RED TRIANGLE DAY.

Ever-increasing demands call for additional funds to support the service of the V.M.C.A. to ou,r soldiers. Th* people of New Zealand have now" ar opportunity of testifying ■to the excel-' lent work which the Young Men's Christian • Asociatio'n is doing for the men on active service, "ihey will moreover, be practically assisting i:that same good work, tiie value of which is no longer in doubt. There may have been some before the war *ho were indited to "tolerate" the i.Ai.C.A. as "gooay-goody" : they rave now been converted. The Young Men's Christian Association has proved its solid work in every military camp m the Empire. It has been the practical Christianity which lias attended to tbe ...comfort of tha soiclier, physical, mental and spiritual. ;

The ited' Triangle has been the symbol of assistance to the soldier in every' camp. If there is ore tiring upon which New Zealand is determined, it is that-everything possible shall be done for the men who are fighting in our defence. Even then, we can never repay them. Tre V.M.C.A. is doing its best to attend to the wants of the soldiers. The work calls for moro funds. The people of the Dominion car: help/ largely "in removing embarrassment. JThey can, the same time, publicly acknowledge the value of the work wiich the YiM.C.A. is doing. Both /can be achieved by contributing to the funds of the V.M.C.A. on lied Triangle Day.
