I AN APPEAL TO YOU Camden Must Raise $500.00 For The American Red Cross This Week. ~r ? - f ; . Jf ' .,*?>.-.7;^. i To understand why the American Ited Cross needs no much' money it uiut^t lie remeurl>ered tliat it has h work to do for ocir allies as well as for the great army of American soldiers and sailors now 'being mobilized for service in the war against Germany. It will only he a few months until we have an army of?a million men and a navy of a hundred and fifty thousand .men. It Js the tank of rhe Red Cross to care for these men when they are sick and wound ed. The Red Cross must care also for the distressed of other v countries. It must aid lu combating tuberculosis, which, has In come prevalent in France,, as a result of trench warfare. It mu?t look after the homeless in the fifteen hundred towns aud villages of France which have been iaid"~1srffBtew It must lend its aid to alUcted Russia,'where on a line of a thousand miles there arc - only 6,000 ambulances, a? against 64,000 on the French front of fpur hundred miles. All. its resources will be taxed, no matter how generous the response of the American people to the appeal now being made. President Wilson has proclaimed the week of June 18-25. as "Red Cross Week. He has designated some of the foremost business and professional men in the United State* to lend InTthe campaign for the #100,000,000 war fund which the KM Cross needs.

All churches inr Camden, both white and colored -will receive the returns next Sunday. t'amden Is asked for $000.00. and Candeu Is going to raise tills amount. -We will do it with very little efTort if you and . I will do our bit. In a letter to the Red Cross/ descrlldng the suffering which the . Red Cross desires to alleviate, a young American Red Cross work er in France, telling of hospital life dnrlng the buttle at Verdun i.v?; x: "In the lied fiearest the door, a French priest, shot through the lungs?with pneumonia setting In?his block lieard jioluted straight up, and whispering for water. Next to him, a little German lad. hardly nineteen and small with aliout six hours to live, calling sometimes screaming for his mother, ami then for water. Next to him a French captain of infantry with his arm off at the shoul der and Ids head Wounded,, weak, dying, hat smiling; and next to him a French soldier in delirium calling On his Colonel to charge the Hermans." As soon as our force* !>egiu to get <s? the tiring line, there too will be the cry and moail of BEe American. Will we wait for the cry of oar loved ones before we realize that there Is real suffering?
