His Majesty's Lead
1 J|IS MAJESTY THE KING | I ; made a notable gesture § 1 when he donated £10,000, or | I' practically the whole of the • | | great thanks offering which | x | was presented to him on his | 1 recqvery from his recent ill- 1 | ness, to. the British Empire § = Cancer Research Fund. | | The fact that His Majesty, | | with so many calls upon his .§■ | generosity, felt that the cam- I | paign against cancer was the | | one most deserving, is m itself .| . | some indication of the im- f | portance of the movement. | 1 The King is the patron of f | the campaign, but he is far | | more than a mere figure- § | head. It has his : own per- | ■ | sonal interest arid m every | | way possible,* His Majesty has | | done his best to foster the | I movement. § | But what the King has I 1 done on a kingly scale, his- jj | subjects all over the Empire | | can do according to, their | | means. The fight against the | | great enemy of civilization is § | on to the death, and the. | | Empire expects every man, | I woman, and child to do its I | duty. • ' . - |
