Our Local Chapter Strong in
Endeavor and Sacrifice,

The commendable work of the
Red Cross Society over the state
of New Mexico, is not only wor-
thy of mention, but should re-
ceive the applause of every lib
erty loving citizen everywhere.
Taking the society as whole.
the press continually offers up
praise to its noble work, but
we wish to here consider and
give credit to olt- local organiza-
ton and its auxilliaries.
When considering the work
that has been done, we are too
liable to view it as a duty per-
formed which requires but small
effort, and dismiss it from our
thought entirely. DO we not
overlook the trials and obstacles
that confront it when working
out problems social and financial

cause?
Patriotic men are sacrificing
their business interests to engage
in the work. Loyal hearted
women, are giving up society
associations to knit, and work,
doing their bit" only thinking
Of the good and welfare Of the
boys at the front, and arranging
entertainments, whereby funds
may be raised for the benefit of
the country in general.
These loyal people, deserve the
highest of praise for their noble
work, and while speaking, we
must not forget the good work
of the fraternal organizations.
The Masons, Odd Fellows,
Knights of Pythias, Elks, Wood
men, Y. M. G. A. X. Of c. and
many other are lending a hand,
while the Eastern Star, Rebecca' s

and Daugters Of the Revolution,
are zealously aiding the Red
Cross cause.
Space forbids us the pleasure OF
making an extended account
Of work that is blessing our laud
and other lands than ours, but
Of our own work here at home in
which we are the most interested,
we can but feebly praise, as
it is deserving Of more than per
can picture or press expose.

But only stand and stare,
Gathered round in reverent mood
My loved ones kneel in prayer

These visions fade away.
And now harken. mother listen!

But promise that with God help
To conquer and to win.
For he will help and bless us
And cleanse our hearts from sin
And if we only trust him
