Can you imagine your son, your brother or your neighbor in France two years after the end
of the great war?
Letters from home come slowly and they are but a poor consolation at best for being away
from home. There is nothing for them, now that the fighting has ceased, but the monotonous
round of guard duty and drill, if you take away the theatres, the moving picture shows, the ath-
letic tournaments, the recreation huts, and all the other splendid institutions of the Y. M. C. A.,
" the Knights of Columbus, the Jewish Welfare Bo ard, the Y. W. C. A., the Salvation Army and the
American Library Association.
These Institutions have done wonders in keeping up the morale of the American soldier dur-
ing the War. Do you want their work to cease with the fighting? Do you want them to leave the
American soldier with no recreation,-to leave him friendless and forsaken in France?

2500 Libraries supplying 5,000,000 books
85 Hostess Rouses
15,000 Big-brother "secretaries"

When you give double, you make sure
that every fighter has the cheer and com-
forts of these seven organizations every
step of the way from home to the front and
back again. YOU provide him with a
church, a theatre, a cheerful home, a store,
a school, a club and an athletic field-and
a knowledge that the folks back home are

Do not forget that it has taken a year and a half to get two-million soldiers to France-it may
easily take two years to get them back. The magnificent work of these organizations MUST
continue until the last American soldier is home again.
Subscribe now to the Fill-the-Flag Campaign to raise money for these war organizations-
subscribe fully and generously. Your duty is not accomplished with the winning of the War-
you must do your part in bringing our boys home, strong, self-reliant and of high moral char-
acter.
Support this Campaign with your money, and urge your friends to support it.
