On nearing the close of our acti

battles. ,
Ti's true that the success of
this day is looked forward ttf as
resting upou the .shoulders of

a3 much as we feel this sense of
duty and expect to make this day
a success, you must remember .
that it is your day, in fact an
"all Americans' day.- So teta
all get together, we want some
