spirit that prompts voluntary con-

roll call. We all know of the work
Of love and mercy the Red Cross

Why wait for solicitor to pull

questioned if you question the motive
of the Red Cross. In the face Of the
reliable testimonials of the wonderful
work the Red Cross has done, and is
still doing, If a man now HUNS and
Haws" over giving 81 because the war
is over, or for any reason, he is
considered unappreciative. The glor-

won without the aid of the Red Cross,

relieved by this great organization.
