RED CROSS ACTIVITIES
Contributed by
MISS LOUISE AVER,
Secretary Olympia Chapter.

Last week a large delegation from
Thurston county attended the Red
Cross institute in Seattle There were
sneeches covering all the work, and
there we're round tables" dealing
with specific subjects Everyone
found something of value.
Pesident Suzzallo of the University
made the opening address and. the
pith of it was the following:
The strength of the Red Cross lies
in it's ability to cooperate. The
American people are strong "perpen-
dicularly" but weak "laterally." AS
individuals they are strong, but in
mass they are weak. A dozen weak
men bound together are more pow
erful than dozen strong men stand
ing alone. But If a dozen strong men
work together as one, they are in
vincible. His message then was,
learn to work as body; use your in
dividuality, compromise on non-es-
sentials, lay aside pride of opinion,
keep your temper, obey instructions.
! = hear nothing, but praises for
the work of this chapter. OF the
knitting the division says there is no
finer work sent in from the entire
Northwest than that from Thurston
county. 1t is always perfect in exc
cution, always packed properly and
always marked correctly.
The most extensive work of the in
stitute was instruction in the making
of the new surgical dressings. We Of
the sphagnum moss region may be
called upon to confine our work to
that branch of dressings. The COM
mittee is collecting and cleaning large

To Requisition All Wheat.

Under an order issued by Charles
Hebberd, food administrator for
Washington. all wheat held on farms
in this state which is not necessary
for home use will be requisitioned
after May Is. The administrator is
informed there is considerable grain
held in the state, some of it under
the impression that a higher price
may be obtained. and some held by
persons from unpatriotic motives.
County Agent Bergstrom can furnish
what information local farmers may
need.

Monday the goth the drive is on.
There probably never was a call for
money which one could meet with
more perfect satisfaction. The cause
appeals to both the head and the
heart OF every American, and the ex-
penditure of the funds lies in the
hands of men who have proved them
selves scrupulously honest and tre-
mendously efficient.
1t is only year since the newly ap-
pointed heads of the Red Cross sailed
for Europe to begin the vast work or
which they themselves could have but
the vaguest knowledge. 1t is said
that in all the strangeness, confusion
and bewilderment. our leader con-
stantly reiterated, I'VE must keep
this thing simple and we must keep
it big" That has been done.
Every part of the Red Cross work
is open as the day, and at the same
time it's accomplishments are almost
beyond comprehension. 1t gives in a
big way; when a situation calls for
the expenditure of a million dollars,
it spends it without haggling. Re-
Gently it was felt that everything pos
sible should be done to give courage
to the French. The French Red
Cross was sorely pressed for funds.
We gave them nearly two million dol
lars. Italy has been given over four
millions, and Italy is on its feet again,
full of hope and courage.
If ever an organization proved
itself the American Red Cross has
done SO. Think what it means to
have at your service powerful or
ganization whose business it is to save
the lives Of your boys in Europe,
which can be trusted to attend to
that business night and day wisely
and conscientiously, and then remem-
Der that the only thing which will
prevent its accomplishment is your
failure to send the necessary supplies

the several counties be asked to pro-
vide the legitimate local expense of

where no foods are used that need to

ton be broadened into a general ap-
peal for. increased economy; and,

tinued in hotels and restaurants.
Every county was represented at

good shape, the people taking food
conservation in good spirit and many
said they were having no trouble.
Joe Reder, Thurston county admin
istrator, attended the meeting.
