You love your country. You love that flapping, snapping old Hag. Your heart thumps hard when the troops tramp by. You’re lo y a l— 100 per cent. You intend to— you w ant to help win the war in a hurry. “Sacrifice? Sure,” you’ve been thinking. “Just you wait till they really need it.” And you’ve honestly thought you m eant it. But—look yourself in the eye, now, and search up and down inside of your heart did you mean it? Did you really mean “sacri fice” ? Listen— You feel poor. This third Liberty Loan, the high prices, the Income Tax you’ve done your hit. You feel that you’ve given all you can spare. What? Then what did you mean? W hat’s that you said about loving your country? What did you think the word “sacrifice meant? Surely you didn’t mean, «lid you, to give only what you can spare? What about our boys who are giving their lives in the trenches? Are they giving only what they can “spare” ? How about those mothers and little “kiddies” in the shell-wrecked towns of that war-swept hell hungry, ragged, sobbing, alone? — giving up their homes, their husbands, their fathers? While we over here, with our fun and our comforts,—we hold up our heads and feel patriotic because we have given what? Some loose bills off the top of our roll. “W e’ve given all we can spare!" Come, come! Let’s quit fooling ourselves. Let’s learn what “sacrifice” m eans. Let’s give m ore than we can spare — let’s “give till the heart says stop.” Every cent of every dollar received for Red Cross War Fund goes for War Relief.
