BARBED WIRE and eneiny guards "do not a Prison make" for
Canadian soldiers captured by the enemy. Their thoughts, wing-
ing across the sea, meet Red Cross parcels on their way to them.
Last year, the enemy said "pass" to 2,000,000 such parcels. They
were packed with 22,000,000 pounds of food and comforts
welcomed by men to whom the barest necessities have become
luxuries.
But, most of all, to each prisoner every Red Cross. Marcel is a
message from home -a definite assurance that he is not for-
gotten, a reininder that no captured Canadian soldier is ever
marked "off strength" by the Red. Cross.
Thirty percent of the money you gave to the Red Cross last year
was used to provide parcels for prisoners of war. The .money
you give now will help to keep up and increase this clow of
good cheer and hope to these lonely men.
Consult your heart , . • Obey its dictates ... Give liberally
