HEAD RED CROSS WORKER
SPEAKS AT THE FORUM

The gathering at the Minneapolis
Forum on last Sunday was one that
the race is proud Of The large at
tendance was due to the fact that
Mrs. Horace Lowry, head of the Red
Cross work, was to speak Mrs. Low
ry gave a most interesting and in
structive review of the necessity and
distribution Of Red Cross supplies.
She dwelt at length ON its great aid
to the soldiers at home and abroad
and paid a glowing tribute to the sac
ritices made by those who are making
possible the needs and comforts of the
soldiers. There were times when her
recital Of the sufferings of women,
made destitute by war and their noble
spirit of self-denial and perseverance,
brought tears to many eyes. Mrs.
Lowry told of the value of our women
In the Red Cross work and gave them
much valuable information and en-
couragement. She is one of our
wealthiest women, who is working
hard to make the Minneapolis chapter
a credit to our country. Her talk was
one worthy of any audience, and so
inspired her hearers that a vote of
thanks and resolution was unani-
mously passed pledging the support or
the Forum to Red Cross work by
Chas. Sumner Smith, who was called
to respond by Pres. Jeffrey on behalf
Of the Forum. Mrs. Lowry showed her
deep interest in our boys and we are
fortunate in having in her a woman
worthy Of our respect and confidence.
The committee on Red Cross work.
appointed by Prs. jeffrey was: Chair
man, Chas. Sumner Smith; Martin
Brown, Mrs. Mary E. Pope, Mrs. Fan
ME Pierre, S. G. Franklin. They be-
gan solicitations and several dollars
were donc ted. DR.. r. s. Brown is the
treasurer, and donations will be re-
ceived at his office Reports of donors
will be published in the Star.
Miss Eva B. Walker and John H.
Hickman, Jr., appeared IN the pro-
gram. The meeting was the beginning
of our support of worthy cause and
a grand success. ~,
