That the money ma be safely forwarded and wisely expended by the proper officials In Italyit is particularly desirable that all contributions from Massachusetts to this cause bo sent to the treasurers of this one central fund. Let us give, freely, that food, clothing, shelter and medical aid may be provided for the men, women and children. who have lost their all in this frightful disaster. From Italy tos all the world came the revival of learning and the renaissance.

To Italy we still owe a great debt for music, art, poetry and all that makes for the beautiful In our daily life. In Cato, Brutus and the Roman virtues that they typified, the leaders; of our revolution, the leaders of every people struggling to be free, have found Inspiration for their cause. "Bis dat qui cito dat," he gives twice who gives quickly. The world's universal appeal for help for those in trouble was framed nearly two thousand years ago by an Italian. May the proverb not fail the land that gave It birth.
