EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Home Guard - Organization of Government Clerks, D.C. 1917" by Harris & Ewing, captures a significant moment in American history. The image shows a large crowd of civil servants, mostly men, gathered together in a room, likely for a meeting or rally. Among them, President Woodrow Wilson stands at the back, turned towards the audience with his hands folded behind his back. The Home Guard, also known as the Civilian Conservation Corps or the Organization of Government Clerks, was a group of civilians who volunteered to help with local defense and other non-combatant duties during World War I. This photograph provides a glimpse into the patriotic spirit of the era, as ordinary citizens, including government employees, came together to support their country during a time of crisis. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned Washington D.C. photographic studio, and is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress. The image is a poignant reminder of the important role that civil servants and ordinary citizens played in supporting their country during times of war.
