As boys we have known them from the first grade. And their parents are a part of our own community. They are our part of state and nation, and we are intensely in terested in every son who is now called to the service of his country. Day by day they receive the final order to the ranks, and now the new selective draft papers are being signed by the older boys. As grad ually our home ranks are depleted our personal in terest and sympathy is being extended around the world. As our boys spread far away to east and west we acquire a more patriotic and profound in terest in the welfare of our armed forces on sea, in the air, and on land. But this is war. We can buy bonds. We can pay increased taxes. We can deny ourselves of many things that belong to our American way of life, and take all these with complacency and endurance, but as our boys go to the front, we too, take up arms, to fight to the finish that this may not happen again. We realize more fully that these boys of ours are called to fight for our democracy, and for the demo cratic principles of the whole world. Modern civil ization is at stake, and the flag they and we rally to is flying on ramparts around the globe, and our trumpets will never call retreat. We have mustered armies and national courage on many battlefields in our national history, and have built a nation of high ideals. This nation, before God, is called to defend those ideals not only in our own land, but among those who have caught the spirit of freedom from us. We cannot do otherwise. We are the light of Liberty which shines in no other land so brilliantly, and when our boys come marching home its radi ance will encircle all continents and all seas.
