Augusta, Me, April IS, 1918.
Fellow Citizens
Like the Minute Men of Revolu
tionary DAYS, YOU are assembled at
the call OF your Committee on Public
Safety % plan for the common dc
fence. The same spirit of loyalty and
devotion t. Liberty inspires you to
make any sacrifice necessary for the
full support of our brave soldiers and
sailors una the early triumph Of our
cause Yon have little need of argu-
ment as to the urgent need OF mobll-
ling the entire resources OF the ma
tion to win the war. You are met to
consider only the best means of eff
feeling that mobilization in your own
community.
!
! counsel tCgether on this point. FOR
while our spirit must be the same as
| that which animated our torefatherS
I in the brave days of old, the simple
/ methods nf warfare which were ade-
unate in those times are no more Suf
/ ficient now than their f1intlock mus
kct against modern artillery.
| In modern warfare the whole ma
ton is engaged, not merely the actual
! combatant forces. We have under
taken to throw into the colossal
world battle the millions of men that
NAV be needed to tip the scale and
must make them effective on a field
$500 miles away from our center of
population. No nation even of those
engaged in this super-war of the
centuries las faced u task approach
ing this n magnitude.
This requires the systematic and
complete dedication Of the man

ton. and within the nation the COM
nlete organization of each neighbor-
hood AMI community. To take &C

find how YOU can best work together

the utmost this spring and summer
towards AZ. early and decisive vic
