The urgent need of assistance of
the American people to help the Bel

ton and purposes buying cloth by the
bolt, having it made up by the natives
| for Fall wear The children of north
ern France have suffered badly for
| the want of clothing particularly
| shoes.
| Until the close of the war they will
need all the outside help that can be
rendered them. Other charitable sour
ces are trying to feed Belgians for the
moment. They are doing this in or
der that the United States may de-
vote its energies to the supply of
} clothing. Women and children are
desperately in need of the common de-
| cencies of clothing. What condition
do you suppose your wardrobe would
be in after eighteen months of war?
And if sharing with your neighbors
as these high spirited Belgians have
done.

| G. R. 3. to all members of the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution to be
