BE Y TO HUMANITY.

Before the Herald comes before it,
readers again, the week of the Red Gross
will have ended. Brownsville will have
made a record for liberal, loyal giving TO
that cause which every loyal American cit
ixen must love.
Shall we fail to raise the $4,000 plcdg-
ed by the town.
The Central committee asked Browns
vile to give $4,000.
Our people felt that it would he impos-
sible to raise that sum-, but they have Of
fered half the amount. Many Texas towns
smaller than Brownsville nv thousands Of
population are raising $4,000. Browns
vile could not give less and maintain her
self respect.
pledged BY u will be in the bank by Mon
day-evcry cent of il. The response %
far has been generous indeed. Few have
refused to give the amount assessed
against them by the finance committee OF
the Rio Grande Red Cross Chapter. y
good many. however, have not yet r.
sponded. These are. the men and. women
today in whose hands rests the reputation
of Brownsville for loyalty, for patriotic
devotion to the flag.
Many have come Harvard Voluntarily
without waiting to be asked. and shown
their patriotism by placing their name on
the list for even more than the committed
would have assessed against them. The
example of one citizen in particular should
inspire every American in this town. Mr.
Frank Lucena was assessed by the com
mittee at only five dollars. lie called on
the committee early, and his words should
be remembered by every American of NJ,
Mr.. Lucena said:
al cannot fight. | am too old. My hoy
Is too young. NY wife and my mother
cannot fight. Here is SIS apiece for each
Of u.s.
-Four times the amount asked of him
The spirit shown by this citizen i one oi
which every Brownsville man or womar
should be proud. How many of ~ can
match that generosity! How many are -
patriotic.
Citizens of Brovrsville-you wh" have
not vet given your share 10 the Red Gross
fund-wiIl you not come forward at once
and prove your devotion tn your country
