"The lino, (that is the Allied hat -

But does it really express the spir-

arras absolutely right. The holding of

girl in Canada. That the expres-
sion shows the spirit of thousands of
Canada's sons cannot be doubted for

lives that the line may hold, but are

'assumption that the preservation of
'our owls little lives was the inose

we not thinking a good deal of our

'proved against us every time we com-
plain about a restriction. It is prov-
ed by the amount of wheat we de, -

when we continue to indulge our-

Our selfishness was proved when

Canadade Appeal
Think of the inspirat'on to the Canadian soldiers
in this tremendous Campo gn of 1918 as they learn
that the folks at home are heart and soul behind
them, showing it by a magnificent response to the Red
Triangle Fund appeal—the worth while way.
Help the Y,M,C.A, to increase its helpfulness.
Help it as far as possible to measure up to the bound-
less need l Help with your motley, that more and ever
more soldiers can say, 'I knew you would come 1"
litany people are located at points where one
cannot get into touch with .any canvasser working in
aid of the Red Triangle Fund. If you are so situated
send your money direct. R.ernit by cheque, money
order or registered letter to Thomas Bradshaw, National
Treasurer, Red Triangle Funcl, 120 Bay St., Toronto.
Make your.contributibtt as large as possible,Ebut whether
large or small it will be welcome.

Y. M. C. A.
Francis B. Sayre writing
inftarpers'says: "With only
evil ways in which to spend
money burning in their pock-
ets, with nothing to relieve
the dull monotony of idle
evenings, many of the sold-
iers began to get lonely and
homesick, or to drift along
dangerous paths.
"It was not many days
before officers.began to send
hurry calls for the YM.C.A.
'For God's sake come down
before it's too late and do
something for my men.'"
"Earn and Give"
Campaign
Serve your Country by
your labor and make a gift
to the Red Triangle Fund
from your earnings! What
a fine chance to do a double
servicer Six thousand boys
are asked to give $10 each.
Of the total, $50,000 goes to
help the soldiers, the balance
for boys' work, Gifts must
be at least $10, the standard
unit. A boy may subscribe
:tore than $10 in $10 milts,
but not less. A beautifully
engraved certificate will be
given to each subscriber.
Ask your local Y.M.C.A.re-
presentative for pledge card
and full information, or send
your contribution direct to
