Lieut.. COningsby Dawson, Fight

Appeal for Y. w. C. A.


Lieut.. Coningsby Dawson, who wrote
Garry On" says Of the war work
which the Y. w. G. A. is doing You
at home cannot fight with your lives.
but you can fight with your mercy.
The Y. w. c. A. is offering you just
this chance 1t garrisons the womens
support trenches, which lie behind the
mems, 1t asks you to supply them
with munitions of nercy that they
may be passed on to us. We need
such supplies badly. Give generously
that we may the sooner defeat the
Hun"
What Lieut.. Dawson says of the Z.
w. G. A. he might have said of all the
national organiza tons which are COM
ing together for the biggest financial
campaign that organizations have ever
headed. All the $170,500,000 to be
raised by the seven great national or
CARNATIONS the week of November IL
will be used to garrison aud supply

Another Liberty Loan
Coming Says M'Adoo

Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
has announeedd that, no matter what
the results of the pending overtures
for peace may be, there viii be an-
other Liberty Loan. To use his ex-
preston: Eve are going to have to
finance peace for a while just as we
have had to finance war"
There. are over 100000 United
States soldiers abroad. Il we trans
port these men back to the United
States at the rate of 800, 600 month.
it will be over half year before they
are all returned. Our army, there
fore, must be maintained, victualed
and clothed for many months after
peace is an actuality.
The American people, therefore,
having supported the Liberty Loans
with a patriotism that future histor-
ians will love to extol, win have an
opportunity to show the same patriot
ism in financing the just and conclu-
sive victorious peace whenever it
comes.
One more Liberty Loan, at least, is
certain. The fourth loan was popu-
larry called the Fighting Loan; the
next viii be a peace loan. Whatever
the conditions, the loan must be pre-
pared for and its success rendered
certain and absolute. Begin now to
prepare to support it.
