The following message has been re.
ceived from the manager of the New
England Division of the American Red
Cross by the president of the local
branch, with the request that it be
given publicity in the locals.
"On February 10th, last year, near
ly six weeks before the United States
declared war, National Red Cross
headquarters advised its chapters to
prepare for war. That which has fol-
lowed in the record of the Red Cross
in helping to win this war and to re-
lieve the suffering growing out of it.
constitutes something of which every
American citizen has right to be
proud Every American Red Cross
worker must feel a sense of gratitude
in having had share in it all.
"The moment has now come to pre-
pare for peace. Actual peace may
come at any moment, it may be de-
ferred for some time. Until real peace
is here there can be no relaxation in
any Red Cross effort incident to active
hostilities.
But even with peace, let no one
suppose that the work of the Red
Cross is finished Millions of Ameri-
can boys are still under arms. Thous-
ands of them are sick or wounded
Owing to the shortage in shipping, it
may take year or more to bring our
boys home from France. But what
ever the time, our protecting arms
must be about them and their families
over the whole period which must
elapse before the normal life Of peace
can be resumed.
Our soldiers and sailors are en-
listed until the Commander in Chief
tells them there is no more work for
them to do in this war. Let every Red
Cross member and worker show our
returning soldiers and sailors that to
care for their health, welfare and hap
piness, we are enlisted for no less a
period than they are.
"The cessation of war will reveal
a picture of misery such as the world
has never seen before, especially in
the many countries which cannot help
themselves. The American people will
expect the Red Cross to continue to

and peace conditions will determine
how we may best administer to the
vast stricken areas which have been
narrowed by war, and in this great
act Of mercy, the heart and spirit of
the American people mus, continue to
be modified through the American

ION behalf Of the War Council, we
accordingly ask each member of our
splendid body of workers throughout
our land to bear in mind the solemn
obligation which rests upon us TO
carry on We cannot abate one in
slant in our efforts or in our spirit,
There will be an abundance of work TO
do, and specific advices will be given,
but even at the moment of peace let no
Red Cross worker falter.
Our spirits must now call us TO

directs our activities, but that great
people will continue to respond great

of these French cars is that every

miles per hour!
We are in young America here.

ahead up the track, l heard the IA
