WHAT OUR BOYS ARE DOING
We have seen them grow up here. 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.
