BleAMES CARDINAL GIBBONS ; “ HEY are our sons and brothers; flesh of our flesh. We have sent them across the sea to fight—but we are determined that they should know that the people at home are fighting with them, standing with them, shoulder to shoulder.” Why you should give g twice as much as you ever gave before! HE need is for a sum 70% greater , than any gift ever asked for since , the war began. The Government has fixed this sum at $170,500,000. . , By giving to these seven organizations / all at once, the cost'and efiort of six ,1 additional campaigns is saved. Unless Americans do give twice as . much as ever before, our soldiers and - sailors may not enjoy during 1919 their 3600 Recreation Buildings 1000 Miles of _Movie Film 100 Leading Stage Stars" 2000 Athletic Directors 2500 Librariessupplying 5,000,000books 85 Hostess Houses 15,000 Big-brother "secretaries" Millions of dollars of home comforts ‘When you give double, you make sure . that every fighter has the cheer and com- ? forts of these seven organizations every step of the way from home to the front : and bhck again.

She has carried the presence, the atmosphere of home into the camps across the seas, that everywhere the soldier may realize there are fatherly hands to help him, motherly hands to console him, friendly hands to entertain him. “All these seven organizations now stand upon one platfonn.-~that of providing recreation, entertainment and home comfort for our troops. From that common platform, all, together with one voice, will make a single appeal to the American people. “These seven organizations have agreed by direction of the Govern- ment upon definite budgets and all are working under a general national committee upon which all are represented for a united war work cam- paign to raise the sum of $170,500,000. “Enormous as that sum may be, the American people will raise it— generously and gladly. . “When one considers an army of over 4,000,000; a navy that roosters over 500,000 men in its service; the number and size of our camps; the buildings to be erected; the secretaries to be maintained; the equipment to be furnished; the visitors' houses to be built; the community service to be extended into every city and town of the country; the protective work most necessary and vital for all our people, which this war has given to us as our share to maintain, one will see that the sum is none too great for . this enormous task. a. ”We cannot shirlt it. We cannot shift it. To attempt to do so would be to prove false to the ’men who are giving their bodies and their lives for our national safety. “It is an American campaign. Its appeal is one that no American may refuse, and America’s answer will be another triumphant announce- ment thatwe arein this warasone people and same nation tosee it through to victory. "The entire Catholic body of . the country is organized to crown this campaign wrth victory. Every diocese has harnessed itsown resources, will work with the state committees of the United War Work Campaign and give the utmost service." - _ , _ ‘ . , ~. f uncut-”Wan a acumen-ante. . 0 nylon mm" m ’ every little CAST BALLOTS 1N FRANCE, A Few Oriental Rugs At prices below the market of today These are Kazaks of exceptionally heavy weave.
