'Why you should give twice as
much as you ever gave before!
The need is for a sum 70 greater than any gift ever
asked for since the world began. The Government has
fixed this sum at $170,500,000.
By giving to these seven organizations all at once, the
cost and effort of six additional campaigns is saved.
Unless Americans do give twice as much as ever before,
our soldiers and sailors may not enjoy during 1919 their:
3600 Recreation Buildings
1000 Miles of Movie Film
100 Leading Stage Stars
2000 Athletic Directors
2500 Libraries supplying 5,000,000 books
85 Hostess Houses
15,000 Big-brother "secretaries"
Millions of dollars of home comforts
When you give double, you make sure that every
fighter has the cheer and comforts of these seven organi
zations 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 with
him, heart and soul t
You have loaned your money to supply their physical
needs.
Now give to maintain the Morale thnt is winning the

Your boy comes stumb
ling out of the battle-line
He wants a place to rest, a place to get warm,
a place to smoke and get a hot drink and hear
somebody talk United States.
He sees a light ahead. It's a hut!
Do you think he cares whether, that hut is rim
by the Knights of Columbus or the Y. M. C. A,
Jewish Welfare Board or the Salvation Army?
Not much I He knows what he wants and he
knows that he'll get it whatever uniform the
folks inside happen to be wearing.
Your boy knows what real democracy means.
He's fighting to make it something bigger and
better and finer than it ever was before. He's the
world's greatest authority on democracy today.
Take his word for it I
Keep the hut fires
burning!
A hut is your fighter's home over there. It is
his store, his theatre, his church, his school and
his club.
It is the place where he writes your letters.
It is the place where he reads his books and
magazines, where he and his friends get around a
piano and sing or listen to a phonograph.
It is the place where all the movies are given,
and the concerts and the 'minstrel shows and
vaudeville. Often it is the only place within reach
that is dry and light and warm and clean.
A hut may be a shed or tent or a fine old
chateau or a hotel. Sometimes, at the front, it's
Hist a battered little shack the only building left
standing in town.
On the fighting line, it's just a board laid across
two boxes with a- sign nailed to a tree.
The sign doesn't matter it's what the hut
gives your fighter.
Back up these seven organizations without
thought of race or creed, because your boy knows
'that he is always welcome everywhere, and he
needs them all.
