THE RED CROSS.

The late war has been the cause of the
DEVELOPMENT of many societies for the relief
of the soldiers
Our women have come forward nohly
and been unrcmitting in their efforts to
alleviate the suffering of our men in camp,
field and hospitals: relief societies have
been formed in every state and almost
every town. The work has been somewhat
new to our southern women, but they have
accomplished a great amount of good.
What would have become of our wounded
and sick in our hastily improvisod hospitals
when waiting for government supplies had
Il not been for our women who We're al
ways ready to supply towels bed linen,
haGda@cs ana nouTishmont for the sick?
From the National Relief Society have
sprung many state organzat ions which
have done good work.
Many of our readers. in reading of these
relief societies, nave asked many questions
about the Red Cross. and we are very glad
to be able to give them an article full OF
Information on the subject sent by one
OF our correspondents. and We would like
- extend orr thanks to her for it. We
are sur" that but few OF our readers have
ever before been 50 we'll informed on this
subject and We feel that it viii be read

papers about Miss Clara Barton and the
Red Cross Society? 1t seems to be a sub

ignorant, though | suppose that is owing
to Cur being only recently admitted to the
federation However, We cannot be ac-

They, too. havo heard the drum beat,
They follow the bugle's call;
These who are swift with pity
On the field where brave mon fall.
When the battle Boom is silent
And the echoing thunder dies,
They haste to the plain red-Sodden
Vita the blood of sacrifice.
The flag that floav above them
Is marked with a crimson sign,
Pledge of a great companion
And the rifted heart divine.
That once for a mans redemption
Knew earth's completest loss
These to the field of valor
Bring loves immortal cross.
And so they follow the bugle,
And heed the drum-beat call,
But their errand is one of pity
They succor tho men who fall.
