It consists o f “ a hunk o f bread and a bowl o f broth each day” and it costs about six cents One m illion Belgian children m ost have an extra ration each day o r they are goin g to die o f slow starvation. This extra ration consists o f a biscuit made o f lard or fa t and a cup o f cocoa. TH A T ' S A L L ; but it is enough to arrest the degeneration o f the grow ing child. TH AT IS A L L ; but it is enough to check the ravages o f tuberculosis, rickets and other diseases that have begun to develop with alarming rapidity am ong the unnourished children. TH AT IS A L L ; but it means the difference between life and death, between continued vitality and slow starvation. One biscuit a day! “ A little more, and oh, how much it is!” One dollar a month will supply this extra ration and save a child. The ap peal comes to the United States to furnish that money and save these children. Jt comes from Herbert Hoover, chairman o f the Commission fo r R elief o f Bel gium. It comes from the Pope, , in a letter to Cardinal Gibbons. It comes from American Physicians (Dr. Lucas, o f the University o f California, is one o f them) who have made examinations o f these children for the Commission. It is an appeal that comes from the most distressed nation on earth to the wealthi est nation the sun ever shone upon. How in God’s Name Can Such Appeal Be Disregarded?

For all the distressed people o f Europe, Asia and A frica, ac cording to the Comptroller o f Currency, we have contributed, since the war b egan ,' less than one-twentieth o f one per eent o f our aggregate income. That is to say, we have di verted one dollar out o f $2,000 o f inbome to the relief o f such distress as the world has nev er before seen. And in this same time, provisions for the Belgians alone have been pur chased from this country to the amount o f over $100,000,000, according to the official docu. mento o f the R elief Commission. What will Coos County do to save the Belgian children? v _ , *’ It is not generally understood that, even in times o f peace, Belgium has to im port 78 per cent o f her breadstuff«. Even in normal conditions she produces but 22 per cent. The harvest o f 1914 was never reaped. The American commissioners all testify that those Bel gians who have means have done and are doing their utmost hi relief-w ork. It is “ Up to” America to save these million starving children, if they are to be saved—to give a biscuit a day as a supplementary meal, in addition to the less than poorhouse rations new received. $12 will give that extra meal to One Child for a year The SENTINEL appeals fo r contributions in sums o f $100, $50, $25, $10, $5, $3, $2, $1, or anything you can contribute and get your friends to help make up the total. A ll g ifts will be acknowledged in our columns. Every cent o f every dollar will go to the feeding o f a Belgian child. N ot a cent w ill be de ducted anywhere along the line fo r postage or clerical help or transportation or administrative expenses. Alt the money will be applied to the purpose for which it is given, through the Commission for R elief in Belgium. Let the response be quick and prompt and generous. The SEN TINEL will start the list by taking care o f eight children for one year— $100. Remember, $12 will save a Belgian child from slow starvation. H ELP US TO RAISE ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS. Readers o f the SEN TINEL should do that and do it quickly. Hqw many children will YOU save from slow starvation during the year 1917. Ten? Five? Three?
