When women complain of weariness

accept these troubles as their lot be-

"SHE OF HER WANTS, HATH
CAST IN ALL THAT SHE HATH
(From Mondays Daily

(From Mondays Daily
Durango has an example OF sacri-
flee for Red Cross work that prob
ably no other city in the United
States or in the world can equal.
Acting in accordance with the re-
quest of the President that every
| minister in the United States explain
the Importance Of providing funds
for the Red Cross, Rev. Father White
pastor of st. Columba's devoted a
portion of his morning address yes
terday to emphasize the organiza-
| tons needs. He pictured the deplor-
| able condition of the people for whom
our donations would be used, telling
| how the fund would be utilized for
the physical ministration to take
| men, women and children from their
| hunger and nakedness and help them
to food and rainment; how it would
succor to the sick and wounded and
rescue them from invaidness and
death ;fand how it would provide med
dicines and nurses and surgeons for
those American boys who will be torn
and mangled on the battlefields OF
France. He asked each member Of
his congregation to give the matter
careful consideration and next Sun
day be prepared to contribute accord
ing to their means.
After the service woman we'll
nigh eighty, upon whose brow toll,
poverty, sickness and suffering have
left their traces and upon whose
shoulders the burden of the years
weigh heavily, wended her way to
the altar, and handed the pastor 81 so
for the worthy cause.-the only mon
cy she had in the world and the only
money she has prospects of having.
The sum represented the amount she
had saved from years of toll when
washing was her means of livelihood; !;
the money she had when sickness and
| old age overlook and she found she
had no place to lay her head. ex-
oept the one the county provides. She
wanted to make her donation then
because next Sunday her limbs
might fail her and she would not be
able to reach the church, or she might
be called Home" Desiring that her
right hand should not know what her
left hand did, she requested her con-
tribution be made nameless.
Surely If this woman could give
her all, what must be expected Of
those of US who are more fortunate
in order that our donations represent
the exalted, unselfish patriotism of
the good Americans in La Plata coun-
ty, and elsewhere?
