THE HORRORS OF WAR
BY John GalsWorthy

AS the sands of the sea for mum
Der, are the sufferers in thB war
If there be any sort of brotherhood
between man and fellowman, we arr
all sufferers in the greatest tragedy
that ever befell the human race. Blu
most of us here in America are spar.
ed the actual and atrocious forms o.
physical suffering, the CHASTITY wound
ed, the blistering feyers, the starva-
ton, and the homelessness that line
the road of this struggle, irving the
heart, twisting the very neck of Eu-
rope. We are spared sight of the
hours of moaning; spared vision of
the seas alive with the drowning.
When the "Lusitania' was keeling
over, one on board who survived, saw
"A great wave sweeping back on her
black with wailing men, women and
children. We are spared sight of
manned and blinded soldiers and of
their pitiful heroic cheeriness; and
spared the long agonized waiting for
news of those we love.
For us in this land still peaceful,
1t is hard to realize that nearly three
million French and Belgians are be-
ing just kept alive by doles of char
liable food which may yet fail them;
that at least twice as many have been
pIucked from thriving prosperity and
flung into the dingy heap of ruin;
that the Serbian people and the Polish
fever and want.
All these things are hard to see,
to realize, so far off are they. And
yet, if there be a soul in man, heart
in our people, we must try and realize
and do what little we can to stay this
tide of suffering.
For most of us money is the only
thing that we can give. Money is
cold, but it buys warmth, hope, shell
ter, ease from the sweats of agony; |
it mends limbs, keeps mothers with |
aittf Cnhuitu, JULIUS uOlIco again.
Money. 1t fights fever and feeds the |
starving. Let us give money. If we
do not give, how shall we show that
the spirit of America suffers with
the suffering of these millions of in
nocent, MANNED, fevered, starving
bodies, these millions of innocent and
tortured souls.
How else, save by giving and again
giving, shall we-can we-show our
pity and our comradeship?

erers from the war may be sent to
