It's cinch. They say so themselves. I
Many Of them travel with lines that

Remember. the men who call on YOU D

as they have given their money, and
it's UP 10 you TO see that that time is 3

Hun Is Finding Out. n
Rev. Fl. Upton's talk was patriotic
TO a degree His resonant voice car
ried 10 the opposite sides Of the
streets that surround Cleveland
Square, so that his audience was far
larger than the small crowd who
were gathered in the seats before ]
him. n
The Stars and Stripes have never
yet trailed in the dust Of defeat.
said the priest, "and they never shall.
though it takes the last drop OF blood
and the last dollar in America TO pre-
vent it. The boys over there are the
best fighters In the world They /
don't know what fear means. and ]
they haven't learned the meaning of
hesitation The American soldier is
a natural born fighter. and the Hun
is finding il out right now.
Look Out For Spies.
There are two enemies which we
have TO encounter in this war. the !
enemy which our lads are han

No Time for QuarreIs.
This Is no time for the settlement :

Put the fire out first. and then fight

definitely settled the question OF
