Over there w Over here 
T HROUGH mud and rain, 
through gas and shrapnel, our 
boys are pushing on to Victory It’s 
a task that tries the souls of strong 
men. They must have rest and 
recreation. 
At the canteens, they buy the 
little comforts of life at cost. In the 
war-service huts, they find every- 
thing needful to write the letters 
you receive. They attend a show, 
see a “movie” or hear good music 
— all free. Always, they find in the 
hut secretary a friend. They for- 
get for a little while the grim scenes 
of war and return to duty refreshed. 
These are some of the things that 
keep fighting men at top notch. 
Y OURS is the task of growing 
the food these fighting men 
must have. T he toiling millions 
in the munition factories, arsenals 
and shipyards also look to you for 
sustenance. And they do not look 
in vain. 
Your work is vital to winning 
the war and you are doing it man- 
fully, mindful of Country, forgetful 
of self. You are working early 
and late, putting forth your strength 
unsparingly. You have produced 
bounteous crops that feed a hungry 
world. Yet to you are spared the 
comforts of home and the presence 
of loved ones. Yours are the privi- 
leges of earning and giving. 
Give to “keep good men good and brave men strong.” 
Give to bring cheer to those who are daring their 
all for you and yours. And when the boys come 
home victorious, you can honestly say, “I have done 
my part, too. I have backed you to the limit.”
