Watch Out for Insurance.

Watch Out for Insurance.
Do you know of any boy in the
army or navy who has not taken out
insurance? If so, either attend to
it yourself or notify the Red Cross.
The time for securing such insur-
ance has been extended to April -.
This insurance means everything to
the soldier, for there is to be no PEN
sion system such as attached to pre-
vious wars. Now a soldier can take
out a policy for $4,000. His pre-
miums will be deducted from his
pay. If he is permanently injured
he will receive a stated sum every
month so long as he lives. If he
survives without disability, he can
continue the policy to his own ad-
vantage. If he loses his life the in
surance is paid to his beneficiary
parent, wife, or child, whose welfare
is of more consequence to him than
anything else.

RED CROSS ACTIVITIES
Contributed by
MISS LOUISE AVER,
Secretary Olympia Chapter.

The question is frequently asked,
and with much show OF reason, why
the work of relief performed by the
Red Cross is not done by the govern
ment. Mr.. Dawson recently ex-
planned very fully why 1t is not.
In the first place, he says, it was
tried and found not to be practicable.
The work Of the Red Cross is largely
emergency work and tho machinery
of the government docs not move
swiftly enough to perform it. The
Red Cross cuts red tape mercilessly
and gets the thing done. The very
fact that it is a voluntary association
and that it's members are not work
ing for profit gives the people con-
fidence in it so that it can proceed
without the cumbersome system re-
quired of government action.
And then there Is the expense.
Think what it costs to collect taxes
and compare that with the Red Cross
war drive, where every dollar COL
lected went to relieve suffering.
There are expenses attached to such
a drive, of course, but they are paid
by those who are able to do SO, and
not out Of your subscriptions; and
the requirements are inf1nitesimal
compared with the governments pom
dorouc mo culinary
But most important of all is the
spirit aroused and nourished by the
opportunity to give without compul-
sion. Humanity naturally wishes to
be fair and generous, but 1t just as
naturally doesn't want to be bilked.
The war has aroused all the latent
generosity in our souls and the Red
Cross gives it a chance to act.
And last but not least, consider
what our government has on its
hands to do just now, and be thank
full that this huge burden of relief
work is not added thereto. This
splendid Red Cross, with its able,
disinterested heads and its millions
of eager assistants, is not burden,
but an opportunity, not only does it
relieve suffering but it gives a safe
and useful outlet to the emotions.

whom are in the Northwestern divi-
sion. Isn't that a powerful army?

1t is not uniting that Thurston
county chapter should express sorrow
for the death of Judge George E.
Morris Of the supreme court.
From the beginning Of the great
catastrophe, Judge Norris interest
in our war work was intense and
practical. Until the last few days of
his illness, on every weekend and
holiday he and Mrs. Morris enter
tanned from two to six soldiers from
Camp Lewis. He said:
II don't want officers and attract
i've men. want just plain ordinary
boys who need some home life."
His admiration of the cleverness
with which Mrs. Morris performed
her many Red Cross duties was a
pleasant thing to see. And up to
within fortnight of his death, when
in constant pain, he bravely refused
to permit her to entirely abandon her
work for suffering humanity across
the seas. A good man, a just Judge,
a patriotic citizen!

Letters From .Over There"

The letters of our boys If France
are full of interest notwithstanding
the censor. One speaks of being in
London and on a dark, unlighted
evening standing at railway sta
ton to see the wounded come in
from the battlefields. Some on
crutches, some blind, many so
wrapped in bandages as to be almost
invisible, but every one Of them
smiling!
Another, whose service requires
him to travel extensively about the
country, sends a word Of cheer. He
says things look better over there
than we think at home: that we
would be amazed at the tremendous
preparations our government has
made. Many praise the Red Cross
and the Y. M. G. A. The latter asso-
citation certainly runs us close Sec
ond. While not 80 broad in its pur-
poses, within its lines of service 1t is
Incompatible.
When the Red Cross finds another
society at work in the devastated re-
gions of France, it promptly CO.
operates with it. For instance 1t
found the Society Of English and
American Friends (Quakers) putting
up little cottages. sending in farm
machinery, providing chickens and
rabbits. to give the poor penniless
people q chance. The Red Cross Inn
mediately offered its help and now
the two 81 cups of workers are acting
together to restore these villages.
The French people think us very
practical because, as soon as possible,
we try to make the despoiled people
self-supporting. With q roof over
their heads, few household utensils,
some chickens and other stock. these
thrifty French families quickly re-
cover their hold on life.

SURGICAL DRESSINGS.
Interminable folds of gauze
For those whom we shall never see.
Remember, when your fingers pause,
That every drop of blood to stain
This whiteness falls for you and me.
Part Of the price that keeps US free
To serve our own, that keeps US clean
From shame that other women know.
Oh saviors We have never seen,
Forgive us that we are so slow!
God--if that blood should cry in vain
And we have let our moment 60!

Speed Up Dressings!

Surgical dressings! That Is where
Thurston County Chapter must speed
up. Your secretary recently visited
a small chapter east Of the noun
tains and found them far outstrip-
ping us in this branch. Many Of the
women there pledge themselves to
cut a bolt of gauze a week. The
rooms are kept open every day. Elk
cuses for non-attendance meet with
high disfavor.

What the Boys Think.

A soldier writes from France:
1--WE sure got to hand 1t to those
men with the Red Cross on their
arms. They all worked like dogs in
that hell out there. They seemed
to have but one idea-to do their
duty-and apparently cared nothing
for their own lives while doing it,"
That this is true is proved by the
fact that the names of certain
number Of men who wear the Red
Cross appear on the casualty lists.
