RED CROSS NE WS THE
l HOPE OF THE WORLD
By HAROLD BELL WRIGHT
The hope of the world is not alone
that the armies of humanity will be
victorious, but that the spirit and pur
pose of our warfare will prevail in our
victory. The hope of the world is in
the Red Cross, because the Red
Cross is voicing this spirit and pur
pose that must, through the force of
our arms triumph. Just to the de
gree that we can evidence this Red
Cross spirit of mercy and brotherhood
we will hold true in the dangerous
hour of victory to the ideals that have
forced us into the trenches in the de
fense of human rights and human lib
erty.
This one ane and saving thought
in this relirium of death that now pos
sesses the world is the Red Cross.
Wherever the storms of battle hell
rage, amid the fires of ruthless de
struction, in trench and camp and hos
pital, these soldiers of mercy with
heroism unsurpassed are carrying the
flag of the higest conceivable idea
of humanity. The ideals for which
our armies have taken the field are,
by these unarmed hosts, proclaimed
to friend and foe, in that unmistak
able language of universal mercy and
brotherhood. In the terms of the
wasted towns rebuilt, of broken hu
manity salvaged, of dying children
rescued, of desolate families succored,
the Red Cross declares the cause for
which we war and proclaims the prin
ciples and ideals that must and will in
the end prevoil. Above the thunder
of the guns, the road of exploding
mines, the crash of fallen cities and
the cries of tortured humanity, the
voice of the Red Cross carries clear
and strong the one message of hope
to our war-burdened world.
■.he ola r k horror o’ the world's
crisis would be unbearable were it not
for the spirit and work of this mighty
force. The normal mind refuses to
contemplate the situation without this
saving power.
It is the knowledge that in every
city, town and hamlet, men, women
and children are united in this work
of declaring to the world, through
the Red Cross, our message of mercy
„nd brotherhood, that keeps our hearts
from sinking under the burden of woe
and sustains our faith in human <lcd.
■ It is the constant daily, almost hour
ly touch with the Red Cross wn-'- -
•'? felt b - every citizen in 1 <
that in ~: r .s us with cmi.. o t
hope.
Out of this hell of slaughtei the Red
Cross will guide the warring nations
to a heaven of world-wide peace and
brotherhood.
Because it is the living expression
of those ideals and principles in de
fense of which we are giving our all
in lives and material wealth —because
on every field of death it is proclaim
ing its message of life—because it
keeps ever before us and the world
the cause for which we war—because
it will preserve us in the hour of vic
tory from defeating ourselves —the
Red Cross is the hope of the world.

SOUTHERN FARMERS
RAISING FOOD CROPS
ATLANTA, Ga May 21.—The South
will raise the greatest food crops in ita
history this year, unless very unfavor
able weather conditions interfere with
the program. The spring drive in
France and Flanders came just in
time to rouse the planters.
Cotton is being supplanted by po
tatoes, corn, rice, and other food
crops, in some places but a total cur
tailment of cotton out probably will
not be great.
Florida is producing about 50,000
carloads of foodstuff for shipment to
the north and west. W. G. McAdoo,
director general of railroads, has
promised to supply the 50,000 cars.
Tennessee, Arkansas, and Missis
sippi are increasing food acreage
from 25 to 50 per cent. Though many
of the farmers’ sons have gone to war,
the shortage of labor has been sup
plied in many cases by purchase oi
tractors and other farm machinery.
Six million acres of corn have been
planted near Memphis, Tennessee.
Mississippi farmers hope to raise 20,-
000.000 bushels of corn.
Late corn and potatoes were ob
jects of a special meeting of the Geor
gia Farmers’ Unon last week. Weather
conditions have been bad in Alabama,
but the state agricultural bureau
estimates the wheat crop at 87 per
cent of normal, compared with only
68 per cent last year.

TOKIO, May 21.—At 68 years of
age Mrs. Mine Matsumoto, mother of
a prominent Tokio exporting mer
chant does not believe that she is too
old to study. She has entered the
first grade of the Otsuma Crafts
school, Tokio, and intends to study
the English language and foreign
music. Mrs. Matsumoto enjoys un
usually good health and declares she
will live as long as Marqquis Ofluma,
Japan’s former premier and grand old
man who has set 125 years as his goal.
