Rev. A.6ORDOh BAKEWELL

Trinity chapel in New Orleans since
1884. He takes keen interest In the
work of the Red Cross and in all waI
activities. He rega rds membership in
the Red Cross a sacred privilege.
But to go on with the story OF wal
without the Red Cross. Reverend
Bakewell can tell only a little part OF
the horrors of such warfare. One OF
the things that the soldiers suffered
most from was monotony-yes. and
the blues" The soldier Of today does
not know what that word means with
the Red Cross and canteen workers
and the Y. NJ. C. A. TO entertain him
when he is well and TO care for him
when he Is III or wounded. Read the
following extract from the diary of n.
NJ. Baker. a chaplain OF the One Hum
dred and Sixteenth Illinois regiment,
TO get an idea of the camp life In the
days Of eighteen sIxty-something.

firing for so long a time becomes mo-

how the boys leave on their rude
pranks and settle down as demure Al
kittens. She stops and talks kindly
TO every group and the boys all feel
better after IT. They are as polite and
proper in their conduct toward each
other for full FIVE minutes after she Ia
gone as If they had suddenly beeL
transported TO civilization and TO the
drawing room Oh. what a refining and
restraining influence even this wom-
an can exert. She Is an old lady
and not handsome. but TO use the ex-
preston of the boys. She has a soul a.
large as a wagon wheel and somehow
I reminds them all of their mothers"
Here is another typical day in camp
described In the same diary:
"Rained today. Oh. how tedious q
rainy day is In campi We eat break
fast, then lie down. then get up, eat
dinner, and lie down again. etc. etc.
Nothing to read, nobody to talk TO.
nothing TO do but to dream Of home
and loved ones"
Even these few stories cannot half
describe war without the Red Cross.
What about the food the soldiers had ]
What about the conditions In the hos
pitals? These questions can be an
swered from the diary Of another Civil
war veteran, Frank l.. Richardson. a
well-known New Orleans attorney. who
entered the war when a lad of seven
teen. and unfortunately spent most of
the time between those years Of 1861
1865 In army hospitals.
'No one can appreciate the work of
the Red Cross as well as we Civil war
veterans" says Mr.. Richardson.
THAT is why | am proud TO have my
own daughter so to France and do her
part"

ing the Civil war? Why, bless you,
there was no such thing-nor any 9TH
er organization to relieve the suffering
and distress of the wounded soldiers"
And Rev. Gordon Bakewell sighed
deeply and there was a break in his
voice as he reviewed those days Of
warfare in which he took so active a
part
with due respect to our boys. they
VIII never see war as we have seen It."
continued Reverend Bakewell. thanks
TO the noble work of the Red Cross.
In those days there were more who
died through ignorance, lack Of proper
attention. and avoidable disease than
from the Yankees bullets. As for those
that were killed, their lot was fortu-
nate compared to that Of the poor,
wounded wretches-
ITO be sure. We chaplains did our
bit in the line of doctoring and nursing.
During a big battle we were ct the
front among the soldiers. cheering on
the fighting. rendering what assistance
We could To the wounded and praying
with the dying.
'-Trainingi Why. two days on the
battlefield was all the training we re-
quired. ! tell you We were experts on
