Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1918-02-20

our readers that the call to observe the
wheatless and meatless days is so thai
we can help to feed the allies and Oul
boys in the trenches. 1t makes nc
difference if you do happen to have sew
eral hundred pounds of wheat or meat
90 not eat it on the days specified. Is
1t not better for us to use something
else and send our surplus to those who
are so nobly waging this victorious fight
1or democracy than to eat those con
centrated foods that may mean the en-
tire outcome Of this frightful struggle
for lasting world peace? 1t is up to
us all. rich and poor. to help win this
war. We are offered the opportunity
to show what we are made of. 1t is up
to us to stand back Of the government
that has given us freedom in the pur-
suit Of happiness.
You slackers Of the dinner table.
better reconsider your intention to dis
regard the means Of safeguarding of the
! boys i'll the trenches and cut out that
wheat Oh Mondays and Wednesdays
and the meat on Tuesday and pork on
Saturday and one meatless and one
Wheatless meal each day. l say openly
! to you that it you are too small to see
now that this is your war and you
still persist in helping the kaiser win
| the war, then you are a national traitor
OF the deepest dye since your kind of
falSeneSS is unseen and does not get it's
just punishment in this world. It is
true that you can help the kaiser a
great deal by eating all the wheat you
can, but if you want to help the kaiser
then for heavens sake. remember that
he needs more men than he can get. so
better go over and give him a lift that
way. Don't try to be on both sides
You cannot do it. You are either for
democracy or against it. You are
either American or German. there is no
half Way business in this matter of
right and wrong. Now let us get on the
side that we most desire to he on and
then if our principles be right let us
show our hands to the world But
remember that it is only the coward
that would take the life Of all American
soldier three thousand miles from YOU
by refusing to Go what those i'll au-
thority of this government has asked
YOU not to relax your vigilance for an
to help. What are you going to do
about it?
TO YOU who are so greatly in the
majority and on the right side of the
world democracy. allow me to admonish
you not to relax your Vigilance for an
instant. If you see foods being eaten
when they should not be eaten. report
the Offenders so that they may the SooI-
er be singled out and dealt with as is
due them.
