TO SAVE LIVES.

He was a TALL slim young person, and as he
stood and told his story in his simple language,
he seemed just boy. He had gone out to fight
for his country other boys have gone with
high sense of pride, with a logged courage and
with determination to carry on till the very
end of the conflict War was not what he had
pictured it. 1t had not that dash and spirit that
golden glamour of which he day dreamed. Tt was
cruel and sordid and unspeakably wearisome.
There were weeks of waiting, there were
months in the trenches, there were long marches,
and then one day, without any warning, his bat
talon was in the thick of the fight.
Even as he fought it all seemed unreal. And
then his comrade fell, lad like himself and
he stopped and knelt beside him and staunched
his wound. And taking from the pocket of
his tunic his first aid packet, he dressed the
wound of the boy who lay a-dying
When he fell himself, and consciousness came
slowly back to him, his hand instinctively reach
ed for his first aid dressings. And then he re-
membered. He had given his own package to
his friend, and now he must wait until the
stretcher bearers came on their ceaseless round.
And as he lay there for twelve long hours, he
thought of the Red Cross at home, he knew that
they would find him after awhile, he knew that
he would be cared for, if there were enough to
go round. Oh, he was very sure of thatl But
the Red Cross required money.
If it had not been for that, the lad who had
fallen beside him would have had his own little
Red Cross package of First Aid appliances. But
there had not been enough to go round, that was
the trouble.
Weeks later, after the Red Cross stretcher
bearer had found him, and his limb had been
amputated, they told him that if he had had the
first aid dressings in time his limb might have
been saved. As he lay, with that throbbing am
putated limb, he not sorry for himself. He
was just a lad, and he felt bit of pride that he
had saved the life of comrade. That was some
thing worth while, anyhow. And yet, even in
his boyish pride, he could not help wondering.
He wondered if the people knew, back home in
England and Canada and America,-did they
know that the surgeons said that ninety per cent
of the cases could be saved, if only they had the
first aid, and did they know that first aid cost
money!? Why the price of meal would save a
lads lifel
Corporal Campbell spoke to the people of Pen
sacola, and his experience at the front
vouches for the truth of this story. Think of
it! Ninety per cent of the lives of the boys saved
just by these little packages of first aid appli-
ances. That is one thing your Red Cross money
will do.
