A Baby
Can Live if
You Say So
(By Bruce Barton)

I sometimes put it to my
self this way.
Suppose that somewhere
down III Ludlow, Newport,
OF here in st. Joinsbury,
there were a huge auction
room, where the lives of
men and OF little children
were on sale.
Suppose that every day
the auctioneer's red flag
hung out as a sign that on
that day so many men were
to be allowed to die; SO many
women; and SO many little
ones.
Suppose that were the
case, I say to myself; could
/ possibly stay away? Is
there any argument I could
give to myself that would
keep me from going there
day after day, and buying
with all my power? Buying
men and women and chill
dren, at that auctioneer's
block, with the dollars that
would mean life to them?
Tt'c not q yerv pretty pic
ture; yet compared to the pic
lures that I have seen from
stricken Armenia and Syria,
and all the empires of the
Near East, it is almost beau
tiful.
For men and women and
children are dying over
thcre-dying for the lack of
sums that seem pitifully,
nliserably small.
! am not rich, and ! have
all the little worries that are
common to US middle class
folks. Worries about next
years income tax; and about
the future Of business, and
where my income will go to
if such and such things take
place.
But I have a worse worry
than that. The worry for
what my conscience will say
to me, if in this hour of the
worlds tribulation | do not
do my share.
The worry lest in my ears
for the rest Of my life there
should be the cry of a man,
or a woman, or a little child
whose life I might have saw
ed.
For they are crying over
there today, stretching out
their weak, tired arms. And
it's a marvellous thought to
me, that modest as my in
come is, it's big enough to
let me save the life Of one of
them-big enough to give
me a man, or a woman, or a
child who will never cease to
be thankful that I did my
part.
They are waiting for our
answer over there; yours and
mine: A poor stricken man
broken by the war; and a
woman, weak from her strug-
gle and terror; and a baby
who can live and grow up in
to useful manhood or wo-
manhood, if only you say the
word.
