THE OPEN LETTER
Sir: Seeing that this country
is about to take her stand for the
freedom of the world against the
German nation, and that this gov
eminent has already called upon
all men between the ages Of 81
and 81 to register for military
service. you, sir, must be well
aware that there are thousands of
these young men who are married

In many cases are striving to own
their own homes, which is a great
asset to any state or country,
and who no doubt will have to go
to fight our battles on land and
sea, as all cannot be exempted.
Sir, do you not think that the
time Is ripe for the government to
say officially to these men, that
their wives and families will be
amply provided for in their abb
sence, and that their homes will
be there for them II they are for
tunate enough to return?
That they, their wives and chill
dren will be protected from the
real estate sharks; that, sir, as
you we'll know, are just awaiting
for the mortgage to become de-
linquent, and so foreclose on Their
homes whilst they are fighting in
France for freedom and justice
Sir, feel that the men of this
state stand ready to answer theii
country's call. and I think they
are entitled to protection. 1t IL
not much to ask for when W.
know that these men stand fortl
to give their all (life) that THU
country may still live and flourish
