E., '18 H' ,X sl .4.i9 Hats off to the Highlanders at the front! xlllii ' After three years of the sternesl, hardest, and most cold-blooded business of human hutchery in Europe, the United States entered the field. To save the Allies that were then iifxi threatened by defeat on land, seas and air, to end the most cataclysmic crisis that has ever by befallen human affairs, and to save the heleagured European civilization that was then seem- ,l fl V ingly doomed to its darkest night, without the least ambition to acquire an additional inch :Z of territory, and without greed to add one cent more to the national treasury, the United States entered the war. Qi' The seat of the struggle is far, but the cloud of war sadness, its pathos and tragedies, although faint and impalpable, were nevertheless immediately felt. And when the nation, 'iff' the greatest of all callers, called her loyal sons and daughters to duty, among those who an- swered and not the least, were Highlanders, loyal and true. There was no alternative, in l them the warm-hearted, red-blooded pulse beats of human brotherhood cried, 'Yes! ' Some 'Lu are now in the muddy trenches of Europe, facing the most fiery trials, enduring privations and hitter experiences in manifold forms, undergoing horrors the world has never known, raft, and making fearful and bloody sacrifices, hoping that, with the blood shed on the battlefields tg and tears at home, the world will he liberated from the cankeriug chain of imperialism, that an ultimate and lasting peace be brought about, that the rights of small nations be redeemed, and that Democracy, the world over, be vindicated. They have tossed aside private interests and have gone to court peril, in the steadfastness to principle, to die in defense of righteous- ness, honor and justice, to crush, once and forever, the mighty clutch of a villainous and licentious autocracy, and to cast off from the world the fetters of grim Kaiserism. It is one of the ironies of' fate--one of the mysterious designs of Providence-that this war, opened as if it would engulf the small nations and seal their doom for all time, is making for their emancipation and their perpetuityf' Highlanders at the front, you are now among the partners of Providence in the execution of such a design, you are now among those upon whose shoulders rests the promise of a brighter tomorrow, the hope of a greater humanity- emancipated, peaceful and secure. Highlanders at the front, this struggle will undoubtedly change the complexion of the political world, and when it is ended and ended aright, and new freedom shall be resplendent all over the world, may you be among those who will then have brought about the fn.llest de- velopment of the principle of free will, may you be among those who will then have forced every temporal ruler on this earth to the keeping and safeguarding of the sanctity of pledged words, and may you be among those heroes who will then have forced all the nations to the holy observance of the principle, that the moral laws which bind individuals are, in words as well as in deeds, equally binding upon nations, great or small. D Finally, over perilous seas and in the midst of feverish, bloody battlefields, through trials of spirit, fearful agonies and pain, savage hunger and despair, and the longing for far friends and slain comrades, by His will and power, and through His Divine Providence, may God grant that you will stand the test and retum home, not as warlike assassins, but as the victors who will then have helped give the triumphant blow for Uncle Sam's glorious democracy.
