REFUGIO TIMELY REMARKS
THURSDAY, APRIL 30, 1942
SSSSSgggSS^
m

You and Istand in solemn tribute to the courage
and heroism of its defenders.
Human consolation and sympathy to their loved
ones—to those they left behind—can not quiet
the dull throb of loneliness or mend the broken
hearts—or bring fragrance to homes of desola-
tion.
They died because they believed in America,
because they believed in you and me, because
they believed their death would not be in vain.
We are asked merely to give a little money. Think
upon the comparison of this with their sacrifice
of blood and life! We must, by means of our con-
tributions, relieve the anxiety of our sailors and
marines about the folks back home—over a wife
with child—relieve their concern over a sick son
or daughter—their fears because of an invalid
or impoverished mother—tlieir apprehensions
over what will happen to their families if they die
in battle.
This anxiety will be relieved in the response of
Texas to the Navy Relief Society. You and I will
send the message to them wherever they are.
