MEETING OF THE
RED CROSS COMMITTEE

RED CROSS COMMITTEE.
AT meeting of the Red Cross Com
mittee last Saturday at the home of Mrs.
w. +. Hsnley the work of the Red
Cross was discussed relative to "dong
our bt'' in Custer. On account of the
volume of work which has almost
swamped the Red Cross authorities at
Washington, we have heard little from
| them and are not able to plan as yet an
| organization for Custer. From several
sources however, it has come to us that
the work of the Chapter is of such de-
mands and of such proportions that it
may be found too great to be undertaken
locally and in that case the Auxiliary
| work may be chosen instead of the
Chapter AS we are finding out the
| Chapter work requires that each Chap
| ter undertake definite class of work in
some department and that the finished
shipment to Headquarters shall be uni
form in number of articles, actual meas
urement and size ofshipment with every
other shipment of Chapter work in the
u. S. and that, for instance the Hospital
department requirement in one article
is sterilized sponge from 100 dozen in
the larger size to 400 dozen in the six
inch size for each Chapter it will be
| readily seen what monumental task il
| would be to assume the work in Custer.
The Auxiliary work is much more sim.
pie and just as effective and consists in
assisting an already organized Chapter
to meet its necessary requirements. This
appeals to us from the standpoint oi
| efficiency, as the task would be within
our ability and would expedite the sup,
plies getting to the front earlier than
possible if we awaited the finishing o
the larger shipment by small Chapter
We are still seeking information and
at an early date Mass meeting will be
called to decide the work to be done
| and the officers to direct the movement

Chautauquas are not luxuries-they
are necessities. The position of the
businessman who would refuse to sup
port such an institution is hard TO un-
derstand. 1t might not bring into his

feature, the moral upift to the younger
generation certainly makes it a paying
