AN ·,APPEAL~·

. . T HE BBCRUITING COMMITTEE OF~

Patriotic Association deem it necessary that the: King's subjects in Newfoundland should be made acquainted with the present condition of aff-tirs, and that, ·by a full knowledge of the need .. of E,npire,

• the_p;lt.riotism of the Colony nny be stimulated.

1 From the beginning of the \var now m-progress. voluntar~ enlistment has been the basis upon which have been built up the Naval and Military conrin· gents from Newfoundland. We have sent 1 soo men for the Navy and 3000 for the Army. Not L

few have been decorated (or bravery, and all h';lve sustain~d 'the highest traditions of the Empire and won for themselves and for the Colony undying' fame.

In the North Sea, on ili"e 1\tlantic, on trade routes and wherever duty has demanded, our Na­val volunteers have acquitted themselves with dis-. . . uncuon.

• Wherever_the Regin(ent has been called on tQ

discharge its duty .it has won·unstinted ps;aise.

' But more me n are needed to finish the work. to 'overwhelm the enemy, and secure the blessings of a lasting peace. We therefore appeal to the men of Newfouilliland to offer themselves for service

•and to rur;ish His Magesty the King ":ith a por­don of that help which the M-other Country deem nec:essa)'y to accomplish this result

' The obli~tifln rests upon us to furnish reserves to fill lhe ranksf and our comparative immunity from the cflnsequences of a state of war must not be al­lowed t , blind 'us to the stern need of more: men no'Nllone that victory may be !'ecured but tha t New­foundland's place in the Colonial Empire of Great Brilain may be assured. } t must not be said of us that the blood shed and the treasure expended have been in vain ; but if t~e response which is antici· pated be fully realized it wiU be bJazon<;d to thc:.,.re­motest dependency of the Crown that the bOa.st of this Colony has been well justified-most ancient and most loyal. •
