At what sacrifice would a man hest
tate if his home were threatened with
absolute destruction and his wife and
children with slavery? 1t is hard to
imagine anything he would leave un-
done to prevent such calamity. He
certainly would not hesitate to sell a
horse or cow or an automobile or any
thing else of value he might have.
That is the situation facing every citi-
zen of this country today. Nothing less.
1t is either win the war and save our
homes or lose it and lose all free title to
our homes and consign our children to
slavery under the Prussian autocracy.
Think the whole situation over and ask
yourself candidly if there is any other
alternative? At present we are not
asked to do any ruinous thing to save
these dearest possessions that life holds
but we are asked to do all we can short
of that. Let us measure up to an in
telligent understanding of the situa ton;
to sense of responsibility worthy of
our glorious traditions. Dig deep and
subscribe to the Fourth Liberty Loan.
Go next Sunday and make your sub
scription without solicitation. Be a
son or daughter of "old
glory"
