know how the first step is taken, or
who takes II, or what he does next.

when news of the disaster began to
triekle from the telegraph wires to the
newspapers. Offices and shops were
closed, and Chicago had gone home to
Its dinner and its Saturday evening
relaxations. The first word to the Red
Cross of the storm came through a
Chicago paper 20 Charles Lee Bryson
of the central division staff of the
Red Cross. One Of the editors called
Mr.. Bryson at his home and told him

Red Cross would want TO get on the
