In response to notice signed ON behalf ofthe State

fore let not the noble effort of the la
dies, or the liberal contributions of the
other sex be relaxed. The battles of
the last two weeks are but the first of
a series we shall have to undergo be-
fore this campaign is finished and the
war ended. If our contributions are
not needed now, they soon will be,
and it is much better to have the
needed articles on hand than to wait
for them when they are wanted. Let
us continue the good work even to the
extent of some personal sacrifice if
need be. Think how much more the
soldier has sacrificed than it is possible
for those to do who have remained ut
home.
