EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of communal sacrifice and patriotism during World War I in Attleboro, Massachusetts. The image showcases a large, imposing War Chest, a symbol of the community's collective commitment to the war effort. War Chests gained immense popularity in the United States and Canada during this time, with over three hundred cities establishing them by the summer of 1918. The typical method of donating to a War Chest involved pledging a portion of one's salary to the cause. The photograph, dated circa 1917, depicts a well-lit office space, with large windows allowing natural light to filter in. The War Chest, a physical embodiment of the community's support for the war, takes center stage. The chest is adorned with various insignia, including the stars and stripes of the American flag, and the motto "Pro Patria" - "For the Fatherland." The image exudes a sense of unity and determination, as the people of Attleboro came together to support their country during a time of great need. The War Chests served as a powerful reminder of the shared responsibility to contribute to the war effort and to support the troops. This photograph stands as a poignant testament to the spirit of sacrifice and unity that defined the American experience during World War I.
