This year, in view of the greater need, it is earnestly and, conï¬dently hoped that Ontario's contributions will be as great proportionately as the magniï¬cent offering of last year. Our trust is, that the Citizens of Ontario will give generously to this noble cause onâ€"â€" “ 1] Canada fails as in October, we'must curtail many of our activities.†Sir ARTHUR STANLEY, Chairman, Executive Committee, British Red Cross.
