To Those Who Feel Poor By Henry Van Dyke. I write as your brother. We are a large family. This world war, made in Germany, against which we are fighting, has sent our incomes down and our expenses up. The pinch hurts, but it is not going to kill us. We still have enough and something to spare. Though we feel poor, don't let us be impoverished by selfish fear! Let us save in food, in service, in clothes, in luxuries and joy-rides - but not in money! Let us use that by giving it to save the wounded, the suffering, our friends, our country. Let us keep Christmas this year by keeping up Red Cross. Then it will not be a poor Christmas, but a rich Christmas to our hearts. The Northfield campaign for new and renewal members will be from 2 to 4 p.m., Sunday, December 23. Opportunity to ally yourself with the Red Cross will be afforded all next week at the booths in the business district.
