ROLL CALL OF
THE NATION FOR
THE RED CROSS


tary effort, the cutting of red tape and
the manifestation of those qualities of
human sympathy which government
action cannot display.
What the American Red Cross needs
now is not so much contributions of
money, as the continued devotion and
loyalty of its members. This is pecu-
liarly true of this moment OF transition
from war TO peace. Annual member
ship involves the payment of only one
dollar The moneys thus subscribed
directly for relief are devoted solely
to that purpose
The roll call of the nation is thus
to be called at Christmas time, that
through enrolment in their Red Cross
the American people may send mes
sage to our soldiers still overseas and
to the peoples of the world that we
are not merely content with seeing
our arms united with our Allies in
victory. but that our abiding purpose
is that the love, the sympathy and the
intelligence of all American shall be
re-dedicated to the permanent service
of mankind.

lie when ne really wanted 20 die. he
was so ILL., He said they treated him
with utmost care. and he was un-
stinted in his praise of the Red Cross
hospitals overseas. His account OF his
experience was graphic. He called the
Germans clumsy and told how the
American soldiers. each OF whom was
worth three Germans put the Fritzes
on the run. He said soldier could
stand everything. in the way of hard
ship and they did stand everything.
Sergeant Swartz paid high tribute
TO the French blue Devils" and in
closing. he thanked the ladies of the
whole nation for what they had done
for the men of the service.
Gov. Harrington Speaks
Before closing this splendid meet
ing, the presiding officer. Mrs. Ma
gruder, called upon Our War Cover
nor. Gov. Emerson c. Harrington.
who had come into the hall during the
ceremonies, Mrs. Harrington having
been an interested listener throughout
the program.
The governor. always willing. ever
ready to respond to a cali that is for
betterment of the state and nation,
explained his absence in the early
part of the afternoon, saying he had
been in Baltimore attending meeting
to arrange for a farm. or land COM
mittee to take care of the boys when
they come back, and he wanted Mary
land to be in a position to do as much
for them as any other state. The gov
ernor said the organization of War
Mothers is inspiring, and ought to be
and will be wonderful organization.
He hoped they would accomplish
even q greater work. He said "he
wants to see the boys come home sooL
A great work has been accomplished,
and he hopes to see our boys come
the war that has been won is over,
and peace has been finally declared.
The policing on the other side can be
done by the boys of the other side"
and said the governor, Il hope the
War Mothers of America will stand be-
iAhu tAocC WIZ dAS III ILLS AuOfCAHCnt
We want to get what we fought for.
1t is not question of vengeance, or
revenge, but to my mind, this war was
fought in vain, If at the Peace con-
ference at Versailles. 1t be not de-
cided there shall be no further wars"
The governor said he believed in the
mothers as he did in the boys who
took part in the fight; all had done
their part in different way. War is
an evil thing, il a necessary one.
Somebody is wrong when we have
war.
The object of America was to give to
the world that which would destroy
the demon of Hohenzollern dynasty;
to accomplish the purpose for destiny
God created the world and it has
been our privilege to help in fulfilling
destiny. Had we not come into the
war at the right time at Chateau
Thierry, the war might have been lost.
Admitting America saved the world,
England, France and Belgium, for four
years had kept a world fit to save,
said the Governor in closing, and /
hope the War Mothers will see to it
that it is always kept fit.
The program closed with singing
America"
