United War Work Campaign 



AT the request of President Wilson, 

 seven great organizations who are 

 engaged in works of mercy among the 

 American soldiers and those of her 

 Allies, have combined in one United 

 War Work Campaign so as to better 

 carry on their work and to prevent 

 duplication of efforts, repeated requests 

 for funds, etc. These organizations are 

 the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., National 

 W^ar Work Council K. of C., Jewish 

 W'elfare Board, War Camp Community 

 Service, American Library Association 

 and the Salvation Army. Thcv are 

 holding a drive to raise $170,500,000, 

 beginning November 11th and lasting 

 until November 18th. 



It is of the utmost importance that 

 this sum be raised. Each of these or- 

 ganizations is doing a splendid work 

 for our soldier boys. They are amusing 

 and entertaining him when he is well, 

 caring for him when he Is sick, serving 

 him in the stress of battle, curing his 

 homesickness and increasing his morale 

 and encouraging him to be a better 

 soldier and a better man. They have 

 expended of their time, energy and 

 money to the utmost. The funds given 

 to them in the past are about exhausted. 

 \Vhile the amount that they have had 

 looks large, remember that it has to be 

 expended for the welfare of more than 

 four million boys — the amount for each 

 one is small and yet it is enough to 

 make every soldier happier and more 

 contented. 



The money has been and will be 

 wisely expended. The men engaged in 

 the field work are doing so at a great 

 sacrifice. It is a body of picked men, 

 men who in civil life could earn two 

 or three times the amount of money 

 that they will get for their services in 

 the army. All that they demand or 

 secure is just sufTicient to live upon. 

 The financial question asked a pro- 

 spective secretary is not "How much 

 salary do you demand?" but "How 

 much do you need to supplement your 

 fixed income, in order to live?" All the 

 money that you have given and will 

 give, minus a small portion for the 

 actual expenses for the men engaged in
