HELP THE RED CROSS

Next week is Red Cross week. During
that time there must be raised Sl00,000,000
for the great cause this organization repre-
scnts. OF this vast SUM Ontario is asked To
contribute just 5000 This 5000 repre-
scnts, according NJ assurances risks the val
ne Of one man. And most people believe it
is mighty low estimate TO place on the value
of a man.
Therefore if all those citizens of Ontario
who are blessed with more than they need
for their present comfort of this worlds
goods combine TO makeup the 5000 they
will be doing mo more than, yes far less than
a single family which has sent SON to the
army.
If there is a single American soldier
who dies from lack of care, beeause the Red
Cross had NOT sufficient funds, that life can
be charged To the niggardliness or careless
ness of the American people,
TO provide attention for an army Of
100000 the Red Cross is seeking 100000
600 on approximately 800 per man For the
first year. Ontario has sent nearly so boys
to the army and navy, SO that the $4,000 we
are asked TO raise for the Red Cross repre-
sent the cost oil their protection and care.
Are not the sons of Ontario worthy Of
that carel Ii the boys are willing to go and
to die, if necessary for the cause of the
country are not thoseof us who remain at
home willing TO see that they may be provid-
ed with everything that thotful care and
generous hearts cam think of
When put TO the test Ontario will not 90

MONEY OR YOUR LIFE

Which will it be Mr. Ontarian2 Especi-
ally, which will it be you who have money,
are ineligible for conscription and have no
sons to offer for your country
The damnable shame this country will
suffer if the Liberty Loan is not subscribed
should bring disgrace to those who in their
opolence could have made it success All
the sackers are not to be found among those
who avoided registration. The man who has
from the taxes he will have TO pay, is a worse
money and who does not do his part aside
Stacker than he who fails to register
Have those wealthy citizens who have
not done their full share ever stopped to
think that the government which can con
script men can also conscript property Is
it not more reasonable that property be con
fscated than men conscripted7 Human life
is more sacred than mere money.
If the rich men of this nation do not
perform their duty and dedicate their wealth
to the service of the nation instead of, as
some are doing, complaining of the low in
terest rate they may find such revolution
of public opinion against them that it will
not be hard for congress to take step to-
ward Communicating the wealth of the ma
ton 1t is strickly up to those who have
money to do their duty. If the rich men fail,
that failure just helps make socialists and
anarchists.
Fortunately, however, most of the men
of wealth thruout the nation are demons
trating their loyalty by active work and by
large subscriptions to Liberty Bonds. They
should be the leaders in the movement for
the up building of the defense of the nation
They get the greater benefit therefrom.
There, is too, another reason why the
wealthy citizens of this section particularly
should lead the movement for the Liberty
Loan. The wealth they have accumulated
in the past three years is in n large sense
dyed in blood of millions of victims of the
awful German war. Our prosperity is a war
There is no denying of il. The
war has made wool 90 to its present prices.
The war has sent cattle TO the top, and like
wise hay and every product of this region.
BY purchasing a Liberty Bond those
who have thus profited would be showing mo-
thing more than sense of decent apprecia-
ton for the protection which has made i'll
possible for them to continue 10 do business
and accumulate wealth under such favor
able circumstances.

"Too LATE"

cover the pages of British History for
the past three years have been written two
words" recently declared Herbert Hoover,
and those words are, "Too Late.
There is but too much truth in that
statement for in that indictment can be seen
the cause of the defeat of armies in CALI
polli, and the first expedition in Mesopot-
amia Likewise because too late" did they
recognize the Importance of immediate and
adequate action, there resulted the failure in
the Balkans which permitted the destruc-
ton of Serbia and Roumania. "T0o Lat" "
every where in going to the assistance of
their allies the British Armies early in the
war suffered enormous losses. Thousands
upon thousands of brave British Tommies
now rest in unknown graves, somewhere IN
France" somewhere in the Balkans, some
where in Mcsopotania'
The British public would not acknowl-
edge that old foot ball axiom that, "the best
defense is a mighty good offense". The man
who can hit hardest is the man who gets hurt
the least, especially il he hits first. John Bull
waited too long. he sent troops "too late to
the support of General Townsend and made
the capture of Kut-el Amara possible, and
with il set back the campaign year besides
sacrificing thousands of soldiers to the old
spirit of procrastinatlon.
Forthree years the people OF the United
States have witnessed this fatal weakness ON
the part of the people of Great Britain. Brit
ish leaders have visited our country to tell
ms of where and how they have crrored. But
these truths, ms yet, appear 10 have made no
impression ON our minds We. are certainly
English in our attitude toward this war. We
at least it is apparent that the most of us be-
licve, that we bunder thru some how.
Judging from the apathy with which
the people are subscribing To the Liberty
Loan and the CONSERVATION with which,
some view the fact that Ontario will be call
ed upon to raise 5000 for the Red Cross,
one is compelled to believe that the lessons
of the war have not yet been learned and
that some day Hoover will say, "for years
two words have been written ON the pages
of American History, and those words are
81 too late!
