CLE SAM'S ARMY
By tho operation of the selective
service act the young men of this
nation except those whej are not
physically qualified or exempt for
sufficient reason are drafted into
the military (service for Uncle Sam
in this war for democracy" says the
Bond Bulletin.
By the operation of tho same act
all men not physically fit for military
eervice as well as those above and
below the military age limit are se-
lected to remain at Lome and to
serve their country.
The Stay-at-Homes constitute a di-
vision of the army of the United
States upon which Uncle Sum must
depend to do a mighty big share in
the winning of tho war. The duties
devolving upon this tay-at-Home di-
vision of the army are just as im-
perative as are the duties devolving
upon the soldiers drafted by this gov-
ernment to fight the Huns to a victo-
rious end.
The particular tasks assigned to
this Stay-at-Home division of the
army are to supply food and clothing
for the soldiers to equip them with
guna and ammunition and to back
the government with their money
There is no escaping the draft by
any man. If you are not permitted
to go across and fight you are se-
lected to remain behind and help pro-
vide tho sinews of war.
FATHERS OF OUR SOLDIERS
Responding to the toast. "The Fath-
ers of Our Soldiers" John E. Hanni-
pan uttered the following sentiment
at a meeting of the Clover club:
"What can on a say when one's
only son in whom one's dreams and
hopes and life are bound no has
gono 'over there' to France to stay
perhaps a ; f ar perhaps three years
perhaps forever; but is over there to
see that at any cost that flag is
kept flying What can one say?
"One can siiy this what a million
ether fathers tonight are saying con-
sciously or unconsciously--that it to
tho one pride and glory of my life
that at leant if my own strength and
life arc of no value to my country in
her fighting line. 1 can give a son
;nd a son. too. who needed no word
from mo to give- himself.
"Kopf's and ambition:-.! Why I
never dreamed anything so sublime.

eon so great as that which he haB
received. He Is wearing tho uniform
oi an American soldier. He i? Inter-
posing his arm and breast between
his country and hi country's ene-
mies. Nay he Is wearing the livery

"Sure" said the clerk. "I"
"Didn't I tell you to get a report
on any and every man asking for
credit?"
"Why I did" retorted the clerk
who was an earnest young fellow".
"I did get a report. The agency said
he owed money to svery grocer in
