ST. ALPH0NSUS SERVICE
FLAG" DEDICATED SUNDAY

A most pleasing feature at the yes.
pers service at St. Alphonsus church
last Sunday evening was the dedica-
tion of the service flag, which had
been made by the young girls of the
Catholic Soldiers Aid Club, of St.
Alphonsus parish. The interest which
the people of the community as
whole eyinced in this patriotic event
was plainly shown by the number in
attendance to witness the dedication
and to listen to Rev. Father Corry's s
special topic for the evening of "The
Catholic Church and Patriotism. I"
The service flag which now has a
place in the church until the return
of our boys after the war carries
thirty-fve stars in the form of a
cross, there being one star for each
young man who has gone to serve with
the colors from Catholic homes in this
parish. Some of the boys are already
in the trenches over in France, while
others are in training camps scatter.
ed over the United States awaiting a
call to serve their country and flag.
The boys whose loyalty has been
designated by the placing of a star
on the service flag of St. Alphonsus
church and which was dedicated Sun

CH|NKS DONATE LARGE SUM ID
 THE RED CROSS

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Chinese sympathy and friendship for the United States was shown in striking fashion during the last Red Cross drive for funds to carry on the organization relief work in Europe. An account of the appeal made in China for aid for the Red Cross was received recently from Julian Arnold, commercial attache at Shanghai, saying that the Chinese of all classes responded nobly."
 America was the first nation to solicit the active participation of the Chinese in war relief work.
 "We secured good strong com mitte of younger Chinese headed by c. T. Wong, former vice president of the Chinese Senate" MT. Arnold said. Eight teams were organized under team captains, who were American college graduates. These Chinese teams worked hard and 2,000 Chinese were added to the Red Cross membership from Shanghai and environs.
 "P. K. Che, secretary eff the Chinese Worlds Students Confed- eration, carried off the honors for his team for the largest number of members secured. Gnu Chi Chien, former minister of the interior, piled up 2,000 members to his credit. Chang Chien, former minister of Commerce and Agriculture, added good number of members.
 "There was also Chinese wom- ans team, headed by beautiful Chin ese girl graduates from American colleges. This team secured over 2,0OO memberships. Many Chinese schools in Shanghai joined as junior auxiliaries.
 "A number of large Chinese com panies joined with their entire staffs. The Commercial Press with 2,OOO employees came in 100 per cent One department store, arranged that all its employees receiving less than $15 month should have 60 per cent of the membership fees paid by the firm, so that all the mem- bers of this large concern went about with Red Cross buttons dur ing the drive. The Shanghai hotels also joined, with every waiter, bell boy and coolie, wearing a Red Cross with pride.
 "The captain of one of the Chin , ese teams expressed surprise at the general response of the poorer classes to the Red Cross appeal. It was no uncommon occurrence to nave coolie on the street answer I request to join with such remarks IS:
 America has always been a friend of China. She gave back Q China the Boxer indemnity and lid other things to help us. Now am glad to join the American Red Cross and help America. |.
 "A poor man, receiving wages of ess than $10 month, sent us from iingpo, 100 miles south of Shang- lai, by courier post, not knowing hat China has a modern postal ad- at a cost of 15 cents or delivery and Is cents for re- urn receipts, $1.50 for a member hip in the Red Cross He stated hat he had heard his friends tell ow friendly the United States had zen to China and he wanted 10

that maintenance OF high standards OF
wages and OF conditions Of labor are
possible. Mr.. Compers will have the
cooperation OF the Republicans of tn /.
country. The Republican party has
always endeavored to maintain an eco
nomic policy which makes possible the
payment of the highest wages. and
the observance of the shortest hours.
and we believe the records will show
that in time OF peace American labor
has been better paid under Republican
policies than under those imposed by
the Democratic party 1t is perhaps.
true that. on an average. hours of la

men found their hours OF labor cut &,
