YOUR RED CROSS
An Ars.y W1ftsss . Gns
By MEREDITH NICHOLSON
b. MEREDITH MIC
: a. ~ vlG1oantsa,

HE Red Gross IS the greatest instrument Of
mercy the world has ever seen. Noble as the
service Of mercy and helpulness was IN Civil War
days. the Red Cross surpasses it immeasnably not
only in the range and variety Of It's effort but in
efficiency and effectiveness
The Red Gross is. we may say. the arms Of the
mothers Of the world reached out to their sons to
bind up their wounds and comfort them. The Red
Gross is an army usfhou Ssas that wages wi
only upon suffering and heartache. Where the
flag Of the stars goes there the banner Of the Red
Cross must fly beside it. We watch our boys 20
forth to with spirit Of hopefulness because we
know that this great agency Of humanity presses
close behind them: that its work IS not incidental
but the intelligent directed effort Of one Of the
most marvellous organizations ever contrived by
American genius.
We have, all contributed to the Red Cross: we
shall be called upon again to contribute to its
funds. again and perhaps again. And we will
respond again and yet againl For this IS war for
the defense of civilization and we Of great. free.
splendid, glorious America. have every intention
that it shall be fought with the army Of the Red
Cross solidly supporting om soldiers

able to celebrate the day with the
horrors Of war off our mind. Then.
too the end has come with our men

who has given the rest of the world
the eo%liest, bitterest four years of
it that history could ever tell through
all the past, has been beaten.-and
destroyed. The GermaW we will,
know in the future will he different

II we could recite nothing other
than this one thing, it would be orr
cause for celebrating with the great.
est of happiness. for nothing in our
lives has seemed to mean so much
as the destruction of the German
miiitarist. The world is at peace
again for the most part and it ought
b he a happy Christmas for MANY
millions Of people. 1t ought even 10

pOrtan 10" of driving at safe rate Of
arced through lie streets In other
crmnmL,lies nc such speed as is the
practice here is permitted. It has
been long time since a child could
go safely into the street in the resi-
dence section of the town. Recently
two children had but left a spot in
The front yard Of their own home
when two, cars came full. tilt, one
down a main street and the other on
a cross street. They colided and
the larger car knocked the smaller
over into the yard just where the
children had stood a moment before.
if they had remained on the spot a
minute, almost sure death would
have overtaken them.
Many like instance has occurred
But in some manner, the damages
have been light This good fortune
sannot always be kept up. Death
will come to somebody if the speeding
is permitted to go on indefinitely The
wonder is that so many escape when
we come to think of the great number
of close calls people have with cars.
People get careless They are ac:
customed to driving and do not al
ways remember the peril. The
streets OF Cordele are not the only
place where danger is courted. 1t is
daily occurrence on all roads in may
places. The Central of Georgia Rail-
way Company has been observing the
actions of drivers of automobiles in
Dawson, and reports that on the
Main street crossing in that city 500
automobiles passed in twelve hours
OF this number only eleven stopped
before crossing the railroad, eighty
one drivers of cars looked one way,
forty'five looked both ways before
crossing the tracks, and 372 crossed |
without looking either way. And
strange to relate most of the. drivers
lived to tell the tale"

OH POOR SOLDIER!

The soldier who reads much Of
the newspaper discussion Of plans
/ for prOvidings means OF living for
| him on his return from the war must
get the idea that he would much rath-
er stay on the battlefront than try to
take his medicine" from so many
well wishers who have impractical
and impossible ideas as to his future
occupation
There has been so much ridiculous
suggesting of ways to provide employ
ment for the soldiers that il is indeed
q fortunate thing that so many of
them are in France where they will
not see much of it. All the Stiffness
in the world piled up in a big heap
would not equal that eminating from
the friends of the soldiers who would
find something for them to do when
they get back home
One good contemporary even sug-
gests that in providing farms for the
soldiers we ought to make them com
munity farms in order to eliminate
the loneliness feature. This good
friend went on to suggest that the
soldier would be more willing to go
to his farm if he had company,
No, he would not be willing then.
He is going back to the work he did
before the war broke out He is going
TO get back the same place he held
before he went to the war
That is what will happen in most
asses, In others. there will be so
much work open on all sides they
will fall to the business they most en-
Joy and the world will go on down the
years with these men helping to
luild bigger. better business
Some of them will come back wound.

will be blind Others will carry old
"ounds as long as they live, but for

1e let alone about providing work for
Iaem, They were not objects of char,
ly before they went to the war. Why
.ow should the public have to find
aomething for them to do?
The best thing to do is to find
ONE method of assuring them that
on have appreciated their work at
he front. Every soldier is going to be
xtremely on the alert when he
