riors from us, U. S. soldier lads, we're
in the war to set up good, where now
stands something bad. By. force Of
arms we shall convince your military
caste, your war barons who incite
war, their greed shall breathe it's last.
While you were forcing war on US we
exercised our rights, backed up by IN.
ternational law, not military might.
There Is no place for you In us, and
none for US In you, for nought but
truth can neighbor with The red,
white and the blue.
Thereu come a time, for the war
to cease; when that occurs, twill
bring the dawn, of everlasting peace.
Increasing peace will grow on earth,
until 1t stands as true, as the very
sun that shines upon, The red, white
and the blue.
Dear hOme-folks, don't forget US in
your prayers, day and night; and
brothers, those who stay at home,
please treat the home-folks right.
We're in the war, and when we war,
we do it like man, please do not
waste the slightest thing, be saving
as You can. With every dollar you can
spare, buy bonds from Uncle Sam;
there's no foreclosures can occur, his
bonds are not sham, you do your
part and we'll do ours, that's all we
all can do, and God will back the
truth that's in the red, white, and the
blue.
Therell come time, for the war to
cease, when that occurs twill bring

til it stands as true, as the very sun
that shines upon the red, white and

Young ladies who have sweethearts,
we will say word to you. If you've
a sweetheart in the war, to him you
should be- true, for chances are that
he'll return, when day has closed the
night, a modest wedding may take
place If everything's all right. Per-
haps he'll save some money that he
gets from Uncle Sam, come home and
join lodge or two and learn to ride
their rams. Do everything at home
you can to help your sweetheart thru
and don't forget all neighbors of the
red, white and the blue.
There1l come time for the war to
cease, when that occurs, twill ring
the dawn, of everlasting peace. In
creasing peace will grow on earth, un-
til it stands as true, as the very sun
