You are neither too big financially or too little to neglect Or overlook or disregard this appeal for support of our Government and our Boys. Your subscription and the evidence- ' of it will bring others to a realization of (their DUTY. Don't withhold this moral support any more than you intend to withhold your FINANCIAL SUPPORT.
