Conditions which make it Of the
utmost Importance for Chapter
workrooms to follow exactly all in
structions from the Woman's Bu-
reau regarding the making of hos
pital and refugee garment; are the
subjects of the following statement
from Miss Florence Marshall, Direc-
tor of the Woman's Bureau, to all
Red Cross workers:
The Woman's Bureau recently
sent two representatives to France
to study the question of standard
izing hospital and refugee garments.
It was exceedingly important to
have detailed and authentic inform
alton SO that patterns could be is
sued for these garments to meet the
essential requirements of the va

Red Cross Salaries

La accordance with it's policy of
keeping the people Of the country
thoroughly informed on all its activ-
tiles, the War Council of the Ameri-
can Red Gross makes public sum
mary of salaries paid at National
Headquarters as of November !.
On that date there were 423 paid
employees, reduction of 63 in the
month. of October. There are now
80 volunteers at National Head
quarters who devote their entire
time to Red Cross work without re-
numeration. The salaries paid
were classified as follows:
Under $500, SIS; $500 but less
than $1,000, 1872; $1,000 but less
than s1,5oO, Sc; $500 but less
than $4,000, 33; $4,000 but less
than $4,000, 10; $4,000 but less
than $4,000, 6; $4,000 but less than
$4,000, 18; Over $4,000, 8.
Four months ago, there were 700
paid officers and employees at Ma
tional Headquarters. Since that
date the membership of the Ameri-
can Red Cross has been tripled and
the number of chapters doubled. In
spite of this enormous growth the
number of paid employees has been
decreased by PIT.
This reduction is due in part to
the decentralization of administra-
ton which has transferred much
routine work from National Head
quarters to the thirteen divisional
offices, whose pay rolls are not in
cluded in the above statement, and
in part to the readjustments at Ma
tional Headquarters.

More ardent than any other pa

any grown-up can be, are the chill

boys and school girls thing either
is, or it isn't. They don't split hairs
like their elders; they neither pussy
foot nor quibble nor have conscien-

1t is so when school children talk
about the war-as they all do.
They raise no futile questions of
whether it was right for America to
get into the war; they knew we are
right, because we are in. They
know that because we are in we are
going to win.
They talk about what their kin
and friends are. going to do to help
US win-of what will happen when
Big Brother Jim hits the Flanders
line; or of how Bill from across the
street or Tom from out in the
country, cousins it may be, will

They don't grumble. They boast
Of the taxes their fathers pay, Of
the sacrifices they make to buy lib
erty Bonds, of the sacks their moth
ers knit, and of the things left off
the table that the soldiers at the
front and the children Of France
may be fed.

refugee garments were approved
and adopted by the persons in
charge of the distribution in France.
The Woman's Bureau strongly
urges all workers to follow explicit
ly directions as issued from time to
time. Conditions are constantly
changing abroad, and all organiza-
tions and individuals must be ready
and willing to change their methods.
One who is unable or unwilling to
follow directions will be hindrarce
instead of help.
Issuing new direction or changes
does not mean that the old otes
were useless, but that improvements
have been worked out. When work
