. ihe great fact that stands out
above all the rest is that this ia Peo
pie's War, a war for freedom- and
justice and self-government amongst
all the nations of the world, a war to
make the world safe for the peoples
who live upon it and have made it
their own, the German people them
selves included; and that with us
rests the choice to break through all
these hypocrisies and patent cheats
and masks of brute force and helo set
the world free, or else stand aside and
let it be dominated a long age through
by sheer weight of arms and the ar
bitrary choices of self-constituted
masters, by the nation which can
maintain the biggest armies and the
most irresistible armaments a pow
er to which the world has afforded no
parallel and in the face of which
political freedom must wither and
perish.
For us there is but one choice. We
have made it Woe be to the man or
group of men that seeks to stand in
our way in this day of high resolution,
wnen every principle we hold dearest
is to be vindicated and made secure
for the salvation of the nations. We
are ready to plead at the bar of his
tory, and our flag shall wear a new
luster. Once more we shall make
good with our Uvea and fortunes the
great faith to .which we were born.
and a new glory .shall shine In the
face of our people.

The United States Civil Service
Commission has received an expres
sion of the patriotism of practically
all the exhibitors of motion nictures
in the United States. The Govern
ment is in need of thousands of
typewriter operators and stenograph
ers of both sexes for war work in
Washington, and .through its. 8,000
local boards of examiners in that
many ciues, tne Cormnission . re
quested the owners and managers of
motion picture theaters to allow free
of charge an announcement on their
screens of this need of the Govern.
ment The refusals were so few. as
to he negligible.
Almost without exception Mi
movie" men were not 'only willing,
but were even eager to serve the
Government in the manner requested.
mis bearty resnonse from 2nnnn
business men representative of everv
part of tihe country has a striking
significance. It is intereetmo- to
