THREE SONS ON.
THE TUSCANIA.

Mrs. Louise Moore of 139 First ave
nue.. San Francisco knows the mean
Ing of war. In the front window OF
her home q service flag shows three
stars. Three of her sons answered the
call to colors.
And when the Tuscania was tcrpe
doed, with the loss of more than one
hundred American lives, her eldest
son, William Moore, made the great
sacrifice for his country. On the rocky
coast of Ireland he lies buried in the
grave which enfolds others of his com.
rades In arms.
me other two sons of Mrs. Moore
who were also on the Tuscania, are
listed among those saved. The joy
over their safety has been tempered
only by the grief which followed the
word of Williams passing.
Il told those boys / was sorry that
there was occasion to go to war;" said
Mrs. Moore, smiling through the an.
guish that was her portion in the days
following the Tuscania disaster. But
l told them also," she added with a
triumphant smile, that If our country
was worth living in and enjoying when
things were going along smoothly, it
was certainly worth fighting for when
1t was In trouble"
That Is the spirit of American
motherhood In these days Of trial and
sacrifice. Our country has not asked
much of its young people in the way
of sacrifice" said Mrs. Moore. Things
have been fairly easy for most of the
boys and girls Of this generation Now
it Is their time to show how they have
appreciated all that has been given to
them"
Mrs. Moore has two other sons, one
of draft age, and the other old enough
to enlist but not old enough to be
drafted.
Nov they're crazy to CO." said the
brave little mother whose service flag
already has one haloed star.
do you know the last thing the
three boys did before they left?" she
asked with motherly pride "They all
bought Liberty Bonds, and said they
would leave the rest of that work to
us. Now we know what we can do"
Private William Moore and his
brothers have left message for the
stay ayat-homes in America to heed
"The rest Of you buy Liberty Bonds
that can be your work"
Have you planned to buy your next
one, now that the Third Liberty Loan
is called for?
