If You Were There Instead of Here
IF you should see a French child a tiny girl-rsitting
by the roadside, sobbing quietly because she is too
weak from hunger to cry very loud, you would sell
your watch to -buy her breakfast
If you should hear somewhere in the restless'
wards the low moan of an American soldier, you
would gladly sit by him all night, if that would save his
life.
You are not there, but here, where these sights and
sounds are not brought home to you! But the Red
Cross is there and you can make it your representa
tive! Over there the Prussians are crucifying the incar
nate Liberty of Man, and they are making the world
black for little children!
The money you give to the Red Cross now will
give you the right when the Beast is beaten down, to
think. "There are happy children, dear eyed women
and strong men alive tpday, because my money went
across!"
What are you going to do about it? ,
