Empey as saying in an address to tho
Business Mems club of Cincinnati:
Before the war some of you people
waved flags and shouted, Why don
you let US in it, Now we're in II. and
ii Is to you TO don the uniform and
fight. Being at war you've got to kill
the enemy with rifle bullet, stab him 10
death with bayonet or NOV him down
with machine gun. You can not stay
home and wish him dead. If you want
the Stars and Stripes on the battle
front OF Europe you have got 10 take
them there"
"A Welcome Offering"
Prohibition may be all right in
peace times" the speaker continued
but if you are ordered to capture a
German trench, when you know the
vast majority OF those who charge will
never return, the portion OF rum the
Sergeant serves you before you 60
over the top is the most welcome of
fering you ever received. And If a
certain American was in the British
trench at that time and had a gallon
Of grape juice offered TO him or slug
of whisky. you bet he would take the
