Sorry, we couldn't find anything matching "The title was first performed by the Ad Club Quartette at a patriotic rally in Portland, Oregon, on April 19, 1917, though the manuscript was not copyrighted until a month later and publication probably occurred no earlier than June 1917. From the lyrics one would infer that this was intended as a recruiting song, but there is no indication that it was used that way. This was the only printing, and no recordings or piano rolls have been found.".
