THE KINGDOM OF GRIEF!

A penny day from every Amer.
lean will clothe the ragged women
and children of Belgium and Northern
France.
Think of it: One cent per head
from the inhabitants of the United
States means a million dollars daily
if all of us did our share.
But that would mean calling upon the
babe in arms and the cripple on crutches---the
slum dweler and the observation-disclosures
and villagers and city follz---it would demand
an organization, not only to carry the news OF
Belgium's plight but to collect funds and do
any number of other practically impossible
things.
While all America must, in theory, provide
for Belqium's destitute, few Americans WILL
in actuality, have to do the work.
The burden of relief falls upon the big
cities. where concentrated action is possible
and where the daily press can bring the con-
dition of these innocent sufferers of Worlds
War constantly to the notice of the commu-
nitv, until every one comprehends their dire
straits and the pressing need.
In such instances as these you, the aver
ace man and woman, are all too likely to as
sumo that your cooperation is not vitality re-
ouired,-that there will be enough assistance
rendered without your individual aid, and,
contrasting your means with the income OF
multitude of richer men, will, in genuine sim

Don't think of the millions of dollars that
have been raised, but think of the three millions
in Belgium and Northern France who are still
destitute. Previous contributions seem stu
pendous until you consider the number of
beneficiaries, and then you'll find what short
end the individual gets.
