tered in Augusta, opened yesterday
afternoon at the Y. NJ. c. A. gymna-
SUM. The speaker was Hon. Frank
G. Harrington. His audience number
ed about 100, a large portion of whom
were in khaki. The importance Of
striving after high ideals. and of keep
ing clean in body, mind and soul, was
strongly impressed on the young men.
No country. said Mr.. Harrington, has
ever survived the struggle for exist
ence that has not had a religious mo-
tive and a belief in God as it's foun-
dalton. Germany. he remarked, seems
to be swinging away from such a mo-
tive and belief. Ernest L. Mclean,
president Of the Laymen's Association.
presided as chairman of the meeting.

ter of the American National Red
Cross, as adopted by action of the
Executive Committee on May 81. They
were drafted with great care. in the
effort to reproduce in Augusta the
splendid and efficient organization of
the Portland Chapter. The intention
has been to make them so full and
explicit that they will furnish the nee
essary Information, and be a depend
able guide, to the Red Cross workers
of Augusta Chapter All officers and
members of Committees are requested
to study them carefully.
1t is planned to definitely start the
Chapter activities, as a %6ole, one

this during the present week by the
following meetings:

Chairmen and Secretaries of all 9TH

by Chairman of the accounting and

various books and blanks connected
Herewith. The American Red Cross
tolerates no looseness in these matters
It's Chapters must make various state
ments and reports to Washington and
its financial and other records must be
kept upon strictly business basis.
The method adopted in Portland has
worked extremely we'll and even those
ladies who were unfamiliar with ac-
counts were easily taught the uses of
the few simple blanks and books with
which they individually had to deal.
Two fine locations for permanent
headquarters are in prospect. both
rent free, and it is expected that this
question will be settled during the
present week.
