THE Allies are still hungry, and if

And who, having, heard it, having
realized the necessity Tor the cry from

There are two deffuite appeals to us

The one is to patlia3ism and to

our cause; our men. are fighting

Il food fails tilc fighters must fail:
the war must he lost: None of us are
TOO ignorant to know: what a German
Victory would mean, especially to the
women and children of the land. So,
our love of country, our love of our
h0nes, our every instinct Of self
preservation must make: us do each
Thug, whether great OF small, towards
victory.
The other appeal is that of humanf-
ty. Who can refuse ta deny himself
because Of his greediliess, his love
Of his own food habits,s~ when the
thought comes Of the Allies suffering?
