New Director General Of
Red Cross Military Relief

The appointment of John D. Ryan,
as director-general of military relief,
has been announced by Henry D. Davi-
son, chairman of the Red Cross war
committee. Mr.. Ryan succeeds Col
onel Jefferson R. Kean, U. S. A., who
has been recalled by the War Depart
ment from Red Cross service, and will
be placed in command of the 100 army
ambulance sections in France.
Mr.. Ryan is a well-known Catholic
of New York city, and one of the first
of the faith to occupy so prominent
an Office in the Red Cross. He has had
an extraordinary business career.
Starting from a clerkship in a small
store in the mining region of Michigan,
he has become president of the largest
mining company in the world. Mr..
Ryan's business interests are largely
in Montana. There he has lived and
still spends great part of his time.
1t is pointed out that he will, there
fore, be representative of the north
west in the great volunteer organiza-
ton now being perfected to carry out
the plans of the American Red Cross.
Mr.. Ryan's personal service will
supplement the already large contri-
buttons to the Red Cross by the cop
per companies in which he is inter-
ested. He is president of the Ana
conda Copper Company, which alone
declared a Red Cross dividend Of
$1,000 900.
Mr.. Ryan will supervise the Bureau
of Medical Service, the Bureau Of
Nursing Service, and the Bureau OF
Supplies, all of which arc concerned
in furnishing voluntary aid to the sick
and wounded of the United States
forces.

CATHOLIC BOY SCOUTS.

The Archbishop Of Philadelphia has
appointed the Rev. Daniel ]. DAILY Of
the Church of the Most Precious Blood
of Our Lord, that city, as spiritual d.
rector of movement to organize
troops of Boy Scouts, exclusively Cath
Ollie, under Catholic scout masters. The
boys are to be pledged to total abstin-
ence from all strong drink, and in each
parish a spiritual director is to be in
charge, who will appoint competent
scout masters. The military drill, so
popular now, is intended to attract
and hold the boys, and the lessons of
obedience and sobriety instilled into
them will serve to fit them for their
place in life as Catholic men.

REMEMBER

That advice is like castor oil, easy
enough to give, but hard enough to
take.
That it is not enough to keep the
poor in mind give them something to
keep you in mind.
That men often preach from the
housetops when the devil is crawling
III at the basement below.
That nature is rag-merchant who
works up every shred and art and end
into new creation.
That life's real heroes and heroines
are those who bear their burdens
bravely and give helping hand to
those around them.
That hasty words often rankle in
the wound which injury gives, and
that soft words assuage it, forgiving
cures, and forgetting takes away the
hurt.

CONCENTRATION CAMP WORK

At a committee meeting at knights
of Columbus clubrooms, Des Moines,
Iowa, it was decided to cooperate with
the national organization in the work
planned for the cantonment to be es-
tanlished in Des Moines, should such
arrangements meet with the approval
g. Bishop Bowling. The national or
ganization will work only at the camp,
and it was proposed to establish a
downtown place where our boys can
gather to rest, read, write or get any
information desired. Father Noonan
announced that nothing definite could
he done until the arrival of DR.. Kerby,
who has charge Of social work at the
cantonment. There will be about 49,
900 Catholic men at this camp, if the
divisions quartered there have the av-
eragc percentage of Catholics.
