Show THE "GHOST" THAT CAME BACK TO MAIN STREET Maybe you called him Mike, or Joe or Butch. When he toppled over into the mud, shattered by an enemy shell, they practically gave him up for lost. But the medics' care and half a dozen pints of blood plasma kept him alive at the front. And a lot more whole blood and expert" surgery finally put him on his feet again. Mike, or Joe or Butch never expected to see Main Street again. There's a lump in his throat as he walks along. When you've almost died, the simplest things bring tears to your eyes . , . kids skipping rope, an old dog, the battered sign over the barber shop. There are many "ghosts" who walk the land todaymen to-daymen with your blood flowing in their veins. And they can't thank you because they don't know who you are and you don't know who they are. Look at it this way any man who came back may be alive because of YOU. Any one of thousands of wounded men joyously alive may owe his life to the blood you have given or will give. What a fine, good feeling it is to know that you have helped pre- serve the miracle of life. Why not give your blood next Wednesday that a man may live? WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT PINT OF BLOOD YOU WERE GOING TO GIVE?
