UNCONDITIONAL
SURRENDER CLUB
Strengthening Its Forces to Help
America Avoid After-the-
War Dangers.

The Unconditional Surrender Club
has membership in excess OF one million
American patriots. This large and in
tsuential organization has been brought
together during the past three months,
and while its object in a military sense,
has been accomplished, 1t is the purpose
of the national board to give attention
now to plans for the great reconstruction
to come hereafter. Realizing that the
common enemy, under the reaction
following war times, will seek TO dis
rupt he nation, the club proposes. through
It's network of unit ORGANIZATIONS. to
keep its members alert 10 the perils and
pitfalls in which these enemies will
cndeavor to mislead the nation, thus
nuliiying tic effect of Military victory
AMI ,ln1crmining the countrv's morale.
la 4 recent announcement Of the
national officers of the club, they make
this forcpful statement:
Never in the nations history has
there been greater need for a powerful
organization OF patriotic Americans
tn dcd together without regard to color
creed or politics. to hold our hundred
million people intact to meet any and
every evcntuality and withstand any
and every subtle assault The I'm
conditional Surrender Club hopes 10
iuihit that mission, since 1t Is the only
organization that is fundamentally con-
stitutcd 10 undertake ii, and the Tn
conditional Surrender Club dares TO
obligatc itself to the task
Tho organization of a club in Will
mington has been somewhat interrupted
bv the election, and the excitement
following the unconditional surrender
of Germany and her allies, but has 50
far progressed, rs to constitute one Of
the definite units in the country. New
members will be added every day, and
the club button will be worn ny many
persons.
These buttons can he obtained at
this office, at f. ). Il. Butler and Sons.
431 Market street, and at Jones cigar
store, Sixth and Market streets. The
only expense incident to the member
ship is 5 cents paid for the button.

which can be cut from the paper and
