LIBERTY DAY

Tomorrow is Liberty Day, second anniversary OF the day we n
tered the war for liberty, justice, humanity and world democracy.
Almost six months have passed since the conflict ended with VIC
tory for the armies of Liberty. But we of America have not forgotten
the memorable day we took up arms. Indeed, it is probable that, IN
future years, the day we went to war viii mean more to rs than the
day the armistice was signed.
You will remember that upon April g., 1917, when the President
proclaimed war upon Germany countless millions of American haga
waved through the length and breadth of the country, from homes
and places of business, from schools and churches, from flag stalls and
windows. Everywhere the Stars and Stripes greeted the patr1ouc
American eye.
Tomorrow is Liberty Day.
Let us commemorate the day, and all it means to us, by display
inc the Flag of Freedom, the Banner Of Liberty, the Stars and Stripes.
