chronic coughs, headaches, constipa-
ton, etc., which likewise may be re-
lieved quickly enough.

THE RED CROSS
JUBILATE DEO

War is not glorious until war is
ended.
"This war isn't all joy, said a
wounded Yankee, "but gee, I'd hate
not to be in it." =
The Red Cross sisters enjoyed the
''hurrah party" like soldiers, knowing
that for them the work was not over,
though the frightfulness is past. Red
Cross enlistment is not "for the dura-
tion Of the war;" but for all time. Me-
dina County Chapter has full quota
of work: operating garments and refu-
gee garments. This is no time for
slackers. Medina village work rooms
will be open from ten to four, instead
Of just afternoons. Bring your lunch
and put in full time.

portance of fitting a cripple to enjoy
the wages he earns as we'll Us to be a

your cripple that he can enjoy life.
am not overestimating it's Importance
when I say that unless you prove 70 a
cripple that there is enjoyment ahead,
you can do very little to help him.
Frankly, what is the intentionally
should he work-why even live? What
do we live for, anyway? The pursuit
of happiness in the main! .
"When a man is wounded and Grip
pied, the realization of that Gripping
comes at time when the nervous sys-
tenn is the least able to bear the ad-
ditional shock which the realization
brings. But the shock does come to
the mind and with it feeling that
worse than death has come. Pictures
arise Of beggars and shoe-string ped
dlers, and all kinds of helpless and
manned individuals. Coupled with a
shattered nervous system, weeks of
enforced inactivity, with the idea of
helplessness, with the idea of life

could multiply these things thousand
fold, things which you would refuse to
believe. But they must be put across
to the men early, and it must be done
by men who have had the experience
first hand. The methods suggested in
this letter are being developed by the
Surgeon General of the Army. With
the cooperation of the Red Cross, a
pamphlet entitled The Way Out will
be placed in the hands of every dis

covered sufficiently to read it."
