It is also Ihiuk iii(t home to many tlum -itinl.s tin realization of the fact tliitt tin, country is actually at war. It lias also developed the ama.ini; fact that a Rival porc-'ti'ani' of our own pcoplo do not yet real ize that we are involved in a st ruKle upon the outcome of wliic'i depends our immediate future ami our course in jfetK rations to come. In its linal analysis the outcome of this war will determine whether there shall be !ii(li iiiilal liberty in the world, or whether we shall he compelled to exist trid' r the domination of a Kaiser. Uurinn the present week a i.atioti-w ide dri-.e is on for mem berships in the Xationd lie I Cr .s. I 'at riot ic men and women by the tens of thousands are jfivine; their time, their elforls and the best of their ability, ;-lisoilcly free of cliaiye, as well as con-. tributiuK liberally of their own money, to this ureal worli of jrivin , relief to sulferin humanity. It would naturally be supposed that everyone would tie tflad to aid in t lis work - the jrre.ttesl organized elfoi- 'or hi'"ian "id Hie world h s ever known. Yet workers in this cause, rijflit on our own streets, make the astoiusiMnjf report tn.it about half of those approached on thi.s I ted Cross movement express then'selves as mil itilrnytiil. j Thi.s is a startling situation. Would they be interested if a; fire was so near that their own I ome was in imminent danger of beinif destroved? Or would the wait until their house itself was j ill flames before they became itili rislt il f Will they wait until our own boys come Ntroamiiijf back from the battlefields of Kurope during the comintr year, woundi d perhaps for life, before they become inlvrtxtvil !

We are at war wii'n ( lei to; I v primarily to a..sert and to de fend our rights, to make tiooo out claim that we are a t ree Nation, entitled to exercise rights ion); re onizt d by all Ihe nation-, of the world, to exercise these rights wi hoiit restraint or dictation I rum the Prussian ant'ii racy and milii irists, to have the kind of insti tutions we wish, and !o live the -iind of life we have determined to live. We are at war with ( lorn any because ( ieriuany made war on us, sank our ships, ami killed ir cit izens who were tf.eiitf about their proper business in places where they had a riht to be, trav el inir as they had a riuilt lot ravel, declares I )a id F. I lou.ston, Sec retary of Agriculture. We either had to fiftlil or to kiep our citi zens and ships from the eas around Kncland. I' ranee and Italy, or to have our ships sunk ami our n ople killed. We did not make I mis war. (lei many made war on America, and old yafter exorcising yreat patience and enduring nreious wronjrs did we formally declare his to be a fact. For oer two years Cermany had co-nmiiiod hostile acts against our sover eignty, destroying the properly and lics of our citizens, acts which if committed by any .sin.-ilb r power or powers nearer home would have led to a (pick demand from our people lor a belligerent response.
