Mr. sad ho gushier, of Mell;illo's WHY GOES THE CANADIAN- \PIITflIUiIC FUND REQUIRE 50 MUNI MONEY -1 __This question is often asked, by persons and by municipal councils, when the matter of liberal giving to the Fund is brought before them. They are entitled to the most cornplete answer, for the Fund is the people's. They created it, Now for the reasons. There are 149,230 of them. \ \\ The Fund asks for so much money because Canada has given her men so lavishly to the'Greet Cause. Between 300,000 and 400,000 have volunteered. If their families need help, this Fund provides it. In October 53,693 families did need it. These families comprised 149,230 persons, nearly all either mothers, wives or children. Is it any wonder that so Great a Need requires so Great a Fund/ and it is they who must maintain it. HOW GREAT IS THE NEED OF MONEY ? The slim expended in October, 1916, was 9891,814.00 The average payment to each family was. 16.29 The average payment to each person was 5.73 The cost of administration was 15,464.00 (In above averages. sums paid for broken periods not included.) Pay special attention to the figures concerning cost of administration --including expense of campaigns for raising money. It is the ambition of the managers of the Fund to keep the coat of raising and disbursing it below }his': of any voluntary fund ever created in Canada. Their aim is to hand to the soldiers' families as nearly as possible one hundred cents for every dollar subscribed. They/ succeed in handing 991 cents. The sum received in October as interest on moneys in banks was about $11,500. Take this from the cost of administration. The remainder is $4,000. And that, therefore, L all that had to be deducted from sums paid in. That is to say, of every $100 paid by generous givers, $99.44 reached the fasdlles. Is not that economy which should give confidence to every subscriber? Does the magnitude of the Fund, as well as its importance. be^in to impress you, Mr. Citisen-who- is-being-asked-to-subscribe-$100, or you, Gentlemen of the Municipal Council, who are being urged to vote $100,000 for 1917? Does the REQUEST look as large as it did now that you know something more of the NEED? Since the war began the people Of Canadahave aubgcrrbed to this Fund 5141,405,0N For 1917 they will be asked to give—and will give 12,500,000 Of this atm Ontario is being asked to guarantee—and will guarantee—at least. 6,000,000 This is one million more than in 1916. but every dollar will be required for Ontario's families. Not much chance for individuals or counties to eoonornise by cutting down their contribatioea, is there/ On the contrary, the giving must be on a scale more generous than ever. And why not? If we can't FIGHT, isn't it a Pri liege rather than an Obligation to PAY? 4 ONE WORD MORE : No lista should ignore his personal responsibility towards the families of than who are flightiest 1st dies„ simply bemuse his Municipal Council is taxing him slightly for the same object. lie these people far more. Perhaps he is Loo poor to pay more. If not. it is spr int& tiltsitre s sheeens to his local Patriotic Fiend Committee, or [mail it es THE CANADIAN PATRIOTIC FUND.
