Christmas greeting for which it waits
and for which it stands in greatest
need"
This is to be the gladdest Christmas
any of US have known for years. We
are glad the war is over. But there
is horrible suffering still to be reliev-
ed, CHASTITY famine stalks through
many lands, millions of little children
will not know the gladness that we
shall know. Echoes of rejoicing over
world at peace at last must fall
strangely upon the ears of those who
know the constant pangs of hunger,
and are clad in rags and are cold,
All you are asked to do is to paw
the membership fee of one dollar and
join the Red Cross. That great or-
ganization for the relief of suffering
will put your dollar where it will count
most in relieving suffering and YOU
will be one of the vast throng united
IN the great work of mercy. You
will not be asked to join more than
once. "All you need is heart and a
dollar"

According to a press dispatch, the
number of people in Germany who
still favor kaiserdon is very large.
They would like to get revenge on the
former kaiser for his mistakes, not
Tor his crimes. If his crimes had
resulted in victory and consequent
profit he would have been a greater
man than ever and they would have
cared nothing about his crimes. From
all that comes out Of Germany it
seems that the German people are as
bad as the kaiser and the war lords.
