ill Cross Campaign DAY APPEAL. PLEASE NOTE—This open letter is intended for residents of Hamilton who have not yet subscribed to this special (OUR DAY) effort and for those who, although they have already responded to the call of humanity, feel that the worthiness of the cause goes out to them to do more. If you have already doneyour part, I thank you, and would ask you to please pass this message along to someone who has not.—J.A.Y. TO THE RESIDENTS OF HAMILTON Hamilton, Odober, 1918 Ladies and Gentlemen, Some time ago an appeal came to the Waikato to raise £25,000, to help the Red Cross. We know we have, since the war sorted, given money on a scale that was never dreamed of before. Some of us may even think that we have done our fair share in a financial way but let us here and now face the truth in all its terrible reality. The war is testing nations. It is testing individuals and bringing home to all the need for the searching of hearts, and in fact is revealing the true charader of men and women. To assure that our civilisation, our Empire, our home life and identity as a free people shall not be trampled under the heel of the oppressor, it is the supreme duty of everyone to realise that as units they must give every assistance, moral and material, to enable our soldiers to win the war, and to sustain them in the tremendous efforts which they are putting forth. The Beys in the Line are the bulwark between us, here in safety, and the degradation, horror and misery which would come upon us should the Hun succeed by any want of effort on our part in anticipation of an early peace To-day the First Lord of the Admiralty. Sir Eric Geddes, says :—" Britain is determined to continue the war and not to divert from her purpose until the Allies have secured the only peace which could justify all our terrible sufferings caused by the iniquity of Germany." That indicates the character of the British Nation and the evil thing, "the iniquity of Germany," which it is fighting and paying so much in blood and treasure to destroy. Our brave Boys from N.Z. are steadfast in their purpose to carry on unlil the right kind of peace is secured. We can place no measure on the extent of their sacrifice. They are doing their part It is for us to carry on and do cur part. For this Cause we have shewn ourselves ready to give more than our money—our own flesh and blood—but having given, it is our solemn duty to stand by them. Can there be any limit to our giving of money to care for our own in their hour of trial ? That is the question. At every Front the Red Cross is a mother to our wounded, sick, and convalescent soldiers. Its service even reaches to those lads who become prisoners of war in the hands of the enemy, and to them it regularly sends parcels of food, clothing, and other comforts. The Red Cross Society depends upon voluntary giving for its existence, and to-day it is calling urgently for your financial help. The Hamilton proportion of the £25,000 has been set down as £B,OOO. At the moment we are more than £2,700 behind. The Committee is loath to make a house to house canvass, and has directed me to send cat this final appeal to ill those who have not already subscribed. As no words of mine are necessary to impress upon you the noble and humane service which the Red Cross is rendering our sick and wounded soldiers, I have no hesitation in asking that contributions be sent in at the earliest possible moment Thanking you in anticipation, J. A. YOUNG. c Chairman.

DO YOU SUFFER FJIOM GOUT?

Has Gout got you in its grip? Do you suffer from Rheumatism, Sciatica, Lumbago, or Rheumatic Gout? Perhaps you have bought liniments, plasters, and embrocations, largely advertised pills or cure-alls, which claim to cure every ailment, including Rheumatism, ami found that although they brought temporary relief, the old trouble soon returned. Nov.-, in fairness to yourself, give RHEU3IO a trial. RHKTTMO will not cure any and every trouble, but it' seldom fails to cure Rheumatism, Gout, Sciatica or Lumbago. All these diseases have the one cause—excess uric acid in the blood, duo to various reasons, of which the failure of the kidneys to do their work is one. You cannot be cured until the excess has been removed. RHKUMO does so, and is the one medicine that usually cures quickly and effectually. Chemists and stores, 2s Gd and 4s Gd.
