ION February 10th, last year, nearly six weeks be-
fore the United States declared war; National Red Cross
HEADQUARTERS advised its chapters to prepare for war;
in helping to win this war and TO relieve the suffering
growing out of IT, constitutes something of which every
American citizen has right to be proud Every Amer
Red Cross worker must feel of gratitude In
having had share in 1t all
"The. moment is now to prepare for peace.
Until peace is really here and soldiers home there
can be no relaxation in any Red Cross effort incident to
: active hostilites.
X. 'But even with peace, let suppose that the
work of the Red Cross is finished Millions of American
BOYS are still under arms. Thousands Of them sick
and wounded Owing to the shortage in shipping Il may
take year to bring our boys home from France
But whatever the ne our protecting must be about
them and their families the whole period which
must eapse before the normal life of peace can be re-
sumed.
"our soldiers and sailors are enlisted until the Com
mandern-C chief tells them there Is no more work for
worker-and this means both and women--show
returning soldiers and sailors that to care for their
health welfare and happiness enlisted for no less
period than they are
''The cessation Of war will reveal picture Of misery
such as the world has before, especially in
the many countries which cannot help themselves The
American people will expect the Red Cross to continue
to cs ls Pssee m smd Conditions @
determine how may best minister TO the vast stricken
areas which have been narrowed by war ar and for this
people must continue to be mobized through the Amer
lean Red Cross.
"on behalf of the War Council. we accordingly ask
each member OF splendid body Of workers through
out the land 10 bear In mind the solemn obligation which
rests upon each one TO carry on We abate
instant in our efforts in spirits There will be
abundance Of work TO do, and specific advices will be
given but at the moment Of peace let no Red Cross
worker falter
"Our spirits must now call us TO show that not the
roar of the blood Of own alone directs
greatly and freely TO It's obligations and opportunity to
serve"

Five thousand tons Of clothing for
the destitute people Of occupied Bel

This is the objective of a drive to be
conducted by the American Red Cross
at the request~6f Herbert c. Hoover,
chairman of the Belgian Relief Com
mission, during the week beginning
Monday September q. The clothing
drive Of the Red Cross last March
brought in 5000 tons of garments and
is estimated that at least as much
more will be required to clothe the TO-
100000 people in the occupied terri
tory during the coming winter.
As in the previous campaign the
clothing will be collected by the chap
ters Of the Red Cross throughout the
United States. Every kind of gar
ment, for all ages and both sexes, is
urgently needed. Garments of strong
materials are wanted as they will be
subjected to the hardest kind of wear.
Flimsy garments, ballroom dresses,
high heeled slippers, silk hats, straw
hats, and derbies, which were donated
in large quantities in the last cloth
ing campaign, will not be accepted.
Such articles would be of no use.
