LOYALTY MEETING DRAWS
BIG CROWD LAST NIGHT
Harry Curran Wilbur Made Stirring Ap.
peal for Patriotism and Severely
Scored the Dis|oyaI.

Harry Curran Wilbur, Execu
tive Secretary for the American
Red Cross for North Dakota,
gave wonderful address at the
Loyalty Meeting at the Opera
.Es'ouse- .slast evening. \ good
sized audience was On hand to
hear him, and the attention
given the speaker was such that
at any time during Ills two and
one half hour talk a pin falling
to the floor would have been
heard over the whole hall except
when spontaneous applause came
as he drove home a telling point.
He discussed many Of the cal.
um uies being circulated against
the government and Red Gross
by pro-Germans, showed the eff.
ficiency of both organizations,
and outlined to a certain extent
the work that is before them.
He also dwelt at length on the
Liberty Loan and emphasized
the necessity for every person,
who is financially able, TO sub.
scribe. The alternative event.
ually being the conscription of
wealth that cannot be borro we'd.
The question came to our
mind, is Mr.. Wilbur an orator of
unusual ability of whom we were
in ignorance or was it the sub
ject matter of his address that
held the crowd spell.bound for
over two hours, or was it both?
Mr.. Wilbur is doing a wonder
full work in his tour of the state
in suppressing disloyalty and
seditlon and blowing to flame
the spark of patriotism lodged
in the breast of every true citl-
zen of this United States, the
true home of democracy.
He gave an address at Finley

WILL YOU DO YOUR Bit?
To Friends of the Regiment:

10 FRIENDS OF the Reglment:
the 352nd Infantry, National
Army, is made up entirely of
men called to the colors from
northern Minnesota and eastern
North Dakota; more specifically
from the following counties:
Cavalier, Pembina, Walsh, Mel
son, Grand Forks, Griggs,
Steele, Trail, Barnes, Cas~, Ran.
som. Richland, Sarg gent, Dickey,
Mcintosh.
1t is apparent therefore that
no other unit will so truly repre-
sent that section in the present
world war as will this Regiment,
uniformly chosen from the pop
ulation Of that area. Although
many other men from there are
serving their country, they are
scattered throughout org z,
tions of the regular Army, Ma.
tional Guard, Marine Corps and
Navy In local.zing the regi.
ments of the National Army, the
government has made it possi
bic for friends to be together
and has given each section it's
representative. We are yours.
For that reason we feel at lib
erty to ask your assistance IN
one of the difficulties Of organic

past, will not arise again, and
the request is made with a full
appreciation of the many calls

needs for his welfare, it does not

things as magazines. papers

which give the men clean manly
