However Small

By spending a half hour a day in your garden you
can render as great a service to our community and
Government as in any other capacity, and, if as our
most brilliant diplomats claim, this awful carnage of
war continues from 3 to 5 years, we all, regardless
of nationality, creed, color or birth, owe to our local
community as well as our Government, what serv-
ices we can render to save us from the privations
that would seem inevitable in view of the leSSening
of European production.
Even though the war should be terminated before
we can place this proposition before you, there
should be no lessening of production, due to the
tact that two years, or more, must elapSe before
Europe can produce even a small portion of her
natural production.
