 What does it mean for them? Bit ing cold, shivering bodies. no toys, no laughter, only a vail of hunger Ther are millions of such children i in Europe today. The countries of Europe are broke. they have not the ] food to give them, they are stagger' { ing TIT CT their own burdens. 1 It is to America who of all the na- ! inv hDc lives and money that these little ones must look for help if they are to be saved from perishing.
 ! There are workers among these i children, noble, unselfish men and women who are doing all in their power to help them, but we must ply them with the food and clothing and medicines required or their sery- ice must stop.
 I Dollar Will Do Much 1 These workers represent the Am erican Relief Administration, Ameri- can Red Cross, American Friends i Service Committee, Federal Council i of Churches of Christ in America. Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, Knights of Columbus, Y. M. C. A. Y. I w. c. A., and all find themselves ip urgent need of funds.
 These various Societies have join ed the American Relief administra- tion, and have formed the EuSpean II Relief Council with Herbert Hoover as chairman and Franklin K. Lane as Treasurer. for the purpose of col lecting and distributing funds in the most efficient manner. in other words with the least possible waste.
