Across the Seas They Call

Cross help.
1t comes from soldiers who have grim]y faced the

t~hrobbing wounds.
It comes from soldiers sick with fever, pneumonia,

It comes from soldiers crippled, mutilated,

and trained for useful occupations.
1t comes from the underfed, s~hivering, helpless
prisoners in the German prison camps.

that because of the frightful burdens placed upon
our Allies cannot be giuen unless it be provided BY the

an English army fought in Italy, and

French pushed on into Calabrla, and
began to make extensive preparations.
But the English forces for the de-
Tense of Sicily prepared to deal blow

Last Friday finished the schoo
work of 1918. In locking back over
