Every oHlten living In a democracy
like ours is charged with the solemn

righteously engaged. For any citizen
to decline to do his duty, or to manl-

ally equivalent to a treasonable act
It has been made the duty of the
Wrtate executive committee to furnish
the State Council of Defense the names
of those who may Justly be termed
slackers and such action will be taken
by that body as seems best for the In
