JUDGE, Art Print Dept. 225 Filth Avenue, New York City When Belgium Four years ago the Belgian Army, war-worn and weak in numbers, con- fronted the Germans on the Yser. From Liege to the last narrow strip of their country they had resisted the invaders inch by inch, glorious even in retreat. At the Yser the Belgians performed a signal service to the Allied cause by holding the Germans while the gaps were being closed in the Franco-British line to the rear. Four years have passed, and the same nations are still at death grips emmed the Tide along the Western front. America, too, is there, and has this opportunity because the Belgians kept the enemy from crossing the Yser long ago. The same unfaltering courage, the same inspiration for sacrifice in our army abroad and in our citizens at home will give us victory. The complete mobilization of the whole people is necessary and the telephone service has an increasingly important part in speeding the national , effort. More than 12,000 members of the Bell System are in military service. Those that remain at home must fill the gaps and do their utmost, with the co-opera- tion of the public,. to help win the war.
