Mr Foreman and Gentlemen: Of course in the minds of all of us and in the minds of all patriotic citizens in the great struggle now go ing on for democracy?what prog ress we are now making in the waj of man power?there are very fe^ of us that realize the seriousness of this struggle ana wnai 11 means u we lose and what it means if th< world will win. Thank God we shal win ,but it's going to require th< performance of duty and undertak ing of hardships we had not dreamed of. I am not a pessimist, but it wil! take very nearly every man of the American nation to make the worlc safe for democracy. When the ordei went out for ten heatless Monday.' there were those who howled anc kicked and criticised,but.gentlemen that was only a drop in the bucket of what we shall have to endure ir the next two or three years, for thi war is going to last that long. It i.? well for us to make up our minds tc sacrifice, and endure the hardships we must undergo, and not talk ol the high prices of things or what they will reach. " - ? -?* ?~ it is tne auty uj evciy man, ix ?? speaks of this war at aH, to realize its extent and the fact that it is t righteous war and so talk it. Anj man who criticises the righteousnes* of this war and claims it is unright eous is a traitor,because he is aidinj the enemy. If there ever was t righeous cause this is one, because it is in self-defense and in defense ol principles that our forefather! fought for over a hundred years ag< to establish a free democratic coun try. There are now seventeen king! in exile, which is apparently th< handwriting on the wall, and it oc curs that men should never be sub ject to other men to their detrimem and downfall. But in order to wii the glorious victory, not only foi America but for the entire world this nation must sacrifice. We must read our history anew - - - A 1 3 read of the three or lour great ie?u ers that turned the tide againsi Great Britain over 140 years ago Marion and Sumter?think of the hardships that they and other mer went through with fighting for youi own country?your own beloved State. Think of Washington and hi: men at Valley Forge. The fight ther and there was a struggle betweer autocracy and kings on the one hanc and a free people and manhood or the other. It has been 140 years 01 so ago,which seems a long time, but it was a day in the history of the world?in the history of peoples. Republican and demacratic forms of government are still on trial. It has been 140 years ago since the first great step was taken toward the liberation of the peoples of the world, and what is 140 years to thousands and thousands of years? I say, gentlemen, our minds must necessarily run,our work must necessarily turn, to the great struggle. The man who dares criticism against the righteousness of this cause is nearing the point where he is a traitor to hie country. The time will come,and is already here now, when people who have been nourished and fed and made wealthy in this beloved land oi liberty who are in favor of the enemy will be considered traitors and -1 U nf nf o oKnAfino SI1UUJU UC ^Ul IU 1IUUV VI n squad. The boys need the encouragement of the statesman to show them that this is a righteous war and they are fighting for a noble cause, and lead them to believe such, otherwise we can't expect to win them on the part of patriotism. t "The Whale That Swallowed Jonah" The following correct answer has been received to the riddle published in the County Record last week: Editor County Record: I have solved the riddle that was published in the Record last week.
