LIBERTY DAY.

President Wilson has appointed Fri
day of this week as Liberty day
throughout the United States. On
the afternoon of that day people are
requested to assemble in their respec-
tive communities "and literally pledge
anew their financial support to sus-
tain the Nations cause"
Stores and banks and other business
houses all over. Robson were closed
Friday of last week till p. M, while
a drive was made to secure Liberty
bond subscriptions. In observing
Liberty day as appointed by the Pres
ident, it would be a fitting thing if
all business houses should close again
Friday of this week, closing this time
during the afternoon.
Stores and banks and lands and
money would not be worth anything
to any of US if Germany should win
this war. We are fighting for liberty
just as much as if the Huns had
handed in overwhelming force en- our
own shores. Every dollar that each
OF US can spare from our bare neces-
sites will help wi nthe war. Every
one who can buy Liberty bond or
a War Savings stamp is fighting just
that much to bring the boys who are
at the front back home and to win
freedom for the world from the dom
nation of an "intolerable thing" that
would crush our civilization and leave
the world in black night of despair.
Let's make Liberty day day long
to be remembered in Robson
