War preparations and demands are in
creasing at such rate that the Young Mems
Christian Association has had to make call
for So 100000 to carry on its war activities
This will be needed for work among our SOL
diers at home and abroad. and also with the
troops of Russia France and Italy. The
work that is being carried on by the assoca-
ton ranks next in Importance TO that of the
Red Cross. The sum apportioned for Nir
ginia to raise is 100000. That the full
amount will be subscribed may be taken for
granted. Virginia has an unbrokcn record
for meeting every demand that is made upon
her in matters of this kind With the
proposition put squarely before the people
and intelligently urged, they will not balk
in raising the full amount.
