coming Christmas Roll Call is draw
ing people’s thoughts to the Red
Cross and the work, it ia doing, the
following very clear expooition of
the meaning and aims of the Amer
ican Red Cross by the Rev. Eugene
L. Hill is of more than ordinary in
terest;
The metaphysician, in his study,
recognizes five causes; and^ unde:
these suggestive hesds the work and
life of the Red Cross- may be con
veniently considered. The material
cause of the Red-Cross is the money
necessary to carry on the work.-’llie
formal cause embraces the various
ministries to which the movement
lends itself, such as the present war
relief work. The instrumental cause
would include food, clothing,' band
ages, stretchers, ambulances, and all
other visible forms by which the Red
Cross spirit expresses itself. The
efficient cause is the spirit of broth
erhood, which gave birth to the
movement and impelled such match
less spirits of Florence Nightingale
and Henri Durant to give themselves
to the relief of human suffering.
The essence of the Bed Cross is
not, to he found' in the knitting of
socks and the preparation of band-
a(tear for these are but the expression
of the. great soul that U within this
movement.
- God gave to man the soul of the
Red Cross when He-mnde a human
being; end tbe Muster Teacher gars
Himself to the redemption of this
spirit when He called upon bin fol
lowers to follow in His footsteps,
who came “not to be ministered un
to, but to minister and to give him
self a ransom for many.”
