Little children are actually
dying from lack of food and
nourishment; mothers are forced
to the decision as to which of her
children she must let die for the
want of sufficient food to keep
them alive.
II is the call Of suffering hui
manity--an appeal for the things
we waste every day of our lives.
The things we throw away and
waste at each meal are sufficient
to keep alive hundreds and hum
dreds of little children who are
suffering from the pangs of
hunger and dying by day and by
night.
Won't you give something TO
help these poor little helpless,
suffering tots who have not known
what il is to have enough to eat.
