O “When I had no shoes I complained-until I saw a boy who had no feet”. So reads an ancient proverb.

[Alt by air-raiders to face life without lee! or legs, is the pitiful lot of Tony Hyert, of Wickham, Eng- land. He is but one of thousands whose sufferings and lose make our own trials seem trivial by comparison.

Will you help the Red Cross care for these innocent victims of modern savagery? The bombed-out in the cities-the wounded in the field-the sick in hospital-the captives in enemy hands-the starving women and children of the liberated countries all look to the Red Cross.

Because the world needs the Red Cross as never before, your generous support is needed now more than ever. Lend a hand! GIVE GENEROUSLY.
