John G. Oglesby, commissioner of the State Council of Defense, in a personal letter, asks that Wilmette = form such an addition to those now being organized throughout the state. ' These organizations are made up of companies of 82 men. Wilmette should form several companies. These units are not asked or ex- pected to do patrol work, such as is now being done by the National Guard, those places being filled by additional state regiments. The work will be entirely volun- tary and will comprise a reserve mili- tia, not subject to call, but expected to serve in case of an emergency in the state, especially in local cases, such as riots, fires, floods or public disasters beyond the control of the regular official public protectors. it will be a recognized state organ- ization, entitled to uniform and arms. If called into active service, all equip- ment, arms, uniform, and all ex- penses will be paid by the state. In the present times there is great need for a drilled, competent, recog- | nized force of men to protect our | homes, property and women and children in case of unforeseen dis- aster. Our troops are gone, our men scattered and many dangers peculiar to the times likely to occur. This cannot be met by an untrained, hap- hazard lot of men running to the res- cue at the last moment, usually ready long after the damage is done. The state and nation recognize this | fact and are urging the men at home | to supply this need by organizing! these units. What is Wilmette going to do? Just what are you going to do?
