A VOICE FROM AMERICA. [To THIS EDnos Or TIM "Srscr■roat.-]
SIR,—I enclose herewith a post office order for one pound. The money was sent to me by a friend living in Knoxville, Tennessee, and I venture to quote from her letter as follows:--.
"I feel concerned and deeply worried over the war situation, as every reading and thinking person should be. All those just returned to whom I have been talking agree that England is fighting our battles—that we are next. I think each one should help England in whatever way is possible. At present, of course, we may not do it as a country, yet I believe, if the time comes, our people will demand to help. Anyway, the little I have to give I should like to go direct. If one give here to the Red Cross, it may go to Germany. I am enclosing a cheque which please use in any way you wish—if its a mite to the War Fund, it makes no difference to me, just so it helps England,"
May I ask that you will forward the money to such fund as, in your opinion, will best meet her wishes P—I am, Sir, &c., J. H. Ex's.
Louisvale and Nashville Railroad Company, Louisville, K.
[We have forwarded the pound sent by our correspondent to the Y.M.C.A., because we believe that at the moment he who helps the soldier is best helping England, and because we believe also that no help is more efficient than that rendered to the soldier by the Y.M.C.A.—Eo. Spectator.]
