RED CROSS ACTIVITIES
Contributed by
MISS LOUISE AVER,
Secretary Olympia Chapter.

This week we have accepted an al
lotment of 140 convalescent robes
AS We had in stock already COM
pleted IA robes we shall need to make
only 1876.
Camp Lewis has sent us guam
tity of -four sacks with the request
that we make them into caps and
aprons for the camp bakers. This is
simple work, but, of course, takes
time.
These are indeed busy days. But
the strain of anxiety is gradually re-
taxing, and we no longer work in
the dark or not knowing whether
our work is appreciated. Appreciat-
ed! Every day there come fresh
words of acknowledgement and sto-
ries Of Red Cross helpfulness in ev-
cry corner of the world. A soldier
in France writes to me:
"All news of the Red Cross that I
can give is good. We come closest
in contact with it at the evacuation
hospital to which we carry patients.
At many of them are Red Cross can
teens or at least places where hot
cocoa. etc, is served.
Just imagine driving into a hos
pital some time in the early hours of
the morning before day light, after
several hours of driving through cold
and rain and. worst of all, darkness
with four suffering men who all ask
you to go slower over the bumps,
hurry up and get there, and perhaps
one with bullet hole in his stomach
praying for water. Then think of
a nice warm, dry. bright room with
a big kettle of cocoa steaming over a
fire, and you can perhaps understand
our appreciation for the Red Cross.
And, again. during the last drive
where our food was held up so that
we were without a meal for two
days. But along comes a little Ford
marked American Red Cross Outpost
Service which stops near the hospi-
tai, by some dead horses and just
across the street from dead German
lieutenant, and in less time than II
takes to tell it. there is a big kettle
of cocoa roasting"

prisoners say; that but for the Red
Cross food packages sent them from
Switzerland they would have starved.
These packages were sometimes de-
layed in coming and sometimes par
TALLY looted, but enough was left to
save their lives! Hasn't it paid?
And now that the pressing needs
of war are over comes the test of our
faith in this organization. Occa-
sionally some one says, "Oh. / don't
think it is necessary to knit sweat
cas- now" or, What is the use OF
sewing for people in France?" Has
not the Red Cross proved that it
knows better than we do what is
needed? If ever an organization
since the creation of the world had
established it's right to public conf
dence, the Red Cross has done so.
And WE ARE the Red Cross. Let
us therefore not, like the cuckoo.
foul our own nest, but with unwaver-
ing trust in the intelligence and hu-
mainly of our officers, continue to
obey them in peace as in war.
The membership of most of you
in the Red Cross will expire this
month. Arc you to let it lapse? Do
you want to cease being part of
this largest and most genuine of all
peace parties? Do you know of any
other investment of one dollar that
will bring you greater satisfaction
or, in the final analysis, greater ma
terial return that a membership in
the Red Cross?
Your own boy. if he has been in
the army, has received many times
that value. And If we didn't know
it before, this war has taught us that
our own we'll being is directly affect
ed by the happiness or misery OF
every other human being. Be ready,
then. when the Christmas roll call
comes, to do your share.
