LINE OF DEFENSE has been will ing to DIE for it! The question that confronts us today, is will we train our sSECOND LINE OF DE- TENSE" this coming generation, to LIVE for it? It is we'll known fact that our boys and girls can never reach their best mentally and spirit ualIy unless they are KEPT FIT PHYSICALLY; hence, this system Of health education which must be begnn chiefly through the schools, but the largest results cannot be realized unless every CHURCH, OR GANIZATION, CLUB, and, in fact, every individual, feels personal ob- lgation and opportunity to keep up this fight against disease. Shall we give more careful and intelligent at tention to our cattle and agricultural products than to the boys and girls of our country? Let us begin right here in Newport to be true to this SECOND LINE OF DEFENSE by protecting it from all that menaces its physical well-being, it's moral health it's mental power, it's spiritual strength!
 0, glorious FIRST LINE OF DE- TENSE: our sailors in blue and our soldiers in khaki whom we have trusted with our priceless banner, the STARS AND THE STRIPES! Can't we answer this challenge of the pres ent crisis in the worlds of General Pershing as he stood at the grave of Lafayette in France and said, La fayette. we are here! We are here to to all we can to help you to KEEP it's red ablaze with sacrifice, to deep- en it's loyal blue, and to keep STAIN LESS the purity of it's white stars and bars?"
