I ask you to make, good these sacrifices. As the and is not in sight more and mon men are wanted to keep the armies in the field and, through them, secure victory and an enduring peace. In ancient days the darkest moment has ever' produced in the men of our mee the stemnest resolve. I ask you, men of all classes, to come for ward voluntarily, and take your share in the fight. In freely respond- 901ing to my appeal you will be giving your support to our brothers who have for long months nobly upheld Britain's past traditions and the glory of her arms.
