lecting either compensation or inSur-
ance.
A member of the women's uniformed
corps drove us in her machine out to q
camp where there are 10000 men.
Here we met the Red Cross Home
Service man. We didn't take his time
we just watched him. One moment
he was helping man to fill out dupli-
cate allotment blanks; the next he
was arguing the merits of insuring 10
the limit; the next he was wiring &

family; next he was going with a boy
who had received a tragic telegram
from home to see the commanding Off
Ger about leave Of absense; then he
was speeding on his way a poor fellow
discharged because of permanent in
jury; then we saw him talking to q
soldier and girl wife at the hostess
house: and as the shadows fell he Has
cloSeted with worried chap, who waa
telling him about an impending mort.
gage foreclosure and an expected baby.
V.
Later the same evening we saw him
stand up in the Liberty theater and,
his eyes glowing with the service pic
ture in his own mind and his voice
ringing with the conviction of his own
enthusiasm, tell thousand young fell
lows what Home Service is. He paint
ed homes made happier by Home Serv-
ice-told of friends for fighters fami-
lies found by the Red Cross--pictured
devoted Home Service workers fight
ing the country's battles this side the
trenches. When he ended some fellow

We were silent for long while on

Smith broke ont:

said, The thing most needful to the

tribute to the morale Of the men in

DYNAMIC RED CROSS MONEY
Bv FRANKLIN K. LANE,
Secretary Of the interior.

OUT of the $500, O0O 600 given last June by the
" American people to the Red Cross, nearly
one-half ($45 600, 000) has gone to help the
REFUGEES the orphaned children the repatriates and
wounded of the French, Belgian, Italian Serbian,
Roumanian and other peoples
The Red Cross has spent more than $50, ,O00,-
OOOin France alone in the establishment Of canteenS
for the polus, the reconstruction Of devasted dis
tricts the care of homeless Children the housing Of
refugees, the sending Of food clothes and supplies
to the sorely burdened civilian population. More
than S2 600 900 has been spent in fighting tubercu-
losis one of the worst of wars yproducts 81, 49,,
OOOhas been expended for the shelter ofwar orphans
$2 709 736 has been appropriated for the reconstruct
ton of villages and general relief work IN the dew
asted areas.
In Italy great work of relief was organized
after the AustroG German drive of last fall and the
thousands of refugees that came pouring over the
Pc and the Piave were aided by business-like and
farreachng supply and canteen service, lmprovlsed
out of the existing organization. More than
S., OOO, 900 was thus spent for Italy.
American funds will soon make the plain Of
Monastir fertile once more through the importation
ofseeds and agricultural Implements Inthis section
of Serbia more than fifty thousand refugees have
been on the verge of starvation for nearly two years
1t should be a source Of daily pride to every
American that our own Red Cross is adding new
glories to the American Name in the Mother
Continent Our full support is essential if its pres
ent mighty work of succor and human brotherhood
is to be continued on an ever increasing scale.

well" said Smith as he walked
into my office, 1--WE wound up all my
business interests"
..\<h;t RI" l said as l rose to
greet ihe man I had known in my
home city years before.
$50 I could offer myself if I'm worth
having. I've sot to get into the game
Anything useful and human. I'm
ready for marching orders
"Worth having?" I eel you've
dropped like a God-send. we've got
the biggest man-sized job you ever
tions. You're going straight with the
Home Service. Something useful and
human? Why, in week this thing
will be gripping you so that you'll eat
and sleep it!'
The Home Service Section Of big
Red Cross chapter was in session. AS
Smith and l arrived they were discuss
ing the problem of soldiers wife and
six children found living in two tene-
ment rooms in building that rad been
condemned because of a leaky roof,
mouldy floor and lack of fire protection.
They had sold most of their furniture
piece by piece for current living ex-
penses. TIE children had no change Of
clothing. There was no income and, be-
cause of the mothers condition, no pos
sibility of one, except the expected allot-
ment and allowance, which even when
it came would not entirely meet tfle cost
of living in the city. The Home Service
worker had given a generous sum OF
money 20 meet the urgent needs, and
now the committee was planning to
rent better quarters. move The faml-
]v. secure medical and nursing atten-
ton for the woman, outfit them all
with clothing and furniture and keep

In Smiths next case the Home Serv-
Ice Section and the tuberculosis society
had arranged hospital care for man
discharged because OF tuberculosis

Some attorney had told him he would
get compensation for him on fifty-df-

Home Service Section helped him fill
out The proper form which the Red
Cross office supplied and assured him
that NO discharged soldier or soldiers
