Worthy of the Utmost
Confidence

No organization was ever called
together for more noble purposes
than the Red Cross and none was
ever conducted in d manner to de
serve. more surely, the confidence OF
the entire world Fand5 or materials
contributed to ii are, without excep-
ton. devoted to the relief of needy
humanity, in accordance with its
great purposes. The work is being
managed with skill and ability by
men who have been notably success
full in commercial life and who think
the cause worthy of their best talent,
not the less valuable because freely
given.
No system, however ingenious, can
prevent soldier or sailor from pawn
ing or selling a garment which may
reach him thru the Red Cross and
without doubt instances of that kind
have occurred. They have been
made use of, by German sympathizers,
and by some thotless tho we'll in
tentioned people, to weaken Red
Cross enthusiasm. Among the
agencies now loyalty working for the
comfort of our troops abroad and in
the training camps, none are more
faithful, and none more efficient.
We should all discredit with indig-
nant protest any rumors calculated to
injure, in the least an institution so
desperately needed for the present
war emergency.

The racing. in keeping with other
features of the Fair, was of the best
as can be seen from the various sum-
maries. Many of the heats were
very close and on more than one
occasion went under the wire neck to
neck. The crowd in the grand stand
would come to their feet at such times
and shout loudly for their fayorites.
There was little il any betting. tho
