Image description

Artwork possibly by H.H. Green. Printed by Mason, Firth And McCutcheon Ltd, Australia. A child kneels before her mother, praying. A bed and a portrait of an Australian soldier are in the background. The image is flanked by two small depictions of biplanes. A poem is arranged below and superimposed over a red and white vertically striped background. The poem reads: MY SOLDIER Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep. God bless my brother gone to war Across the seas, in France, so far. Oh, may his fight for liberty, Save millions more than little me From cruel fates or ruthless blast, And bring him safely home at last. SEVENTH WAR LOAN BUY BONDS
