America is made up of *100,000,000 units of individual men and women. It has been well said that God does not know America as America, ex- , cept as He knows you and me and! every individual who in the aggregate comprise America. You are America to the extent of ?Vftiir rosnnnsi juur mumuuvi^. v bility in this world crisis is exactly the same as that of America as a whole. America must put forth every ounce of its strength to save itself, hut America will fail to do this to the extent that any single individual fails to do his or her duty. Viewed from this angle, you are truly an American or are you merely a hangeron, shouting perhaps with the crowd, but doing no real effective service in this, the greatest crisis * > since man's creation? Qo deep down into your soul hefore you mafce answer to yourself, to your country and to your God to I these questions. * What am I personally doing to uphold th^ Government, to equip and anatnin nnr soldiers and to lighten their burden? What sacrifice am I making to match the sacrifice of the soldiers who gave up home and endure untold hardships and offer their lives to protect me? What am I doing to increase the output of the things needed for war to sustain the nation in its stupendous task? | v Am I seeking personal gain of higher wages, or shorter hours, or larger profits merely for my own individual selfish interest? Am I concentrating every ounce of my strength, every power of my being toward arousing the nation, toward quickening latent patriotism into a living flame, toward increasing food production, or lessening food consumption and waste, or toward the building of ships, the increased output of steel and iron and coal and chemicals and machinery, the expansion and at the same time v. the consedvation of transportation facilities by rail, water and highway? , Ik Am I adjusting my family expenses I by cutting out every unnecssary P thing that the money thus saved may be dedicated to the nation's use through Liberty Bonds, Red Cross, or Y. M. C. A. work or religious activities? Am I merely a casual looker-on, an unthinking beast, with no realization of my individual responsibility to God, or am I consecrating all that is in me, all my powers of mind and > body, to this great task, the most momentous to which mankind has ever been calle*d? Am I a shirker, a slacker, a physical, mental or a financial coward, or am I a man or woman into whom God has really breathed the breath of life in its largest and divinest sense??Manufacturers Record.
