Billy Jones
BY
WRIGHT A. PATTERSON.

Billy Joncs-maybe your son or the
son or a neighbor-was in the front
line trenches in France when the Ger.
man bombing party was driven back.
His enthusiasm to get the Boches car.
ried him over the top Of the trench,
and at the edge Of No Mans Land a
Hun bullet got him.
A comrade-maybe your boy-crnwl.
ed out into No Mans Land and brought
Billy Jones back to the American
trenches.
Other comrades carried him back
through the maze of trenches to
dressing station, where his wound was
cared for.
A medical department ambulance
carried him on to the field hospital.
From there Billy Jones was taken to
the base hospital. and there q Red
GROSS nurse-your Red Cross nurse
Is tenderly, carefully, smilingly nursing
him back to health again SO that he
may not have to pay the extreme sac
rlhce that we-that you and l and our
netghbors-may enjoy the blessings Of
freedom.
There are half million of these
boys Of ours In France today and
more going lover there every week.
They are there to wage the supreme
conflict Of the world with the brutal
forces of autocraCy that democracy,
our heritage, may not perish.
We want these boys Of ours to come
back to us, and 1t Is the Red Cross men
and women-Our Red Cross men and
women-who will bring thousands Of
them back who would not otherwise
come II our dollars will but keep them
there to minister to these boys Of ours.
They are but doing for us what we
cannot do for ourselves.

A SCORE OF REASONS
FOR THE RED CROSS

Operates movable hospital In four
units accommodating 1000 men.
Is operating n children's refuge in one
part of the war zone, and In another
medical center and travelling dis.
pensary, both capable of accommo-

Has opened q long chain Of ware.

Has warehouse capacity for 100000

In its most critical condition.

And that 10000 cases Of supplies
have been received at the Paris
headquarters Of the American Red
Cross from your various chapters
scnft' throughout the United
StltCs.
" bat does all this mean to your
Anf I have told you but a fraction of
the work your Red Cross has done
and Is doing. 1t means that without
this ceaseless. heroic work Of the
American Red Cross, we could never

Without your Red Cross Italy would

liberty.
With the help Of your Red Cross

ANY MAN TO ANY MAN
BY GERALD STANLEY LEE

DO not know how other men feel about it. but | find
hard. with all that is happening to the world today
to look small boy in the face.
When small boy looks tr1stney up to me and
] see his world - the world he thinks he is poina to
have. in his eyes, am afraid
The look in his eyes of the world he thinks he is
GONG to have cuts me to the quick.
have always teIt had an understandings with q
small boy before.
But the last tour years when he looks at me in that
old way and think OF his world-the one see in his
eyes-the one had mysel--tfle one every small boy
has right to. see suddenly instead the that is
being left for him by by all of us. the one he will
have to try to pvt up with. have to live in have to be
man in when you and | have stopped trying.
Then when face the small boy want to 60 off
in q wide high place alone and think and ask Cod. |
want to so down into the city and f8ht-feht with my
money and with my hope, 60 the top with my
religion and then come back and face the small boy
There days during this struggle when my soul
is spent and all the world seems made of iron and glass
and all these crowds Of people fockn9 through the
streets who do not seem to care
1t seems as if would not turn over my head to save
world to live in myself. 1t does not matter about
me-and some days the people see 60 by almost
make me think it does not matter about them. . ..
Then suddenly 60 by troops of school children at
four o'clock pouring out into the streets. . . . pourine
like tire. pouring like sunshine out into the sreetsi
1t is as the roll Of drums for the Liberty Loanl
want to ring great church bells to call people to
the Red Crossi
My rule for mans finding out just how much he
should subscribe to the Red Cross is this:
Put down your and address on the blank
and leave the amount open to think. Then try going
past schoohouse about four o'clock when the children
are pouring out
Or in the evening when the house is quiet put
down your name and the best figure you dareon the
white paper
Then 60 upstairs minute and look in the crib
Then look al your blank when you come down
once more.
