- -THE  JEWISH WESTERN   gUla^ETlR ^^^^^ '
^ She survived a nightmare of cruelty and terror. Struggling against cold, star' vaiion and disease, she was unwanted, hunted, sick and weary almost unto death. Then your mercy—your generosity—brought a light of hope intq her miser-able world.   That light must not go out.
Thousands upon thousands of her people have been fed, clothed, and given shelter. Countless war-ravaged bodies have been mended. Families without number have been reunited and returned to their homes. Still others have been helped to find new lives in Palestine. Many who have found haven in America have re-
ceived aid in readjusting themselves. But the shadow of wctr fond oppression is deep and hard to erasel The wounds are far greater than anticipated and much slower to heal.
® Today, because of unforeseen circumstances, the number of Jewish displaced persons is three times as great as a year ago. These homeless Jews of Europe face another crisis in their bitter struggle to survive. Whether they live or die is squarely up to you ... jand your conscience. Because the task of mercy is so great, The Vancouver External Welfare Fund this year is asking for more help than ever be-
fore—$75,000—a sum that can be raised only through the utmost generosity and active support on the part of every Vancouver Jewish Citizen.
# In mercy's name, give all you can to the campaign of The Vancouver External Wei' fare Fund. Give more'^of your time, more of your heart, and more of your money than you can afford. No financial offering you can make, however great, can match the sufferings of those you help.
• Remember, you have given them hope. Now, you must not take it away. Hope is all they fjiaviB. You must not let the light of
hope go out.
