Easter. 1943 ***• * \ • Because Americans believe in the essential goodness in the world we live in and that the cause of Right shall triumph over the forces of evil, Easter, this year, carries a special significance to us all. Those of us Who are not permitted to serve our country directly, none the less face a deep moral responsibility. We must do all that we humanly can, in every way that we can, to keep alive in our nation the consciousness that our faith and hope are more than justified in the ultimate Victory for which We strive. Among the greatest of the blessings which have been ours and the one which we must perpetuate, is the American Way of Life. With this thought in mind, we shall cheerfully meet every demand made upon us to help our country win the war and yet retain the unself ishness which^springs from the knowledge that Right Will prevail and the things for which we fought will be maintained throughout the world for the years to come. May we cooperate with you in making this a more beautiful Easter for some loved one? Please come and see us or phone. We shall be happy indeeti to serve you.
