When I lived in the heavily Democrat New Orleans area, the Registrar periodically sent me a postcard that said, “We are purging our voter registration rolls of voters who may have died or moved away. If you do not receive this card, please contact this office immediately.”

During WWII, the Army would post signs stating that all illiterates should report to be trained in reading and writing.

There also this famous parody:

CHORUS: O suitably-attired-in-leather-boots
Head of a traveller, wherefore seeking whom
Whence by what way how purposed art thou come
To this well-nightingaled vicinity?
My object in inquiring is to know.
But if you happen to be deaf and dumb
And do not understand a word I say,
Then wave your hand, to signify as much.
