0 w £ vk' c\ ; \ r* t </ 90 God who made us mighty, make us mightier yet OTAGO is the land of hope and glory our boys left behind : th« Otago they are fighting to return to . . . dying so that others may return. Dying that we may remain freer These fighting men think of a peaceful Otago . . . rolling hills, lakes, rustling trees, and green meadows. They remember the love and happiness of homes they once knew and hope to know again. Giving mere money for Patriotic purposes is not too much to do to help speed the Victory and speed them home to Otago—their LAND OF HOPE AND GLORY. It"s tough oil right •• • We who stay at home are tempted at times to remark: "This Patriotic giving is tough." No, it isn t tough. It IS tough being away from home for two to five years ... it IS tough dodging " flak" over Germany. It IS tough dodging flying bombs in Englarid. It IS tough herding convoys on raging seas. It IS tough in Italy and the Pacific. We dkr@ mot with any measure of seriousness, associate the word " tough " with patriotic giving. , LET’S GET ON WITH THE JOB Let us go forward together, then, and give the £7s,ooo—Otago s quota for 1945. Lets get the money in quickly—within the next two months. Otago—OUß FIGHTERS' LAND OF HOPE AND GLORY, will do its share willingly, smilingly, and quickly.
