[This poem was written bv K. Mill Oliver, a late lieutenant in the A us tralian forces who was wouuded at Passchendaele in October, 1917, and has just been discharged by reason of his wounds. He is now iu ¡San Francisco en .-oute to his home in Australia. | Each mother's son »h o has given his life In freedom’s fight over there. Each wooden cross that points to the sky, Demands that you do your share. Each Belgiau babe that has lost its home, The fatherless, motherless too, Cry for succor but not in vain For their cries are heard by you. Each tender nurse »h o mothers us Back to health and strength again Can't work alone; she needs vour help Though far from the field of pain. Each dawn that rises sees on the tape Your sons, waiting the word to go. And when the barrage thunders down They have never faltered or gone too alow. So each over here can do a share Though not in an active way. Just buy a bond and help to drive To his den the world’s beast of prey. Drive him to his den and across the door The stone of Liberty roll. And blot out the name that has blood stained Civilization's sacred scroll. HOPE PEACE, BUT FIGHT.
