YOUR RED CROSS
An Army Without a Gan
By MEREDITH NICHOLSON
OF the ViaIlantea

THE Red Cross is the greatest instrument OF
mercy the world has ever seen. Noble as the
service of mercy and hepfulness was in Civil War
days. the Red Cross surpasseS it immeasuraby not
only in the range and variety of its effort. but in
efficiency and effectiveness.
The Red Cross is. we may say. the arms of the
mothers of the world reached out to their sons to
bind up their wounds and comfort them. The Red
Cross is an army uihhom gun that wages war
only upon suffering and heartache Where the
flag of the stars goes there the banner of the Red
Cross must fly beside it. We watch our boys 20
forth to with spirit of hopefulness because we
know that this great agency of humanity presses
close behind them; that its work is not incidental
but the intelligent directed effort of one of the
most marvellous organizations ever contrived by
American genius.
We have all contributed to the Red Cross; we
shall be called upon again to contribute to its
funds.-again and perhaps again. And we will
respond again and yet againl For this is war for
the defense of civilization and we of great, free
splendid glorious America, have every intention /
that it shall be fought with the army of the Red /
Cross solidly supporting our soldiers.

TEMPERANCE NOTES
(By the National Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union)
BEER MUST GO.

In not one of the 20 dry states, nor
in the District of Columbia, Alaska or
Porto Rico, does the prohibition, law
exempt beer. Beer is not exempt in
the army and navy prohibition regula-
lions, nor in any territory under fed
eral prohibition. In Oregon, Washing
ton, Colorado and Arizona the brewers,
with millions of dollars behind them,
tried TO force a beer amendment upon
the people, and in every case were
overwhelmingly defeated. These facts
and the growing anti-beer sentiment
throughout the country should con
vince the brewers and their hackers
that any attempt to put beer aud
light wine exemption clause in the res
oIution now before congress for a pro-
hibition amendment 10 the federal Con
stitution is doomed to failure. They
would better save their money for the

ONE OF WORLDS GREAT MEN
Johnny Appleseed, Responsible for
Many Orchards in Wide Range, VIII
Not Soon Be Forgotten.

John Chapman's name occupies an
important place in our American his
tory, for he is known as Johnny APP
pleseed, the Apostle of Apple Grow
ing" More than hundred years have
passed since Johnny Appleseed scat
tered apple seeds throughout a wide
range of territory from Pennsylvania
to the Mississippi country, and in hui
mility, yet his name has been immOr-
talized, and we of future generations
will be long time forgetting the name
of this great father of the modern
apple-growing industry, the Christian
Herald states.
Johnny Appleseed was born in
Springfield, Mass, in the year ITS,
eventful In American history in more
ways than one. About the year 1901
he emigrated from Massachusetts, join
ing those forces starting for the IN
known western country.
In the territory between Massachu-
sets and Ohio. and as far as Indiana,
Mr.. Chapman was a familiar figure.
He foresaw the tide of migration go
ing to the West, and seeing the need of
fruit, devoted his life to It's culture.
Gathering all the apple seeds he could
secure in his native state he would
make long trips west, planting the
seed and supplying the scattered set
tiers with enough to provide them with
dependable orchards. The result was
thousands of producing apple orchards
throughout this vast territory.

Khaki colors Differ.

Considerable comment is being
aroused in official circles and else
where over the disparity of the khaki
uniforms worn by officers and privates.
Some of them are so faded that they
look almost white, while others retain
original coloring. A few cases have
been noted, states the Pathfinder,
where the coat and breaches Of uni
forms have developed different hues-
One excuse offered is that the khaki
cloth is acquired from many manufsc-
turers and the grades of it differ wide
ly sometimes. Thousands of young
men entering the Of. GERS training
camps purchase their own uniforms,
and this provides an opportunity for
difference in the quality of the
goods.

WORTH OF MiDDLE-AcED MEN
Older Workers, Because of Skill,
Steadiness and Reliability, Out
class Younger Fellows.

In several Western cities '-young-old"
may become nationwide in its scope,
for the purpose of securing employ
ment for men who have passed their
prime.
This is decidedly the day of young
men, and the man who has passed
misale life without having laid up u
competency or mastered some special
line Of work is at dreadful disadvan-
tage.
Eut 1t has always been SO. And age,
now as always, says the Christian Her
aid, is not SO much a matter of years
us of declining enthusiasm.
We have seen men on whose strong
shoulders rests the burden of seven,
eight and sometimes nine decades, full
of unwasted power of spirit and
strength when it comes to freshness
and joy in the work done and the
vision fulfilled
The great work of the world is be-
ing done and always has been done by
men OF middle life and more. Four
fifths of the business failures are made
by young men. 1t is ripened experience
and judgment that count in the bust
ness world, as in any other.
In physical work the older man may
be outclassed by the younger one; but
in lines of work calling for skill, stead
mess and reliability the older man has
the advantage.
There is something seriously wrong
with an economic system that finds a
man useless at fifty.
