This bare fact merits no greater distinction than is due hundreds of thousands of others equally valiant, who have left behind them pleasing companionship loyal friends, loved ones and many comforts to fight the tyrants of op- pression.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-06-27

But one big thought impels our admiration and in spires pride in our former association. And sim liar thought should be with others everywhere who like we of The Age-Herald staff cannot follow our felow-workers into war. It is this: They have vol7 unteered to endure indefinitely severe and unknown hardships and if God sowills to make the supreme sacrifice, that we in America may continue in safety the full enjoyment of the liberty that is ours.
