Whv Americans Are Fighters

Of blood in American veins.
All Europe contributed thru the brief period Of our
history make what call the American. And If the
American fights well it because he knows what he is
fighting for and what he is not fighting for.
He knows he is not fighting to Cypress weak people
or to rob anybody of land anything else.
He knows he Is not fighting for money, because
some crazy kaiser orders him to fight.
He knows he is fighting for humanity, to
and children from the crushing oppression Of
autocracy.
He knows he is fighting for ideals-to make the world

And he gladly risks his life in this for hui

For the reason won't the British, the French
