A Raemaekers Poster Famous Dutch Artist's remorseless | 3 exposure of German inhumanity in'B Belguim. i Louis Raemaekers, the famous § Dutch Cartoonist, has generously J for the National Committee for Relief 8 in Belguim one of the most remark- | - able and certainly the most heart rending of all the "War Posters."

A 'Belgium [& woman, with a-ragged 1ed cloak over E her shoulders, is holding tightly to [& her breast an infant in a shawl Around the child is clasped the mother's hand--a hand which spells starvstion. In the womans face there. g is the infinite sorrow of motherhood | i driven to dispair by German inhu- manity, and the pitiful, helpless yearn- ing to relieve the child's suffering. But itis in the face of the child [§ that Raemaekers has told the full H harror of the tradegy of Belguim : The staring terror in the eyes that|i look up at the mother: makes one |g shudder and turn away to 'think what | might have been in England. With |H remorseless realism Raemaekers, in | this infant of pain, has visualised 'to bl the world the infamy of Germany. The poster, which is artistically |g reproduced, has thé laconic heading | # "In Belguim," Underneath, appears |} the one word "Help." | Any reader of this newspaper' can secure. a copy | | ; | Go Ey Big Value Easter Price $4.95 Six months ago we opened our doors to the public of Port Perry and vicinity.
