Excerpt from The American Legion Weekly, Vol. 6: August 19, 1924
The man who carries a gun in a rough community knows that - the best way to avoid having to use it is to smile, and that it is well, at the same time, to keep it loaded and to let the fellow with his hat brim drawn down over a scowl know that it is. When you do need that gun how you do need it - ou what short notice! When you use it you're past the smiling stage.
General Pershing did not smile much at the Germans in France. He was past the smiling stage with the declaration of. War. He will be smiling on Defense Day, September 12th.
