FRENCH NATIONAL DAY FUND.
Now at the crisis of her fate, never did slie, France, lift'her-head more nobly, and never did she fling back a challenge with a clearer voice. Her Army is still whole, strong, and utterly unbroken. What of the nation? The civilian sufferers, the homeless, the war victims, the children, the aged— enduring without murmur, magnificent in their firm patience, defiant in their determination to uphold Truth and Liberty, and win for us Victory. We cannot measure France's sacrifice, but -we can do something to minister to her needs. Our debt of gratitude can never be paid. To France we owe our safety. Let us join in sending her a tokeb of our afiectionate admiration, a proof of our care and concern for her sufferers. Our splendid Ally needs our help now. Will you add to our tribute?
