The Red Cross society is
of the greatest auxilaries to the
present war eyer known. With
out it all the loss of life in battle
would be appaling. Many ate
the soldier lads that will be eo
abled to return home by reason
of proper bandages used in case
of wounds; also the many knitted
articles that are being made to
protect their health during the
cold weather. Who is doing this
great work—Red Cross ladies
here and in every city and ham-
let in the United States, and they
are assisted by the noble men
who are contributing as much
money as their finance will per*
mit. Giying until it hurts is only
a slight token of patriotism in
proportion to what our boys are
giving in order to protect our
homes and eventually bring about
nation-wide peace.
