...Cross absorb about 70 percent of these contributions. This is a downright lie. Not one penny of the money contributed to war relief will be deducted for administration expenses. These expenses are very small, as a matter of fact, because 90 percent of the Red Cross workers give their services absolutely without charge, and the small necessary expenses are more than covered by the membership dues...
With the exception of the matchless Guynemer, no aviator has been better known to Americans than Major Raoul Lufbery, formerly of the Lafayette Escadrille. The names of even more successful fighters--Nungesser, Ball, and Bishop--fail to give the thrill that comes with the mention of Lufbery, the soldier of fortune and the incarnation of American dash and spirit.

It is to be noted, however, that but few of the places open to college men for the summer are of a clerical nature, the vast majority entailing labor of a heavier sort...
...repair of our Army and for the alleviation of all types of war suffering. It is in urgent need of money. These two facts constitute what must be an irresistible appeal to everyone. There is no student who cannot save enough for his contribution. The man who fails to give something, as much as he can, but at least something, is a slacker of the first order. These are plain words, but they represent a plain truth. We are living in a time which demands giving as long as one cent remains for man to give...
