During my eight months IN France
7 have had the good fortune in getting
about considerably. These trips were
possible because OF the relatively
small amount OF work we have had

once with the British. On each occa-

pressed the wish 70 have the "Hohen-

the artillery behind them. He said that
was the desire OF all the soldiers

"In Superior we mad all our electric
lights on at 2 p III. Of October II, and
the chickens went to rOost at 3. The
air was like blood, red hot cinders
blowing everywhere. The first train
arrived at mid night with the refugees.
Superior had the flu ban on, which gave
an opp 'rtunity for the Red Cross to use
the churches, public schools, and public
places of amusement, the Y. M. G.. A.
rooms, K. of G.. rooms and the lodge
rooms.
"Anyone who knows what we have
done will appreciate the civilian relief
department of the Red Cross-there will
be plenty of it needed in the future in
the cases of calamity such as the big
forest fire. We must be ready for civil
calamity as we'll as for the calamities Of
war"

CIVILIAN RELIEF WORK BY THE
RED CROSS

~'If it hadn't been for the Red Cross
what?'
The above question has been in the
mouths of most of the residents of the
northern part of Wisconsin, ever since
the big Michigan forest fires of October
II.
Mrs A. T. Rock, vice chairman Of the
Superior chapter of the Red Cross, says
that while she cannot say what would
have happened if it had not been for
the Red Cross, she can tell what did
happen, because of it. Mrs Rock was
in Milwaukee Thursday for the meeting
of the state chapters, called to discuss
the plans for the Christmas Red Cross
Roll Call.
$50 many people do not understand
fully the work of the civilian end of the
Red Cross, but think that now that the
war is over we do not need money,
should know of Superior's work IN car
ing for 5000 families, left homeless by
the forest fires. They were Minnesota
families, and that state did all it could,
but bridges were burned, and the peo
pie who were on that side towards Wis
conssn, had to be taken care of in Su-
perior, for they couldn't get into

first thought was to express her graft
tude to the Commission for Relief in
Belgium for preserving the lives of
millions Of her citizens.
Germany, on the other hand, need
not figure in such map for Ameri-
cans because there is no present indi-
cation that we shall be called on at all
to take thought for the food needs Of
Germany. Germany probably can care
for her own food problem If she Is
given access to shipping and is enabled
to distribute food to the cities with
dense populations, which are the trou-
BILE centers.
England, France, the Netherlands
and Portugal, all Of which have been
maintained from American supplies,
have sufficient food to meet immediate
needs, but their future presents seri-
GUS difficulties. The same is true Of
Spain and the northern neutral coun-
tries-Norway, Sweden and Denmark
whose ports have been open and who
have been able to draw to some degree
upon foreign supplies.
Most of Russia is already in the
throes Of famine, and 100000 people
there are beyond the possibility of
help. Before another spring thou
sands Of them inevitably must die.
This applies as we'll to Poland and
practically throughout the Baltic re-
