BUY LIBERTY BONDS.

Picture the immigrant. He has
landed at Ellis Island and is won
dering whether the bars will be let
down for him. He has staked his all
upon the move from the Old World
to the New. He has left behind him
king worship, rank worship, castle
worship.
Back there a man remains very
largely in the station in life In which
he was born. Back there he has to
serve in the army, whether it is war
time or peace time. Back there little
opportunity presented itself to him
and less to his children.
Suppose now Uncle Sam said to
him: "How much will you give to
be admitted to my country" Don't
you know that he would put up al.
most every cent he had on earth and
would be willing to pledge part
his earnings, no matter what sacri
flee it entailed?
Because, once within the gates, he
would be in the land Of opportuni
ties Nothing would be barred t
him that his energies and his talents
could attain.
Here there is no king and no rank
and no caste. Every man is wha!
he makes of himself He may be a
workman drawing a good union wage,
or shopkeeper, or a great merchant
He may become mayor of his city, or
congressman of his district, or COVER
nor of his state. Even the pre-
dency is open to his sons born in
this country. And be very sure of
it, the immigrant appreciates to the
full all these chances in life.
But do you appreciate them, you
who were born in this country and
who take all these blessings for
granted? Do you appreciate them,
you who were naturalized so long ago
that your perceptions of things have
become dulled?
If not, it is time to wake up. Al
that America is to us, all that it CAY
be to our children and to future gen
erations, is at stake.
German autocracy is still menace
to the world. German militarism is
still uncrushed. 1t is up to all O.
us either to enlist or invest. Those
Of us who can't serve in the army
should help" support the army ID
work and by money.
Buy Liberty Bonds.
Pay what you think it is worth to
be an American citizen.

"CYCLONE BILL"

The press agent Of Attorney Gen

confdes that during his first year in
college "Cyclone Bill made the rec
ord of "being out only five nights in

appreciated when it is known that
."Cyclone Bill" attended umbia,
where the Great White Way constant

Why these words? Why try to

In future when hard put for super
