Its title makes the appeal direct: men were fighting in France, and the viewer is asked whether they are doing their part at home. By 1918 the United States had been at war for more than a year, and federal agencies relied on posters like this to turn civilians into participants. Wheatless and meatless days, Liberty Loan bond drives, and victory gardens all asked ordinary people to give money, food, and effort. The question puts the responsibility on the reader rather than on the soldiers overseas, which is worth noticing when reading the image.
