IL the war has no; touched O yet,
you may ask this question.
There are feelings that only moth
ers know, and only women under
stand. Think OF the mothers who
have given their eldest boy to their
country. How do they feel today?
How would you feel If you were in
their place They have parted with
the little fellow that came first. and
has always been a little ahead of
the others In their love. because his
was the first little tiny human form
that lay against their breast: his
were he first little hands that
tugged al their hair. This other
mother--the mother who has sent
he boy TO fight for YOUR pretec-
ton. feels just the same way that
you would about your boy.
She wants that boy back. Won't
you help her bring him back?
There are thousands OF American
mothers feeling badly today. Mil.
lions of French and English mothers,
longing for their BOYS.
Husbands too. have gone by the
million to fight for their Country
and yours. for YOUR protection.
Don't you ~sympathize with these wo-
men? Your husband IL not perfect,
sometimes you get real mad with
him. but o don't want him killed
by German brutes. Think, then. how
these other wives feel-they want
their husbands back. Won't you
help them bring their men back?
Yes. OF course you would like 10
help them. but how can | help

HOW DOES ITz'

A fair question. always. Let -
think for a while how the Wa and
the Liberty Loan concerns the farmer.
We vent TO war with Germany
partly because the rulers OF that
country refused to let US send TO
Europe our ships laden with grain
and cotton. They sunk the ships and
cruelty murdered our sailors. Now
D we allowed them TO stop all
our shipping. where would YOU be?
None OF your goods would be sold

that you would get nothing like the
prices which you get today. II Is the

with their business-which is your
business.
Having entered the war In order
that we may have the right TO send
your goods TO n part OF the world.
what IL going 10 happen IL we lose
the war? Prices OF farm produce
will drop: the Germans will impose
taxation upon you which will cripple

Worse than that. IL the Germans get
over here. they will treat you In just
the same way as they rave the farm
ers OF Northern France and Belgium.
In these sections farm houses have
been shot 10 pieces. crops wasted
and burned: even fruit trees chopped
down. the cattle stolen. the men sent
into slavery to work for German
masters. their women illtrea,ed In
ways that canno be talked OF in

their hands chopped on N order that
they may never fight for their coun.
