In most cases the contributions were not as large as looked for, but very few re- fusals have been met with. If New Britain is to do her part, and hold out the proud record she has made In war work, it will be necessary for people to increase very materially the sub- scriptions they plan {o give. The old cry is that they have given until it seems as though there was no end. So has everybody else got the same excuse, and if everyone took that view of it these poor people will simply starve. One thing is certain, that now the v is over, this will probably be the st call for war work funds, and it behooves everyone to turn in and do their share. It looks very much as though the end of the road was in sight as far as war wark giving goes. There is one feature about this cam- paign which will make people feel particularly like giving. No money is to be expended on the work of man- aging the campaign, but it is a 100 per cent. relief.
