HE GAVE HIS SHIRT OFF HIS BACK
How an Italian Officer Travelling on Train
Helped a New Born Baby.

wretchedly poor and disheartened
mother had been jammed In with the
hundreds of other frightened Italians
on the same train. Hungry, tired and
miserable and In a frightfully weak
ened condition, she had scarcely sufh-
cient clothes for herself, not to speak
Of properly caring for q newborn babe.
The young officer stripped himself OF
his shirt, and there among this fright
ened, half starved, forlorn crowd the
poor Italian infant was wrapped in Its
first body covering.
Mother and babe were afterwards
nursed back to health, clothed and
looked after by the American Red
Cross. And this Is only one small, Is
olated incident among thousands that
come under the working of the Red
Cross.

to Lorraine. Nine. Pellier hoped that.
ever though her village had been bonn

She found nothing except her bare
fields.

who can never lose through war five

but only the grace of accident saved
you not yours, but it might have been
and so you changed the picture. You
could not build up with your WI
hands that heap of stones into a home,
nor till the fields. nor bring Nine. Pei
lier back to hope and the children
back to health. But through the Red
Cross you saved the remnants Of that
family that had suffered as you might
have suffered.
Things the Red Cross Did.
You took the mother of Nine. Pei
lier to a Red Cross hospital to be treat
ed for anaemia. You took the little
girl, who was In the first stages OF
tuberculosis, to a Red Cross sani-
tarium. You found a place which
could be made habitable for Nine. Pei
lier near her fields which she was
anxious to till. You gave her clothes
and furniture; you got her seeds; you
lent her implements. You sent a Wis
iting doctor to watch over her health
and that of her little boy. You sent
nurses, who achieved the mighty vic
tory of making her and the child take
baths. Later you persuaded her to let
him go to a refuge not far away where
he might attend school and where she
could often visit him. Through the
help of your Red Cross hope and cour-
age and ambition have come back to
that woman, and she Is rebuilding her
family life. The biggest thing one hui
man being can do for another you, II
you are a helper of the Red Cross.

Red Cross! I saw it's work every
where In France-in fields and In
blasted villages; in hospitals and
schools and clinics; In refugees and
v~estiaries for widows and orphans and
for the sick children OF soldiers fight
ing to keep you safe from the enemy.
This symbol of help has a double
meaning now for Americans, who have
always taken for granted the blessing
of safety. 1t stands for your willing
ness to pay the price of exemption, of
pity, of sympathy. A bitter, black
road this road of war, but across 1t.
like a beacon of hope, you have flung
the Red Cross.

FATHER AT WAR,
TRAGEDY AT HOME
Just What Home Service Means
to a Soldier.

The father kisses his wife and kid
dies goodby, shoulders his gun and
marches away to war.
For a time the current OF life nows
smoothly for the soldiers little fami-
". Then comes the tragedy. Mother
is taken i'll. The little brood OF broth
ers and sisters is helpless. No father
to turn to. A helpless motherl
To whom can the American soldiers
family look at this critical periodf
Must a brave mans loyalty to his
country mean desolation and suffering
to those nearest and dearest to himf
Mol Emphatically moi The Ameri-
can people will not permit the fami-
lies of their soldiers and sailors to
suffer because their breadwinners are
fighting for their country. And so the
Red Cross Department of Civilian Re
lief has created a nationwide organ
ization for home service for the fami-
lies of soldiers and sailors.
Under the banner of Home Serv-
ice' patriotic men and women have
enrolled and are devoting themselves
TO the 0ODle lhSh VI Hcipihb ooi'iiCio
families to meet and adjust the prob
lens of everyday life and aiding them
to maintain the standards Of health,
education and industry.
Home Service-True Service.
Home service means keeping the sol
dier's children well and in school. 1t
means tiding the family owe financial
troubles, arranging the household
budget, meeting insurance premiums,
adjusting a mortgage, bringing med
zeal aid and legal advice to bear at the
right moment. In short "HOme Serv-
Ice is true service, in that it provides
the warm handclasp Of friendship
rather than the humiliation of charity.
It calls for sympathetic understanding
and intelligent consideration of the
most vital needs of the soldiers family.
The Red Cross Is pledged to Home
Service" wherever needed In the Unit
ed States. In each chapter of the Red
Cross there will be a home service
section, under competent hands. whose
mission will be TO protect the welfare
Of the soldiers and sailors homes and
to safeguard the normal development
Of their families In employment and In
ideals of self help and self reliance.

EARNS IA CENTS A DAY;
HAS WIFE AND BABY
And Yet This True Story Has a
Happy Ending.

Even a Frenchman sometimes loses,
for awhile at least, his "unfailing'
sense of humor.
Take, for instance, the case OF a
man from Lille. a soldier, Waeltele Dy
name and only twenty shree. He had
done pretty well, for the youngster a
already his own printing shop In that
northern French town, which is still in
side the German lines. In the trenches
waeltele developed tuberculosis, and
he was sent to a hospital at Grenoble.
There he was considered incurable,
and after the usual three months OF
treatment he was granted his IA cents
a day pension. Said his fatherly army
doctor, my son, you can perhaps cure
yourself II you will live in the noun
tafns, II you will eat plenty of nour-
ishing food and, above all, If you don't
worry"
WaeIteIe should have smiled, but he
didn't. He VAS thinking Of his baby
and his wife-and his ~ cents. "Don't
worry!" The humor Of II entirely es-
capped him.
Then the Red Cross stepped In. He
was found by an American woman
with some American Red Cross money
for Just such cases, and within a few
hours he no longer had need to worry.
He was sent to the mountains at La.
mure. In the French Alps, happy In
the knowledge that his family was be-
ing cared for by these amazingly kind
Americans.
And now the army doctors words
are coming true. Waeltele's lung Is
healing fast, and he is dreaming OF
another printing shop and of living
again some day with that little family.
There have been over 100000 new
cases of tuberculosis in France since
the war started, and to care for these
cases and check the White Plaques
spread is merely n of the big jobs
the American Red Cross has set out to
accomplish.

One of the ways to say that a man
is good hearted is to descend 10 ex-
pressive Americanese slang and say
she'd give you his shirt"
A young Italian officer did exactly
that-gave the shirt off his back to a
baby just born. 1t was during a flight
of the Italian refugees just after the
Italian army had been tricked by the
Austrians.
Here's the story:
An Italian officer. who had been a
volunteer worker at the station when
the crush came through. walked int
the American Red Cross office at Bo-
logna, Italy. and told of a poor young
woman who had given birth to a baby
on the train In which he was riding a
few nights previously. They had been
riding for over 16 hours. and the

This is the picture / saw last Janu-
airy In France,-and you have merci-
fully changed It'll Color enough there
was-above, the eternal blue; In the
background, fields of living green,
which the German shells could lot
prevent from creeping back; In the
middle foreground, a long village
street so battered and burned that
1t was merely a canyon OF cream-col-
ored ruins. In front of one little
broken house were four figures In
black-an old woman, poking among
the fallen stones In a vain search Tor
something that could be used; a
woman, seated on what had
once been a doorstep, with her face
hidden In her arms; and a little boy
and girl, who stared, half frightened,
half curious, at the desolation about
them. The little boy held in his thin
hand a Red Cross flag. All four were
pale and gaunt; the faces and bodies
of the children showed none of the
round curves that make the beauty OF
q child.
This is their history: When the
war broke out, Nine. Pellier, her
mother and her four younger children
were visiting her husbands mother In
the north of France. Her husband
and two elder sons were at home In
Lorraine taking care of the summer
crops. Then the wari The mother
in-law of Nine. Pellier was Ill and
could not be left. Her old mother
was afraid to travel to Lorraine with
the full care of the Jour children. Be
fore they could all start together the
Germans invaded. Bad news is allow
ed to come into northern France, and
so as the months passed Nine. Pellier
learned that her village home had been
bombarded and that her husband and
two sons had been killed. Except for
the Belgian Relief Commission, which
operates In northern France also. she
and her little ones would have starved
outright. At the best they were I'M
dernourished. Then the great push
began, n hopes Tor france grew
high. But as the French soldiers ad'
vanced they had to lombard the north
erp towns. Nine. Pellier begged the
Germans to let her go away with her
children-even into Germany. This
was refused. She tried to seek safety
in some cellar whenever there vas a
b~ombardment. Nevertheless a shell
killed two of her children.

remaining children were repatriated
