obituary-Fern Reemsnyder


Among the many losses this COM
munity has sustained during the cpl
demic of influenza none came with
a greater surprise or caused greater
sorrow than did the death of Fern
Alice Reemsnyder, a young lady of
only twenty-three years, born near,
and reared in Hays.
She was born at the farm home
just north of Hays October 9, 1895,
and died at the Christian Church Hos
pital in Kansas City, November 6,
1918
Fern joined the Lutheran church
in 1914,w graduated from the Hays
high school in 1915, received her life
diploma to teach from the Fort Hays
Kansas State Normal School, May
1917, and taught school in Natoma
the winted following.
For some time she longed to be-
come nurse, but yielding to the
wishes of her mother she refrained
from taking the necessary training.
But the call of her country became so
strong, she said to her mother,'I am
strong and well and able to serve our
country. There are so many, though
willing whose health will not permit
them to CO."
She left Hays, October 26, to take
training in the Christian Church Hos
pital, at Kansas City, where five other
Fort Hays Normal girls are training.
Two days later she complained of i'll
ness. Upon being informed of her i'll
ness her mother left Sunday Novem-
Der for her bedside Her condition
did not seem alarming in the least
until the afternoon of the 9th, when
she died near midnight, conscious to
the last.
Funeral services were held at the
family residence, Friday, November
z at 3 p. m. In the absence of hel
pastor, Rev. G. F. West, Rev Carrot
Snyder, assisted by Rev j. W. Snapp
conducted the services. The many
beautiful floral offerings received fol
the funeral and on the following day:
bore tribute to the relatives of the
high esteem in which Fern was held.
She leaves in sore grief her mother
Mrs. Allie Reemsnyder, sister Esther
grandparents, Mr.. and Mrs B. F
Replogle, a number of relatives
fance in France, and host of admir-
ing friends. Ferns jocial, whole-soul
| ed, sweet christian character gave he
personality which won the love anC
esteem of all her acquaintance.
Mrs. Reemsnyder was accompanied
home by her sister, Mrs. Chas. Goet
chius of Kansas City.
Among the friends in Kansas Cit!
who were at the station to sympathizt
with Mrs. Reemsnyder were Miss Jen

Yours veE truly,
George ". s.
Manager Southwestern Division

Manager southwestern DIVISION !
Mr.. George W. Simmons, st. Louis,
Missouri.
On February 10 last year nearly
six weeks befor the United States de-
clared war, National Red Cross Head
quarters advised its Chapters to pre-
pare for war. That which has followed
in the record of the Red Cross In
helping to win this war and to re-
lieve the suffering growing out of it,
constitutes something of which every
American citizen has a right to be
proud. Every American Red Cross
worker must feel a sense of gratitude
in having had share In it all
The moment is now come to pre-
pare for peace. Actual peace may
come at any moment; it may be de-
ferred for some time. Until peace is
really here there can be no relaxation
in any Red Cross effort incident to
active hostilities.
But even with peace, let no one
suppose that the work of the Red
Cross is finished. Millions of Ameri-
can boys are still under arms. Thous-
ands of them are sick or wounded.
Owing to the shortage in shipping, it
may take a year or more to bring our
boys home from France. But what
ever the time, our protecting arms
must be about them and their fami-
lies over the whole period which must
elapse before normal life of peace can
| be resumed.
Our soldiers and sailors are enlist
ed until the Commander in Chief tells
them there is no more work for them
to do in the war. Let every Red Cross
member and worker show our return
ing soldiers and sailors that to care
for their health, welfare and happi-
ness, we are enlisted for no less
period than they are.
The cessation of war will reveal a
picture of misery such as the world
has never seen before, especially in
the many countries which cannot
help themselves. The American peo-
pie will expect the Red Cross to con-
tinue to act as their agent in repair
ing broken spirits and broken bodies.
Peace terms and peace conditions will
determine how we may best minister
to the vast stricken areas which have
been narrowed by war, and in this
great act of mercy, the heart and
spirit of the American people must
continue to be modified through the
American Red Cross.
On behalf of the War Council, we
accordingly ask each member of our
splendid body of workers throughout
the land to bear in mind the solemn
obligation which rests upon each one
to "Carry On. We cannot abate one
instant in our efforts or in our spirit.
There will be an abundance OF work
to do, and specific advices will be Civ
en-, but even at the moment of peace
let no Red Cross worker falter.
Our spirits must now call US to
show it is not the roar of cannon OF
the blood of our own alone, that di-
reefs our activities, but that a great
people will continue to respond great
ly and freely to its obligation and
opportunity to serve mankind
