It is our country's great opportunity to demonstrate not only its patriotism, but its higa ideals; and it is our one opportunity to take some small part in alleviating the suf- fering the war has brought on these innocent people. “Threse women will orsanize their friends into little bands and stand on every street corner, in front of every office building, and railroad station, every theatre, and, if necessary, make a house to house canvass in every city and town in the country: also the Belgian flags are to be sold for the small sum of seven cents to help the cause.” Let us Sisters of The -Corner raily to help the cause.
