‘fm afraid that's al I can spare
You’re a regular, red-blooded, true-blue American. You lpve your country. Aou
love that flapping, snapping old flag. Your heart thumps hart! when the troops tramp
by. You’re LOYAL—100 per cent. / #
You intend to—you WANT to—help' win the war in a hurry.
“Sacrifice! Sure,” you’ve been thinking. “Just wait till they really need it.
And you’ve honestly thought you MEANT that too.
But—look yourself in the eye- now- and search up and down inside of your heart
—did you mean itt DIP you really mean ‘sacrifice”!
Listen: you feel poor. This Third Liberty loan, the high prices, the Income Tax—
you’ve DONE your bit. You feel that you’ve given all that you oau spare-
WHAT! Then WHAT did you mean* What’s that you said about loving your
country! What did youu think the word “sacrifice” means!
Surely you did’t mean, did you, to give only what you can SPARE!
What about our boys who are giving* their lives in the trenches! Are they giv-
ing only what they can “spare”* _
How about those mothers and tlwse little “kiddies” in Die shell wrecked towns
of that war swept hell:—hungry—ragged—sobbing—alone! Giving up their homes,
their liusbftods their fathera! - , ,
While WE—over here with our fuu and our comforts—we hold up our heads and
fed PATttQITJC because have given—WHAT! Some louse brlls oil the top ot
our roll. WE’VE given all we can spare!” • . . ...
Come, come! Let’s quit fooling ourselves, Let us’Jeam whut
MEANS. Let us give MORE tlihu we can spare—let ns gue till the heart says
stopu”
