HENRY
'he Red Cross sounds a clarion call
'hroughout the land?the call for all.
i call that carries the holy thought,
)f Christian victory, dearly bought.
fcevoked, the guns of carnage cease:
hipernal, wings the dove of Peace,
fet from devastated lands ascend the cries
)f hurt and homeless: war's sacrifice.
K mighty.chorus of pain and woe,
Wells up to Heaven, from the crushing blow.
For Flanders' fields are blight and bare;
Where once they fruited rich and fair:
Where once the poppies gloried red,
Vow sleep the hosts of martyred dead _ ^
Returning home, where no homes are,
Instead, the wrecks of battle scar,
N, V.
the legions view, yet scarce understand,
rhe chaos of destruction's ruthless hand.
In grief's deep abyss of despair,
Plunged are the stricken everywhere.
Shall orphaned lips now moan in vain?
Shall helpless waifs unhelped remain?
Shall aged and ailing, sick and failing,
Suffer on, their fate bewailing?

Shall blackened hearths, whence hope has fl

The Red Cross answers its thundering NO!
Its hlazened banners forward go!
