iou Gave
One of the biggest Jobs the U.S.'O. 'did last year was to carry,
a slice of home to our boys overseas. Traveling shows that gave
to those fighting men the best talent and entertainment this
country had to o(!
Bob hiopc . . . oaiuic .uandis ... Joe E. Brown .'. . Kay
Francis. The top names of radio and Hollywood. Vaudeville
and night club headliners. Singers, dancers, magicians, ven
triloquists, comedians, swing bands.
Entertainment that gave them the chance to relax and re
member what home is like. That's what your dollars helped
make possible in hundreds of overseas outposts.
It's Hard to measure the effect this boost in morale had on
all the gains we've so far made in this war. That it had an im
portant effect has been acknowledged by our military leaders.
But most important, it helped relieve for a while the loneli
ness of millions of boys away from home. And that was cer
tainly worth every dollar you gave.
The job isn't over yet. There are still millions of boys across
the seas. We can't let them down now. That's why you're being
asked to give again, this year to give more than ever before.
Much of your gift will be needed here to help servicemen's
families, to help solve juvenile delinquency, to care for the
needy. Much of your gift will go overseas, to war prisoners, to
Merchant Seamen, to homeless refugees. Make your contri
bution today, through your local community drive.
