ORGANIZED. HuMANTTARIANfSM

Hardly had the news of the earth
lquake III Southern Italy flashed
across the sea when the Red Cross
society rushed into activity in behalf
OF the human beings injured or ruin
ell, Ii was just like the Red Cross
society TO do that. for ii is the or
gained humanitaranism of the
world II is the heart OF mankind
wrought into yigilant and widely
ramified system 1t is charitable
ness and sympathy and encourage
ment embodied in energetic agencies.
Panoplied ready and tender it hur-
ries to the front whenever there
comes that one touch OF nature to
make the whole world kin.
The Red Cross society does not
specialize in its labors. Its mission
aries go upon battlenelhs. into plague
spots, into hospitals, into flooded dis
tricts, into earthquake wrecked com.
mrnities in any and every climate
Its purpose is TO succor mankind,
and wherever mankind is, there the
society pursues its loving endeayors.
One of the most glorious expires
sions OF brotherly love is this or
CARRIED body. and one OF the most
useful Based upon the richest sent
ment it labors on most practical
lines. Therein 4ies the effectiveness
OF its work: its tenderness is not
squandered nor its funds misspent.
There is no more democratic or

Cross society, for nothing could be
more democratic than a society
founded upon the principle of the
brotherhood of man And so, to il
and its agents, kings and paupers are
but fellowbeings and its miuistra-
items are to all alike.
During the holiday season Ameri.
cans generally were called upon to
pl rchase Red Cross Christmas
stamps. The stamps were a device
to raise funds for merely one branch
Of the Red Cross work-the subiuga

society is in itself an exhibition of
the spirit of charity and good will
among men, the support given the so
cietys work by the millions of per
sons who bought the stamps was
even more decisive demonstration.
for while the one may be due to the
leadership OF a few, the other was
the deed of the masses of the popula-
tion. The buying OF stamps was
notable in its universally. aad the
moor person who gave his single
