Our Home Guards
It has been suggested to the
writer that we go into detail more
concerning this organization.
first we take up qualifications.
Applicants are to be white, age
from 18 years to as old as they
Ret to be and especially do we
want the old veterans as honor
ary members as well as active,
to give us who are younger the
benefit of their experience and
advice in all matters, so the old
er men are anxiously wanted,
and every one knows that no one
is more patriotic and willing
than those who have seen actual
service.
This is one way to serve your
country while serving your own
self and should be responded to
by every ablebodied man in this
territory, there should be no
slackers, nor shirkers, but now
is the time for every man to
come to the aic} of his community
as well as his country.
Then if neccessary and desire
able there can Wjprn&ed a junior
guard from 17 years down to say
JO and let the boys have a part
ln the home protection.

OBLIGATION
“I do solemnly swear or affirm
on my honor that I will support
the constitution of the United
States, the State of Arkansas;
and that I will be obedient to
the civil laws and to those hav
ing authority over me, that I will
be subject to the discipline oi
this organization and to its call
upon me and always be ready tc
answer the call of duty for the
protection of my home and com
munity.”

would cover the case very thor
oughly and anything else thal
should arise could be acted upon
by the body and a solution found
for any occasion that might
arise.

Volunteer.
