Many of us will be tempted to slack, just a little, in our efforts to beat the enemyv but we should realize, above all else, that a half- won battle needs twice the effort in order to insure a decisive victory. Our boys on the battle fronts could tell you which half of the struggle requires more exertion of power. NOVEMBER - 1944 Our nation is about to start a 6th War Loan Drive and every loyal citizen should assume as much of the responsi- bility of this drive as he is able. lt's not easy to part with 3518.75 when you're sure you haven't that much money, but isn't it better to do without that new dress, or shoes, or hat, or purse when you know that every bond brings our boys closer to home? Don't nod your heads affirmatively if you don't mean it. This is one time when spiritual support must be enforced with financial backing. Either you DON'T want a short war or you DO buy a bond or, at the least, a sizeable sum of stamps. No purchase in the sale is too small - every single I0-cent stamp counts - but make sure that the small purchase is the largest you can afford. We just can't say we want the war over and our boys home - we've got to pay their fare home. Buy That Bond Today! Support Your 6th War Loan Drive HIS MONTH - NOVEMBER - SEEMS TO BE the month of War Activities and this is the opportune time to announce the Red Cross Blood Bank Drive. Everyone who is physically able should participate in this drive. If you can't give blood why not send a substitute? No one has to be convinced that the Red Cross is doing a magnificent job on our battle fronts with plasma. What we do need to be re- minded of is that unless every able person gives a pint of blood, there will be a severe shortage of plasma and some G.I. Ioe may lose his life if he doesn't receive a transfusion on time. The Mobile Unit of the blood donor project will again set up a center in the First Methodist Church in Towson on November 21 from 1 p. m. to 4 p. m., and on November 22 from 1 p. m. to 7 p. m. , It is necessary for all persons under the age of 21 to have a blank signed by either one of their parents before they can be blood donors. Those blanks will be available in the Maine Oflice. Don't minimize the importance of these little war ac- tivities that we civilians participate in - every little bit helps to make one big united eFfort. 1
