A BEGINNING
LONG PATIENT ARDUOUS OFFENSIVE
AN APPEAL TO HOME-STAYERS. (Rec. Julv 17, 1.20 -p.m.) * LONDON, Jitly 16. llel McKeima in a letter states he .s glad that War Savings Week has been chosen for a date when the thought of the nation fs directed across the Channel where they are making the greatest military effort in our history. It would not be a battle of a few days, but the beginning of a long, patient, arduous offensive, demanding from the soldiers heroic exertions and nnimagin= able sacrifices. Are we home-stayers content to be mere spectators of the greatest financial effort in our history ? Extravagance and waste is treason. In= difference is a crime. Exchequer bonds are heavy artillery and smaller T?onds equal rifles and grenades.
