A Red Cross Appeal
BY Mrs A. T. steptoe.

Oh women Of America awake and do
your share,
For there is work aplenty waiting
everywhere.
Our country is at war and there is work
for you TO do
The call is not for men alone, It means
the women too.
There are thousands Of brave women
who are straining
Every nerve, to try and do their duty,
their country TO serve.
But how many, many thousands fail to-
day 10 do their part,
Say 81 do intend to do IT," but they
never get a start.
Every "mickle" makes a "muckle" you
hear the ScOtchman say,
So start to do your mickle, and start
this very day.
IL isn't an the great things that make
the highest mount
There Is q good old saying, ITS the lit
tie things that count.
Come let us get together maids and
matrons Of this land.
Wen forge o chain TO hold us firm, with
both the heart and nand.
So now be up and doing, every one must
do their Bit
There Is always some odd corner in
which we all will llt.
So listen TO the summons and do not
idle sit, for the
Red Cross do some sewing, or some
warm things you can knit.
You don't have to carry bayonet, a
knapsack or a gun,
But You can do your duty until the vic
tory is won.
You cannot raise your eyes but you see
a sign up there,
The Stars and Stripes a-1ying, the Red
Cross everywhere.
Oh, docs It not appeal to you, ye women
Of this land,
That we must work together as strong
and loyal band,
To help our boys who now have gone
to face a deadly foe,
To give their lives as a sacrifice, to
down the tyrant low.
Some say "Oh, have none to 80 into
this horrid war
Let them think Of all the mothers,
whose loving hearts are sore.
Come, show that you are human, that
you have feelings too,
And do not sit with folded hands and
say what can do2'
There Is at Sixth and Market a building
you all know
10 Is flled with loyal workers, who are
urging you to sew
So Join This band of women who have
entered i'm the strife,
Who are working for humanity, help
ing to save some life.
Just think Of the perlls O. the sea, the
slaughter on the land,
Don't hesitate a moment more, come
lend a helping hand.
This Is a war for women, just as 1t Is
for men, and we
Must do our duty if we want this war
TO end.
So awake, awake yo women, come IN
and do your bit,
And hunt that little corner in which
youll surely TT.
oh, don't you hear the battle cry for
freedom everywhere,
The answer to that cry must be, "Nlc-
tory over there"
When you took that little button that
you wear upon your breast
Did you think it meant exemption, no.
il meant, 81 do my best
To help 10 save our noble boys; that is
the sign and seal
That binds you to your country's call,
and everyone should kneel.
When the day Is over and you sit in
warmth and Hight,
DO you ask yourself the question:
where are our boys tonight?
Am trying TO do my duty TO keep them
well and strong,
Am I adding to their comfort as they
go to right a wrongG"
SO awake, awake ye women; come and
do your bit,
/ Remember there's a corner In which
= you all will ut.
