THE TWICE-A-WEEK DEMOCRAT

J ''' ' \ ter j Worth Fighting For SHALL this little girl grow up in the sort of American home we know, healthy and happy? Shall she have the advantage o£ living and learning in a free land, under free institutions ? Shall such children develop into the Liberty-loving citizens that a free America may be proud of ? For over two hundred years Americans have fought valiantly, and died gallantly, to win for themselves and hand down to their posterity the blessings of liberty, justice, self-government and equal opportunity. This precious heritage, bought at so great a price, is now threatened. The question which today confronts America as a nation, and you as an individual, is whether or not a free America is worth fighting for Are American children in this and all future generations to receive unimpaired the legacy of freedom of which we are now the custodians, or shall their country be turned over bodily to«the brutal, rapacious, power-mad enemy which has forced us into this war? / This question cannot be answered by word of mouth, but by deeds alone.
