Safety Commission, consisting of
Governor Burnquist, Col c. H. March
and Attorney General L. A. Smith, left

The word this great leader has Civ.
en- us we should let sink into oul
souls and engrave upon our hearts
Listen to it again:
We shall fight for the things
we have always carried nearest
our hearts-for democracy, for
the right of those who submit to
authority to have a voice in their
governments, for the rights and
liberties of small nations, for
universal dominion of right by
such a concert of free peoples as
shall bring peace and safety to
all nations, and make the world
itself at last free. To such task
we can dedicate our lives and our
fortunes, everything that we are
and everything that we have,
with the pride of those who know
that the day has come when
America is privileged to spend
her blood and her might for the
principles that gave her birth ana
the peace which she has treas
ured. GOD HELPING HER, SHE
CAN DO NO OTHER.
1t is right that men and women
should trust this man and stand be-
hind him.
But that is not enough. We must
be behind him with deeds as we'll as
with opinions. We must match his
courage and will with our own cour-
age and will.
His is the greatest task any lead
er of America ever faced. Greater
even, than Lincoln's. He needs our
trust and our support-an OF it.
But the task of the citizenship OF
American-of every individual lis al.
so the greatest the citizenship OF
America ever faced, and the respon-
sibility rests not upon the president
alone. but upon all of us-upon Each
of US. We must sacrifice and serve
to the full limit of need, shirklng
northing, reservi1lg nothing.
That, as we'll az trust and the sup
port Of opinion, the president and
the country need from all OF us and
each of us.
1t is not enough to say that the
president is right and that we are
with him. We must BE with him with
"everything that we are and every
thing that we have" The more of us
there are with him in thta sense, and
the more thoroughly and unreserved-
ly we are with him in that sense, the
shorter the war, the quicker the vic
tory and the smaller the suffering
and misery and loss.-Duluth Herald.

SHAGGY SAD-EYED
DOG is HONORED
Airdales Best of All Breeds as War
Messengers.

Chicago. June 5. - The Airdale
a shaggy ,sad-eyed dog that gained
popularity only in recent years. has
convinced officers OF the Central De
Partment Signal Corps, United
States Army, of its superiority over
AZ breeds as canine war messen-
ger.
While official authorization for
use OF the Airdale on the battle
fields OF Europe has not vet been
issued by the war department,
schools for intensive courses in
training have been established and
officers say that reports from the
various army camps show that the
dogs have made remarkable prog
rcSS.
"The Airdale surpas Sed all other
dogs in point of intelligence. and
although peaceful, is also most cour-
ageous," said one officer. TESTS
have established beyond doubt its
superiority over other dogs as a war
messenger. particularly those used
By the German army.
THE Airdale is a cross from a
bull terrier. otter hound and Ber-
kelley terrier. 1t is a result of years
OF careful breeding and its name. it
