X. A. Hawley congratulated Beld-
ing for its splendid spirit of patriot
ism as shown by the large audience:
I'm this, the crisis of the nation.
and the greatest crisis since time be-
gan, no man is a true American who
will not do his bit toward winning
war the like of which no man has ever
seen. We must win this war. Lib
erty requires it, civilization requires
it, humanity requires it, and the re-
ligion of God requires it.
1T will require sacrifices on our
part. The great glory of the human
race is that it can rise superior to
sacrifice of treasure and life. Altru-
ism is all that separates men from
brutes. We have got to do little
we may have to do great deal be-
fore the world is rid Of those mon
sters in human form. Are we ready
and willing to make the sacrifice 7"
