LIBERTY DAY
America Will Remember During All the Days OF
the Future

America
the Future
On the sixth of April 1917, the United States
of America threw the weight of it's might into the
scale sof war against the enemies Of liberty and
humanity.
1t was on the sixth of April that congress de-
clared state of war existing and it was then that
the president proclaimed war against Germany
In the year that followed no nation on earth,
now or in all the times past, put forward greater
or more sustained effort to place it's full strength
upon the battIctields. Even as our young men
went forth to fight so did older men and our
women strive and serve TO the same patriotic
ends.
The first year Of war came and went.
On the Sixth Of April, 1918, this whole nation
celebrated the day as day Of days. TO the people
of the United States the Sixth Of April meant
much And from that day they took on larger
share of the burdens Of war This they carried
without complaint until the power Of the Hun
broke in defeat and the hordes OF autocracy re-
treated beyond the Rhine.
But November eleventh, the day Of world
peace, could not, and should not obterate the
Sixth of April from the minds and hearts Of Amer
leans!
4HlS year Lllc IolhlH VI I1pI COulco Ou ouiut'y
The noise and booming Of last years celebrations,
doubtless will give way to more quiet celebrating
and more thoughtful. Surely our preachers
will see in Liberty Day "a subject for sermon, talk
or prayer-prayer that liberty may never again
be so threatened as it was by the imperial autoc-
racy of Germany. . .
Let us hang out the family's Stars and Stripes,
that emblem Of liberty and freedom which We lis
played so universally over this land during the
war, and which our sons carried across No Man $
Land. Let US not forget that the Sixth of Aprit
is Liberty Day in our land a day we shall remen1-
ber as long as the love Of liberty cings to the
human heart. ~
Liberty Day rightly ranks side by side with
Peace Day. Had Liberty Day not come to our
American calendar our Peace Day would neve er
have arrived. Therefore, in these gladstone day s
Of peace let give thanks for the Sixth of April
