P. Heard & Sons’ Store SUBSCRIBE TO THE RED CROSS America has played no part in the war which offers more material proof of its success than the work of the Red Cross agencies. Despite the few German lies which have been scatter ed, the Red Cross has Accomplished in an efficient manner a gigantic task. Its past record speaks for itself. It has formed the second line of defense of all the allied armies lit the field. Its army has been mobile. There has been no year of delay in getting it started. It has been a model of efficiency-and effectiveness. It Had a battery of motor ambu lances at the Piave front four days after the United States declared war on Austria. - t It is j supporting 50,000 French children. It sends supplies to 3,423 French military hospitals.' It shipped forty-six freight car loads of assorted supplies to Italy from France within two weeks after it began operating in Italy. It sorted a hundred different rem- * edial Activities* in Italy, whose result was to strengthen the spirit of the Italian people, at the. time when things were in tho most critical con dition. Without the American Red Cross thousands in Rumania would have starved to death. Without it thousands of French soldiers now gallantly fighting for us at the front would have died from wounds, exposure and lack of food. All this work will be continued to a large extent this year, and in addi tion will come the greater task of keeping alive in the heart bf the American soldier that spirit of the home which is a cardinal virtue in American life. - ‘' 1 The ideals of a nation must find their source in the homes of the peo ple. To the soldier in the front line or in the camp behind the line the Red Cross brings to him those things which his loved ones at home would if distance permitted. Though his busi ness may be- fighting, the American soldier must not bo permitted to live in blood alone, as does the German soldier, for blood alone means lust and crime. For these reasons the people at homec an not afford to refuse the funds which the Red Cross asks. The gifts to that services are the concrete expressions of fathers and mothers at home to their sons abroad and they mut shovf the faith of, a nation which is back of her defenders.
