 The watchoword of the association is Home Defense" Every patriot ic citizen who cannot fight for his country lover there should be pre- pared to defend his own home and fireside And to do this he should have in his home shotgun and some buckshot loads.
 There are at present approxi mately 10,0O0.000 shotguns in the hands of Americans.
 These are distributed so that there are many shotgun owners in each city, town, village and community To know where these shotguns are and to know that each owner of a shotgun has the ammunition to pro the National Association of Shotgun owners.
 Even if man cannot join home defense unit. he may be asked tC lend his gun to responsible members of home guards who may be called upon to defend the homes and insti tutions of a community against mili tary or social enemy organizations mobs. etc.
 The shotgun owner who joins the association is asked to furnish hi: office and home addresses, together with his office and telephone mum bers He is asked to state on tht membership blank how many shot guns he owns and also to promise tt have in his possession a number o buckshot loads.
 As the organization grows chair man will be named for each State and it is expected that he will, 1T turn. appoint a captain for each com munity. Probably these units vii be fixed geographically according

Thou hast taught us how precious human life is, yet that at times it may be nee essary for some to suffer for the sake of others, and that a part of the world may well die for the rest of all mankind. Thy law is against all disorder, lawlessness, and disre- gard of the rights of others, in na- tions as well as individuals. Thou hast constituted the powers of the state for the punishment of evil doers, and for the praise of them that do we'll And we humbly be- seech Thee to grant such success
 0 our army and navy, and to those of our Allies, that all world anarchy | may be put down, the forces of jus | tice may triumph. and peace may reign in the earth foreVermore. For give all those who have been drawn nto war, willingly or unwillingly md grant them Thine eternal peace. l tnd to Thee shall be the honor and he praise world without end | Amen"
