"Lend Us a Hand, Mate!"
We are deep-sea sailor folk. We are the men who sail and fight His Majesty's battle -ships. We are the men
who go down to the sea in merchant ships. We combat storm and wave—ice-floe, shipwreck and
subm�lrine, that the Empire may not receive its death blow on the High Seas. We do this for
little wage. We do it without a thought of our own safety. Nor can we provide for
loved ones if the hungry sea swallow us or the whining shell blast us
into the Beyond—and there is none else to ' look after them.
Will you

The Strong Right krm of ' ' don is the Unconquerable Sailor
of theBritish Na and Mercantile Marine
His history and achievements are foo glorious to need eulogy. Your sub-
scriptions are asked to assist the sick and wounded, also the dependents of the
mercantile sailor who receive no pensions or patriotic allowance.
As the life -blood to the body—so the value to the Empire of the
Mercantile Marine.
From Yokohama and Hong Kong, Bombay, Vancouver, Naples, Port Said,
Halifax and Archangel, these sailor men their ships are the allied linea of
communication; to destroy them is to cut the uvular vein of our war.
It's a curious thing in our history, recti ing through, every stage, that this
strange hreed of high-spirited, hard -handed, far-sighted, cautious, cunning, silent
British sailors have been a rock on which our enemies have been broken.
They smashed the Armada, they foiled the Dutch, they defeated Napoleon, they
defy" the slinking, murdering (;erman submarine to -day.
Last year $700,000 was collected and sent overseas for the British Sailors'
Relief Fund. This year the Navy League has been entrusted with the raising of
funds to provide for the dependents of seaman who have lost their lies. Their
wage is pitifully inadequate to their mighty task—entirely so when iitbome* to
caring for their pensionless dependents. \
The Daughters of the Empire Will Take Your Subscription
On December 8th, for the relief of Canadian and British sailors and their
dependents, for SailorHomes, Institutes and Hospitals in Canada, and through-
out the Empire. Ali who appreciate the magnificent work of the Navy and
the Mercantile Marine are asked to contribute so that these brave fellows and their
families may not become destitute when shipwreck or the perils of the seas wreak
loss upon them. If the Canvasser doesn't reach you—don't fail with YOUR gift.\
