.0UNTRY’S CALI.
FOR PATRIOTISM

a

Fellow Citizens of Norwalk:

Our Country has called for
men and money.

The alarm that will test our
citizenship has sounded.

Last week our young men
answered with the pledge of
their lives.

This week all of us are re.
quested to merely loan a small
part of our worldy goods to en-
able those who have so pledged
their lives to make a good fight
‘for us who stay at home.

.We are not asked to give any-
thing—only requested to invest
as we are able in the safest and
best security on the face of the

earth-the promise of the Unit—
ed States of America to repay,
According to our financial
ability our individual subscrip-
tion to the loan will measure our
individual patriotism and sense
of citizenship and will publish
to our fellow citizens and to all
the world what we'are—a high
type of mankind or the mean
money-grabbers‘ our foes de-
risiveiy picture us.

That is the alternative—-
none other!

Our citizenship and our man-
hood are to be weighed.

Shall we of Norwalk be
found wanting?

Hesitation to subscribe be-
cause of inconvenience—4). mere
thought of the rate of interest—
gives color to the. picture our
foes paint of us.

A sad comment on the sense
of duty to ourselves our loved
ones and our country.

Our banks without charge
give us every reasonable facility
to do our part. '
It remains‘for us to do it.
Taking a small bond when our
means enable and demand that
we take a larger and perhaps
many times larger bond, simply
smothers a conscious sense of
duty.

We must subscribe according
to our means.

Men and women without
means have subscribed,

Fellow Citizens—men and
women of .Norwalk, we all
know that no truer, more loyal
or better citizenship prevails
anywhere than in Norwalk, but
we‘ this week must and will
prove it by our subscription to
the Liberty Loan.
