AlIERICAN BLOOD
VETS TRENCHES
Have YOU Proved Loyalty
By Buying Liberty Bonds
az JoHN LElsH TAlT

There are some tremendous lessons
to be learned from the present status
Of the world strife
One of the most momentous Of them
all is a lesson to America and Amer
lcans-a lesson to you and me-a
personal lesson which we shall do
well to accept in its fullest, personal
application. It is the lesson of IN.
DIYIDUAL INTEREST in this war.
The blood Of American soldiers is
wet upon the trenches, and the base
hospitals are ministering to Amert
can wounded. The shadow of the
Death Angel, made in Germany"
has fallen across your threshold and
mine. 1t is no longer a thing de
taehed and apart from us. We are
In it. The blood of our sacrifice
reeks upon the altar 1t is now per-
sonal affair
We-you and must back our boys
In the trenches. or forever cease to
claim rank and title as Americans.
The time has come when there are
out two classes in this country
Americans, who are for the war In
which our boys are pouring out their
blood, and traitors. who are either
against the war or Indifferent toward
it. And Indifference is now, if any
ding, more despicable than antago-
nism.
There is one thing, at least, that
most Of us can do to prove our aware
cess OF the situation and our loyalty
2 those who are fighting OUR battles
sver there; most Of us can subscribe.
n some degree, to the Third Liberty
Loan.
1t is totally beside the issue to
oint out that these bonds are a good
Investment The investment feature
IS not the thing in question. 1t may
nquire some sacrifice to convert pres
ut holdings into holding Of Liberty
Loan Bends. But as far as we can
manage it. you and |, If we accept the
5reat lesson OF the hour and take our
art IN the baptism Of American blood
hieh is for the cleansing of the ma.
tons and the rehabilitation Of the
world, we must come across sand

that it is given to US to do even so
little.

with which they make themselves at

most noteworthy. Perhaps due to the
