THE WAR SEAL FOUNDATION.

TJio cry of the disabled in the service of your country and your home will soon be heard throughout the land. You will bo told that work will bo .found for them. Blit remember. that tens of thousands wni be unable to work, .They will have been incapacitated from- either learning or practising a trade. They will have nothing but a small pension or allowance upon, whielf to live. Will you help those men and their dependents? With your help their pensions may be made to provide good living and personal service in a good home. You will enable pensions and allowances to be expended' in retail purchases at wholesale prices. You will help to organize mutual aid and co-operation in the production of a standard of living winch small means expended along independent channels could not oossibly provide. You will create capital which is to bo invested without interest for their benefit. Apart therefore from the benefits of co-operation and limited .profit sucli as arc afforded bv an institution like the Guinness Trust you will, iu buying war seals, provide money for use without interest, and in so doing really add an amount equal to interest to the already increased spending power of the- pensions and allowances. Your help may bo given easily; merely by scaling your letters with a -M war seal. Whenever you write a letter place a war seal on the back of the envelope. You will thereby close your letter securely, perform a kindly action and do your duty towards the men who have fought and hied for you. Whenever you receive a letter closed with a war seal make it your business and a duty to seal your reply in the same way. Tell your friends to do so, too. Give your best attention to all the letters whether business or private which are sent to you bearing the Disabled Servil e War Seal; tor the senders are both kind-hearted and thoughtful. Universal adoption of the war seal during the next few months will pay the country’s debt to the men “broken in our war.” War seals can. be had .at all booksellers. Miss Rees, M.A. (Cook County College) is the local agent.
