ycJR RED CROSS
The Children Who Cried for the Caves
 American Red Cross.


 I. Place de la Concorde, Paris. The caves. Take us to the caves!" ''I want to go in the cellar!"
 Shrill cries from Jean and Marie and Felix and hundreds of other Trench youngsters, huddled together n the little frightened groups, ans wered , booming of the big guns. the cracale of the mitrailleuses, and ti.e intermittent hum of a Boche air. pane.
 The children were gathered in the o,d fort on the hill. overlooking town very close to the front, where the Red Cross takes care of them The cathedral bell had tolled for five minutes, though you could hardly hear 1t for the roar of the guns. and the si- ren had blown. Then the people in the town below had scurried to their cellars. for that was a warning of a raider coming.
 But up on the hill there were no cellars to go 10, and the children clung to the skirts of the nurses in terror In the cellar. they would have been quite content and unafraid. For more months than they could remember they had been living in C. -s in the little shell-swept villages !. .,.r the town. and sometimes in dugouts in the hills. But the Red Cross and the prefect had ana now there were no cellars.
 4 dozen little girls crowded into one big bed. With the bed clothes over your head it was dark; perhaps the bomb wouldn't get you there. Half an hour seemed ten hours.
 Then the guns stopped firing, and it was quiet again. The Boche had gone. Only the restless searchlights still guarded the sky.
 Below there in the town a tenement house had been cut in two A poilu had come all the way from Salonica, two thousand miles away, to see his wife and three children. But the Ger man bombs found them first.
 On the hill the children were safe this time. You can't always be safe from bombs when the Roche carries them But the children are always safe from guns and gas and disease and filth and hunger. So much safe ty the Red Cross can and does give them for the sake of tomorrow in France
