Description:

Children march in a parade in support of soldiers fighting in the World War I. Children carry farming tools and a banner that reads: "Food will win the war--don't waste it!." Another pushes a wheelbarrow of potatoes and cabbage that has signs supporting the purchase of Government bonds stapled to the side of it.
