GREAT DUTY AT HAND

Whether Missoula should keep alive
in peace times the local chapter OF the
lied Cross can best be decided after
the war is over, the members OF the
organizations have been informed in IA
letter from s. Poulterer Morris, di-
rector of the mountain division. Mr..
Morris points out that the realization
OF civilian disaster work may then af-
ford the chapter an interesting field
and adds that the war work will last
such long period, possibly from two
to three years. that he does not be-
lieve they need consider peace condi-
tons now. The letter is in reply to
the query of the local chapter as to
whether il should attempt to keep up
its work after the war WAS over.
Great Task Now.
Just now the great task says Mr.
Norris, sis to be prepared to take care
of the destitution among our allies
abroad, probably involving one hun
dred millions of people, the details OF
properly caring for the medical side OF
our own army and navy that will total
several millions of men, and the re-
lated problems of caring for their fam
lilies as the full force of the mobiliza-
ton is felt across the country. Please
say to your people that the decision of
community with regard to Red
Cross work, after careful consideration
by its citizens is most gladly accepted
by the Red Cross officials.
Thanks Community.
please express to your community
our deep appreciation of their splendid
loyalty and patriotism, and tell them
1t is our most earnest desire to be OF
utmost service to make most effective
their own splendid work"
The local chapter now has 1876 mem
bcrs. Memberships in the Red Cross
are open to anyone who pays the
annual dues which vary in cost ac-
cording to the wishes of the members
The different ones listed are 81, 81
S., $40, SIS and 500. The last tw,
payments make one a life member
Half of the membership money goes
into the local chapter treasury and Is
used to purchase the cloth from which,
the bandages and other army articles
are made. The other half goes into
the emergency fund of the Nationa
Red Cross for use wherever needed
The local chapter expect to gain man,
more members within the next few
weeks.

TN a place built, like Bethlehem, in
i many cases against the soft
limestone rock it often happens
that the existence of n cave where
the house was ~ be was n great at
traction since it offered n ready
made, dry, above ground cellar as
well as a specially suitable spot for
the household animals and for II
storcroom. II would seem that Jo-
scph was at last able to get room in
some such back portion Of a house,
and there, We are told, Mary bore
her divine Son.
\ cave below the high altar of
the Church Of the Nativity is now
shown as the very place whore this
august event transpircd a little re-
cess, shaped like a clam shell, its
floor of marble wrought into Il star

The evidence for this site is 50
strong that most persons accept il as
sufficient, reaching up, MS it docs, TO
within living memory Of the days Of
the apostles. But even if this be an
illusion the fact remains that in this
petty village the Saviour Of the
world was mndo man for our re-
dcmption. No wonder that we read
Of the anthem Of the angels, for
surely nothing could draw forth the
interest Of the heavenly population
like the exceeding grace God was
showing to sinful man.
The scene of the visit OF the shop

slope, facing the village, at some
distance to the east, Bethlehem ~

suddenly the air was filled with an

right out from the mir.
We know not their wonderful

We know not who those angels were,
