have all heard that remark more than but there is much to worry about yet We're not out of the game simply because the Hung bava laid down their guns What you gave Heather Day and at the Fair is surely not the limit of your sacrifice! There are thousands and thousands of brave men condemned to pass the rest of dir lives in misery unless we rally to the aid of the great work of healing. Thanks to the Army and Navy, we we have bad, and will continue to have, a very com fortable time in Hongkong. It is our duty, then to **worry," in order that the maimed and sirk, the human wreckage of the great war of Liberty, may be restored. Every one of us here owes a great debt to the men who fought and bled in war-a debt which we can never
ever repay. But we can show our apprecia- tion by giving our last cent to the great work of mercy in which to many noble men and women are ergaged at home. Money is urgently needed. Shall we grudge it now that the war is won Never let it be said that our patriotism and honour petered out with the echo of the last shot. Don't say that you put every cent you had into Heather Day and St. Andrew's Fair The War Bond Drawing is for the same cause and its success must be written down in the annals of the Colony's giving as another endeavour to show tangible appreciation of the brilliant achievements, on the battefield and on the North Sea, of the bravest boya on earth. Make the result a Victory Offering worthy of the Colony.
