nothing back. Unasked, but stirred within by the urge of manhood
and pride of race, they go forth bravely to face hardship, loneliness
and danger, to risk life itself, in a great cause.
It is your cause for which they fight. You are not asked to give
your own life -but you can help to save one.
The Red Cross, of glorious tradition, unchallenged in purpose,
needs your help so that it can answer tanks with ambulances,
bombs with beds, horrors with hospitals, cruelty with mercy.
Those of us at home will not be less loyal, less generous than our
fighting men. We can remind them daily of our gratitude and our
devotion, through the Red Cross.
