"ON WITH THE DRIVE!"
FOR THI<; RED CROSS AND VICTORY. "I was surprised to see the number of prosperous shop-keepers in Wellington City who turned our canvassers down." 'said Mr. M. Carr, organiser of the Red Cross Drive, to a Dominion reporter. We do not ask for anything out of tho way—os.—for an emblem: ss. for the welfare of our mc?ii who are still fighting gloriously and falling splendidly that we ma.y live in ease and comfort out here. And vet people have tiiriiorl us down—people whom we know would not l>o bruised financially, if they gave twenty times as much. The public, should remember that even when fighting a winning battle, the losses arc enormous, and tho work of the.-Red Cross proceeds'equally with the battle. People should remember that tin; Red Cross Swiuty lias contributed mightily to the winning of this war, and now. in the brighter hours preceding victory, nil hearts should gn out'"to the hnvs who have mi'tV that viotorv possible. Wo ask that the heart should act upon tho pocket. So—on with the drive!" :
