Our country, with its allied, is wa,t-
ing • great war for jostler, for the
protection of small nations in the en-
joyment of their rights, for continued
and growing freedom. and for the
maintenance of its pledged word of
honor. Much de.truction and drools -
tion are being caused. Lives nee be-
ing lost by the thousand. Canada'.
fleet contingent is now in the thick of
it. Souse will (all sick; many u.ay be
wounded ; bonze will pay the lest full
measure of devotion to their country
and it. reuse.
The Red Cruse Society exists to
succor the sick and wounded in wee.
It needs mote mosey to provide more
beds at hospitals in (creat Britain and
France; it needs more money to pay
wore Red Crows nurses : it need. mon
money, and more tbtnga made by wo-
men. to supply to clearing hospital*,
base bo apils:a and recovering hos-
pitals.
I appeal to fernier* to .end ti.. sums
from 11 to $50, during the first
week in May. Every 550 provides ones
additional hospital bed with the giver•
name Over it. By seeding me about
$10,l4)O you would serve your country
well, bring ctedit to yourselves, and
make .11 of us very proud of you. For
the sake of the wounded buys, make
the gilt aubetantial. It will be an in-
vestment towards the recovery of some
Canedisn soldier who stood in our stead
that one cause might be upheld.
