The Daily Missoulian. [volume] (Missoula, Mont.) 1904-1961, 1917-09-09

1t has been a rich week in Missoula
social life in the way of unity and
power-with but few individual gath
erings to chronicle. Beginning Mon
day with the public expression made
by Missoula in parade and public adj
dress, for the loyal sacrifice of her
young men for the cause of democ-
racy and freedom, continued in large
gatherings of Missoula women to work
1ntently and efficiently upon comforts
for the world of warning men, the eli
max of united enthusiasm came Fri
day. The assemblage of more than
5000 citizens, men and women, to
greet James w. Gerard, former United
States ambassador to the imperial
court of Germany, and to hear of the
tremendous turmoil of nations from
the point of view of the statesman
who has been upon the scene of EN-
broilment, marks finely the unity of
this commonwealth.
The pretty handwork and home en-
tertainments given by some of the
boys and girls. who are not 10 years
old, have marked this week another
evidence of united patriotism in Mis-
soula.
