Each young mantis lit through rigid tests, not as t,o his physical stamina alone. .Jnit also his emotional and mental qualities io"r 'th$ Hrtlu-ous life. of the armed forces. Many men who would be accepted on physical grounds, we understand, arc rejected for emotional and mental attitudes toward life. Not that there is serious mental disorder in so j many of our young men, but the very nature of thi 1 war is such that psychiatrists tell us emotional and j 8 mental efficiency is just as important as physical j fitness. The soldier today is different from a civilian, and is made so by virtue of his training. It is a private soldie act. I appm recog readvi other opera 's war, and he must know when and where to e must know his own value as a fighter and late that value, while at the same time fullv nzing the value of his comrade, being ever to defend his pals as he defends himself. In ; words, he must be able to co-ordinate and co-e with others to the full. If a voting man can not lose his identity in the group, and co-operate with his pals even to the sacrifice of his life, hetias not the mental attitude that will enable himiMbe a worthwhile soldier. When a young man leaves home and joins the force; he has already fought some battles in his think ng, and has won them. For example: He has 1 put a new evaluation upon himself, and upon his life, j and u prepared to discount any sense of self-import-' ance le possessed, any craving for comfort or per- j sonal convenience, and is willing to lay down his j life if need be in the cause to which he has commit- ted himself. It it not every young man who can make J such adjustments even though he may have good; physical health. It does us. civilians good to squarely j face the readjustments our brave lads must make j to life as the.v leavo home and go forth to fight on i foreign soil for our security and peace. ort nnown on every nana lor Hardly a tamily but knows of instances where it has done good in peacetime and i hardly a family but hears from some war zone abroad of its wonderful ministerings. i The important thing this year, then, is not to sell ' you on the work the Red Cross is doincr at home and : m the battle zones as well as in the field of contact- i ing and helping care for prisoners of war, but to remind you to double your membership contribu-: tion, for the job to be done is much bigger. !

They will lite to fight again, because we helped them when they needed our support. The wounded must have immediate care. The surgical supplies, the blood serum, the hospital equipment that spell life to them, mujt be ready on the spot. And wc must keep the spark of hope burning in the hearts of the boys who once fought for us gallantly.but now arc helpless, behind enemy prison gates. Hcd Cros food parcels must reach our men regularly, to give them'ourishrotnt and hope. Civilian need i arc urgent, too. Food for the children of oppressed areas in Europe, help for the ho'meless, crippled children of Britain and emergency nursing care ... all these must be provided by one means, the Red Cross.
