STRONG FLOR LOYALTY
Continued from First Page. }

In various sections of the United
States men have been found who had
no respect for the flag of the United
States, and the government Tor
which Il stands These men when
found have been compelled by loyal
citizens to kiss the flag and pledge
allegiance to II. This does not make
them better citizens but probably
has the effect of making them re-
spect the flag. or at least not to at
tack Il openly or to ridicule 1t. In
this community It is said there is
man who has prevented his family
from entering certain building be-
cause the American flag, our flag, has
been draped in that building; and II
is also said that this same man has
been very prominent in processing
his loyalty and claims to be a good
and loyal citizen. What do you
think. reader?
There are those men who have
means and who have refused o aid
the government in It's financial af-
fairs. by loaning II money, except
under protest, and then only to a
slight degree. Some Of these men
have refused and objected to invest
ing moneys in government bonds
paying interest, because we should
not be in the war as they say. Prob
ably II is their love of money more
than country that prompts this, and
probably II Is because Of sympathy
for the Germans and German govern
ment whichever II Is, they arc not
the true and loyal citizens. II man
cannot loan the government aid after
Il has protected him and helped and
permitted him 10 make his money
he IL untrue To the best friend he
ever had. for the United States. with
its form OF government, the people
themselves being the government,
and he is one OF the people, has been
his best friend. The fact that there
has been more immigration to the
United States than to any other coun-
try, and that we have within our land
immigrants from all nations, shows
that we have government chosen
by many TO be the best government
on earth. WIN YOU say, reader, that
the man who refuses to help such a
government by loan, is true and
loyal citizen or do YOU think he

or IL he not. OF pro-German procliyi-
ties and lending aid TO our enemy?

should be In the war and after you
know that Germany has plotted and
intrigued against US and you. what
do you think should be done with
him? When you know a man who
refuses 10 lend the government finan-
cial assistance TO the full extent OF
his power, because we should not be

they used to enter. because the Amer
ioon flag has been draped in that
building. and this nf.er q majority
of the people has spoken In favor oi
tho war. is he fit man for your so
ciety and association? Do you con-
slider him a loyal citizen? When you
know a man who has any way dis
ccuraged or attempted to discourage
any man from enlisting in the army,
or who has attempted to claim or en-
courage another to claim an eNemp-
tion from draft in the army, do you
consider such person a true ana
loyal citizen doing his full duty by
his government When you Know oil
any person, man or woman VINO as
courages another IN purchase of
Liberty Bonds, the lending of money
TO the government TO carry on our
war. or in any way to hinder or de-
lay this government from pushing
the war to 4 quick and successful
conclusion, do you consider such
person such true and loyal citizen
as to be entitled TO your society"
friendship and association? There
is only one answer that evry true
and loyal citizen can give. whether
he lives here or elsewhere, and that
is, that any person who does not do
all he can and everything he can to
win this war Is not ne for society and
should be ostraoised and stunned as
is any enemy of man.
Can the man who said that the
United States should have broken re-
latlons with England when relations
we're severed with Germany be said
to be a good citizen and loyal to the
United states and its democratic
form Of government? Is he a be-
lever In the principle of majority
rule, or does he believe in the dictat-
orship OF an autocrat and an auto
cratic government? And II a man
was not loyal American on the day
rt tlations with Germany were broken,
can he be q loyal American the next
day? What think you? Can the
leopard change las spots? Does pro-
fcssion of loyalty alone make "a loyal
citizen or must he be loyal In heart ?
You will say that unless one Is loyal
at heart. his words coming from his
mouth are az spew And when one
such IL found, be sure he Is one 20
be- watched. The loyal citizen need
not proclaim his loyalty, for by his
works he Is known. In feet everyone
~ known by his works, and he need
not wear sign ON his sleeve nor
Gerry banner In his hand. Words
arc unnecessary and he need not
ruke loyalty from his mouth. Let
every loyal American make up his
mind that every dlsloyal American
must be Stunned as a snake In the
grass. and ostracized ~ one guilty
of aiding the enemy, for disloyalty
certainly lends aid to our enemy.
And let us all buckle down 10 II, and
with a strong viii, win this war, Let
us encourage laws that will protect
