"Uncle Sam's Right Arm: A Patriotic Exercise" by Effa E. Preston is a theatrical work intended for performance, likely written during the early 20th century, specifically in the context of World War I. This book comprises a patriotic play that emphasizes themes of national pride, duty, and unity in the face of war. It is designed as a musical or entertainment piece aimed at stirring the spirit of patriotism among children and families during a time of national turmoil. The narrative of the book centers around Uncle Sam, depicted as a representation of America, who encourages children to contribute to the war effort. Through songs, characters, and various roles, such as soldiers, nurses, farmers, and aviators, it illustrates how everyone has a part to play in supporting the troops and promoting the ideals of democracy. The characters express their aspirations and responsibilities, stressing actions like buying war bonds, saving stamps, and aiding the Red Cross. Ultimately, the play seeks to inspire a sense of duty and collective work toward victory, reinforcing the message that every individual's effort is vital in maintaining the nation’s freedom and democracy.
