TIE. STATE RED CROSS MEET
That Showed Something of the Great
Work Being Done.

The state Red Cross meeting held
iii Jackson last week was indeed a
large gathering of the faithful. earn
est workers who are doing all they
can to make the sick 8, wounded or
needy soldier feel that he is loved and
cared for. and that the people at
home appreciate the sacrifice he is
making. There were prominent lead
erS in the movement on hand who
went into detail about the proceed
ure. Every step was discussed and
almost every feature or phase of the
work WAS explained. 1t therefore
seemed. after having heard these
speakers, almost impossible for the
local organizations not to know what
TO do with every problem OF the work
time. One striking feature OF the
meet was the absolute forgetfulnesS
of self As shown by the delegates in
attendance and their intelligent zeal
and efforts to do all that could be
done in the way OF Red Cross work
A very large per cen of the dele
gates We're women. And another
feature worthy of tote is the fact
that the delegates were not those
women who are fond of parading up
and down the country, seemingly for
getful of the cares and obligations
that they should have at home even
if they are without them.
Mayor Il. r. Thomas was on hand
from Grenada county and took a live
interest in all the procedure. The
