WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
You would volunteer to do any work You* could;
You would give your last dollar to help the cause;
You would search for a way to be of some use;*
THEN WHAT CAN YOU DO?
Invest every dollar you can in the War Loan, whether it be little or
much.
Every dollar will be needed.
Two thirds of the 968,259 who bought bonds in June last, bought

There was a splendid attendance
at the general Red Cross meeting

Mr. Grigg always seems to inspire
his listeners with fresh hope and
courage. Mrs. Sturgis sang “The
White Cliffs of Dover”. At the
close of the meeting a social half-
hour was spent and it was spoken
of by many as the best general
meeting yet held.
Friday, Feb. 13th is packing day.

It will be noticed that the quotas of some municipalities have been
very heavily increased—in fact in some cases more than"doubled.- Effort
was made to have them lessened, but to no avail. If these amounts are
secured it will need the very,, maximum of effort on the part of both can
vassers and investors. But a maximum effort is needed to win this war.
Our money would be no good if we did not win. So let us all go to it
and 'do the very best we can!

five markers. Reg. Paul and Sid-
