Lebanon students and officials: l want you all to know that l miss you. l live in hopes that this war will soon be over and we can all enioy the comforts of peace once more, however, for these comforts hardships must be endured. Here are a few challenges I want you to accept without reservation: l. Give of your blood. lt may save someone out on the battlefield who is shedding his blood that we might live and have life more abundantly. 2. Buy stamps and bonds. By so doing you will save money, as well as a priceless heritage. 3. Sacrifice NOW. Be conservative in your liv- ing so that all can live an abundant life in peaceful days. 4. Collect that scrap to slap the Icrp. 5. Pray to God for cm early VICTORY so we car all return to our loved ones. Good luck and happy adventures to all. Victori ous days await us. Sincerely, A. R.
