The Red Cross must rise far above
the chickering's of politics, denomi-
nationalism, business differences,
ETC., in any community, or it will
fail in its great purpose. 1t must
have behind the organization men
and women who are willing to for
get their own selfish and petty
aims and feelings-and all must
work together for the one great hui
name cause. The first injection of
anything except the broadcast
brotherly-love and the purest
Americanism will kill the Red
Cross purposes beyond the hope of
reSuscitation. So beware of be-
coming Red Cross worker with
any but clean hands and unselfish
intentions. The Red Cross repre-
sents justice and unsc!fsbness as
well as worldwide humanity. All
these things are well worth remem-
bering by those who wish the Red
Cross we'll in its mission of love.

Uncle Sam is calling for twenty
five thousand women to join the

The war is making an unprecedent-

as nurses are largely drawn from
our hospitals at home and their
places must be filled by student
nurses enrolled for the full training
course of from two to three years.
The age limit gives opportunity
to many young woman to make
themselves of the greatest possible
use-nineteen to thirty-fve. There
are many who are pining because
their husbands have been taken,
who have this opportunity to give

All SIaCkerS To
Be Rounded Up.

Police and other law officers of
the State are to begin at once a
drive to round up all the slackers.
Chief Barthell intends to find
every Stacker in Nashville at once,
and has asked Major Rutledge Smith
to instruct regiStrants as to their
Every man must have on his
person at all times his classical
ton card. Registrars will be ask
ed to show their cards at any mo-
ment and at every corner.
The man who has registered and
who has his card on his person will
present it when the officers ask for
it, and he will be glad to do so as a
means of aiding the police in locat-
ing those who are attempting to
dodge service. The Stacker will be
caught, and the man who has regis
tered will not be Inconvenience
Yet he must have his card, SO that
the police may not be hahpered in
their work of rounding up the
slackers.
If a registrant has by any acct
dent lost his card it is his duty to
at once apply to his local board for
a statement to the effect that he
has been classified. Duplicate cards
cannot be issued, but a statement
from the Board, duly signed and'|
authenticated, will be sufficient to
protect registrants whose cards have
been lost.
The drive against the slackers is
to be begun at once in all towns
and cities in Tennessee, and you
may expect at any time to be call
ed upon to show your card. Have |
it ready at all times, and avoid
probable arrest. In event man is
unable to present his card he will be |
arrested and taken to police station, |
where he will be held for govern
ment authorities.
The man who has a classification
card in his pocket is proud of hav-
ing it, and will not hesitate to pre-
sent it when called upon by the po-
lice. There need be no surprise at
being asked for your card several
times day, for the fact that one
officer has seen the reeistrant's card
is no indication that all know he Is !
properly registered. So when caII-
ed on for your card, no matter how
frequently this demand may be
made, hand it out cheerfully, and
help the officers to find the men for
whom they are Searching-the slack
ers. They do not want you if you
have your credentials; they simply |
want to know who has such creden-
tialS. Il
The slacker's day Of grace is nea-
ing its end. He will have to do SER
vice for his country, as well as be |
singled out as man willing to dodge |
his duty when other young man are
freely offering their lives in the |
cause.
Major Smith is determined that
no Stacker shall shall escape, and Of
ficers of the law are equally deter
mined to round up such people.
Bear in mind that loss of card
can be easily remedied by securing
a statement from your board.

President Wilson
On Mob Violence.

lHC lColuCilt Oli July COtL, IS
sued the following statement.
M FELLOW CoUNTRYMEN:
take the liberty of addressing
you upon subject which SO vitality
effects the honor of the Nation and
the very character and integrity Of
our institutions that | think you
will think me justified in speaking
very plainly about it.
allude to the mob spirit which
has recently here and there very
frequently shown its head amongst
US, not in any single region, but in
many and widely separated parts
of the country. There have been
many lynchings, and every one Of
them has been a blow at the heart
of order law and humane justice.
No man who loves America, no
man who really cares for her fame
and honor and character, or who is
truly loyal to her institutions, can
justify mob action while the courts
of justice are open and the govern
ments Of the States and Nation are
ready and able to do their duty,
We are at this very moment fight
ing lawless passion. Germany has
outlawed herself among the nations
because she has disregarded the sa-
cred obligations of law and has
made lynchers of her armies.
Lynchers emulate her disgraceful
example. |, for my part, am anx-
ions to see every community in
America arise above that level
with pride and a fixed resolution
which no man or set of men can af-
ford to despise.
We proudly claim to be the cham
pions Of democracy. If we really
are, in deed and in truth let us see
to it that we do not discredit our
own. | say plainly that every
American who takes part in the &C
ton of a mob or gives it any sort Of
countenance is no true son of this
great democracy, but its betrayer,
and does more to discredit her by
that single disloyaty to her stand.
ards of law and of right than the
words of her statesmen or the sacri-
fees of her heroic boys in the
trenches can do to make suffering
peoples believe her to be their saw
ior. How shall we commend de-
mocracy to the acceptance of other
peoples, if we disgrace our own by
proving that it is. after all, no pro-
lection to the weak? Every mob
contributes to German lies about
the United States what her most
gifted liars cannot improve upon by
the way of calumny. They can at
least say that such things can not
happen in Germany except in times
of revolution, when law is swept
awawl
| therefore very earnestly and
solemnly beg that the governors of
all the States, the law officers of
elery community, and above all,
the men and women of every COM
munity, in the U. S., all who revere
America and wish to keep her name
without stain or reproach, will CO.
operate not passively merely, but
actively and watchfully-to make
an end Of this disgraceful evil. 1t
cannot live where the community
does not countenance it.

pat its great energy into this war
and it has responded responded
with a spirit and a genius for &C
ton tl.at has thrilled the world.
