Below will be found Niles Bruces'
speech, the one that gave him first
place in the Red Cross contest May
18th:
The Red Cross is an organization
Of more than so years standing. Al
tsr battle had been fought, = Swiss
gentleman, Henri Dunant, saw the
great need OF a better way TO care
for the wounded soldiers. He worked
hard to interest the people in this
cause, and as a result, in August, 1863,
convention was held at Geneva,
Switzerland, at which 10 nations were
represented. While there have been
many changes in the resolutions
adopted at that time. the Red Cross
organizations of different countries
are independent OF each other and do
whatever work they find necessary.
In honor OF the country which began
this wonderful movement, the Swiss
flag, with the cOlors reversed, was
chosen as the emblem. Thus, We have
the well known red cross on the
white field. The first Red Cross So
ciety was formed in the United States
in 1851 and this society is prepared,
not only 10 care for the wounded In
time OF war. but to help at any time
Of great suffering. AT the present,
the need Of the Red Cross is the
greatest Of any time since its origin.
The greatest battle in the worlds
history began in France, March 81 OF
this year, and Is still raging The
slaughter has been terrible, and while
the losses have been heavier on the
side Of the Germans. our allies have
suffered severely. The Red Cross at
tn front Is ovcrtaxcd and the people
Of England, France and Italy have
more than they can do. The call
comes 10 us to combine our efforts
with theirs in this great hour OF need
The man who lies wounded on the bat.

peacefully at home, deserves every
care that human power can give him.
Do you know that the nursing, and the
