Explanation Of Statement at Rec
Cross Convention.


Explanation Of Statement at Red
Cross Convention.
Dr. John c. Wise, speaking of a pub
lished report of remarks made by him at
recent Red Cross convention, informs
The Star that an impression Is conveyed
by that report which is not justified.
Il stated" DR.. Wise explains, that
need Of the American National Red Cross
was that 1t should be democpatized-that
is, that its beneficent works should be
brought to the attention Of all the people
of this country. This is the earnest de-
sire of the American National Red Cross,
that all shall participate in and aid in the
splendid work it is doing. That this Is not
the case today is due to the fact that
the present organization is comparative
ly new and that its means are limited.
AT this time it is proposed to carry.
by the means of special agent, the
stands alike for the relief of the sick
and wounded in war, as well as for the
victims OF the catastrophes Of peace, and
In this noble work. so amply exemplified
in the last few years, it earnestly asks
the cooperation Of every one in our coun-
try:
Il intended In what said to convey the
idea that we did not have the member
ship which the wealth and population Of
our country would justify, and that other
countries with smaller population and
more meager resources are doing more in
the cause Of humanity than we are.
THE report in regard to Maj. Lynch's
statements are misleading-his position
was that the medical department of the
army is not equal to the demands upon
1t, and not that the Red Cross was
wholly inefficient to render effective serv-
ice.'
1.-The statement that the Red Cross
work in the United States Is done in g.
diletante way is absolutely disproved by
the generous appreciation given the work
Of the American Red Cross in the recent
London conference"

EARLY SHOPPING THE RULE.
Residents Are Buying Their Christ
mas Goods Early This Year.

Washington merchants are gratified to
usual are taking time by the forelock and
doing their Christmas shopping before
the big rush and while the choice Is still
great.
1t would seem an inevitable conclusion
that shoppers who had year after year
struggled through Christmas crowds and
emerged flushed and painting, with per-
haps only a part of the things they had
intended to purchase, would learn by ex-
perience and avoid the next year what
they had gone through the year before.
In many cases, 1t is true, the burnt child
breads the fire, but it SO happens that
human nature is endowed with mysteri-
Gus tendency to procrastination and a
willingness to let the morrow take care
OF itself. 1t Is only in that way that the
merchants can explain to themselves sat-
isfactorily the sacrifice which many per-
sons apparently make of their own COM
fort and well-being by plunging into the
Christmas Shopping fray at the very last
minute. when the crowds surge about the
counters. and the best of everything has
already been purchased and carried away
by the frstcomers.
Conditions are improving this year, how
ever, and already the shops which have
their Christmas goods ready for their
customers find they are filed with FORE
handed buyers, who realize that they are
getting the best of the game from every
point by coming early and getting a
chance to select at leisure from a stock
not yet depleted by the inroads of other
providept purchasers.
That the Christmas crush is something
TO 5 be- avoided Is being brought home
every year more and more forcibly.
