with
pride and patriotism and loyalty. Some
Of them now are facing death for their
people, are participating in the great
battles Of Europe to make the world
safe for Democracy, to insure our own
safety and to vindicate our honor. We
who remain here in peace and safety
must surely do our part.
The Liberty Loan Of 1917 was au.
thorized for the purpose Of, and its pro.
ceeds are being spent in arming, equip.
ping, supplying and caring for the sol
diers Of the United States and to assist
our Allies who are fighting by their
side in France. In supporting the Lib.
erty Loan the people Of America are
supporting our soldiers, are standing
behind the men behind the guns. We
should support our soldiers with fil Of
our means, all Of our resources, all o.
the combined hight and power of the
great nation that we are.
