The Great Duty.
------ o------
As we go about our daily tasks in
peace and safety men are dying every
minute on the battle field of Europe
to save civilizatilon. Our own gallant
soldiers are shedding their blood in
France and our soldiers engulfed in
the waters of the Atlantic as they go
in defense of Amerca's rights and
horor.
Upon our performance of the work
committed to depends the lives of
thousands of men and women, the
fate of many nations, the preserva­
tion of civilization and humanity it­
self, and the more efficient and
prompt we people of America are
in doing our part, the more quickly
will this war come to an end and the
greater the number of our soldiers
who will be saved from death and suf­
fering and the greater number of the
people of other nations released from
bondage and saved from death.
To work, to save, to economize, to
give financial support to the Govern­
ment is a duty of the nation and to
the world and is especially the duty to
our fighting men who on land and
sea are offering their lives for their
country and their countrymen.
A remarkable display of beauty in a photoplay that thrills with
love and intrigue, that abounds in rich settings and
exquisite scenes in Washington D.C.
