President Wilson is the executive
head of your government, placed
there by you, to do and to see that
others do those things that make
for the welfare of all the people.
The representative in Congress
from your district and your sena-
tors are your representatives to
see that legislation for your benefit
is enacted and to see that legiSla-
ton inimical to your welfare is
avoided.
No one thing is so important to
remember right now as the fact
that this is a republican form of
government and that THE Gov
EMINENT ACQUIRES ITS
RIGHT TO GOVERN FROM
THE GOVERNED.
Now las at no other time in our
history, it is the clear duty of
every man and woman voter, every
boy and girl. to know what are the
facts that have led this nation to
it's present position.
There are dozens of vital
questions in every thinking
mans and woman's mind
to-day, questions that
should be asked, questions
that should be intelligently
answered.
Now is the time for you to get
out your books, to 60 to your
histories, to 60 to your libraries
and read up on the facts. At this
critical juncturc do you know
where to turn? Are you equipped
to get at the facts or are you de-
pendent on the newspapers? Or do
you have to build your judgment
on the "They say" stories of the
people you meet? Can you inform
yourself quickly, accurately?
