LOST HIS %FURLOUGH

During the war when a soldier of
the allies captured a German he was
rewarded with a furlough on bringing
the captive into camp. An Idaho boy
WAS bringing in a Hun he had caught
when the prisoner was killed by a
shell.
sThere goes my f%urlough," he said
ruefully, call shot to hell" That
seems to describe the situation with
the Nonpartisan League. The state
committee of the league has been
meeting here. The league captured
certain situations, but while they
were bringing the victims into camp
they were call shot to hell" The
farmers themselves did it. They be-
came tired of the endless round of
putting up, of dictation from North
Dakota, Of unsatisfactory demands
for financial accounting and deter
mined to put a stop to it. The lead
ers, in their feathered nests, as the
farmers put it, refuse to be dis
lodged so the farmers, in large num-
beers simply moved out, leaving the
league, composed mostly of paid of
ficers. The paying privates have
withdrawals. Maries Gazette.

"As for work among the French peO-
pie, now that hostilities have ceased.
The French themselves naturally pre-
fer as far as possible to provide for
their own. 1t has accordingly been de-
termined that the guiding principle Of
Red Cross policy in France henceforth
shall be to have punctilious regard to
its every responsibility, but to direct
it's efforts primarily to assisting
French relief societies. The liberated
and devastated regions of France have
been divided by the government into
small districts, each officially assigned
to designated French relief organi-
zation.
The American Red Cross work In
GRANGE was initiated by a commission
Of eighteen men who landed on French
shores June -, 1917. Since then
some 5000 persons have beeh upon the
coils in France, Of whom 1000 were
actively engaged when the armistice
was signed. An indication Of the pres
ent scale of the work will be obtained
from the fact that the services of 5000
persons are still required.
Cur American EXpeditiOnary Force
having largely evacuated England, the
activities of the Red Cross Commits
sion there are naturally upon dimin-
ishing scale period. Active operations
are still in progress in Archangel and
Siberia.
The work in Italy has been almost
entirely on behalf of the civilian pop
ulatiOn of that country. In the critical
hours of Italy'S struggle the American
people, through their Red Cross, sent
a practical message of sympathy and
relief, for which the government and
people of Italy have never ceased to
express their gratitude.
Supplies and Personnel to Near East.
THE occasion for such concentra-
ton of effort in Italy, England, Bel
GUM and even in France Having natur-
ally and normally diminished, it has
been possible to divert supplies and
personnel in large measure to the aid
of those people in the Near East who
have hitherto been inaccessible to out
side assistance, but whose sufferings
have been upon an appalling scale.
The needs of these peoples are so vast
that government alone can meet them,
but the American Red Cross is making
an effort to relieve Immediately the
more acute distress.
"An extensive group of American
workers has been dispatched to carry
vitality needed supplies, and to work
this winter in the various Balkan cOun-
tries. In order to coordinate their &C.
tivities, a Balkan commission has been
established, with headquarters at
Rome, Italy from which point alone
all the Balkan Centers can be reached
promptly.

Red Cross Will Continue.
RED Cross effort is thus far flung
II will continue to be so. But the
movement represented by this work
has likewise assumed an intimate place
in the daily life of our people at home.
The army Of workers which has been
recruited and trained during the war
must not be demObilized. All our ex-
perience in the war shows clearly that
there Is an unlimited field for service
Of the kind which can be performed
with peculiar effectiveness by the Red
Cross. What its future tasks may be
it is yet impossible to forecast. We
know that so long as there is an Amer
lean army in the field the Red Cross
will have a special function to perform.
Nothing could be of greater impor-
lance to the American Red Cross than
the plans just set in motion by the five
great Red Cross societies of the world
to develop a program of extended ac-
tivities in the interest of humanity
The conception involves not alone eff
forts to relieve human suffering, but
to prevent it; rot alone a movement
by the people Of an individual nation,
but an attempt to arouse all people to
a sense of their responsibility for the
welfare of their fellow beings through
out the world. 1t is a program both
ideal and practical. Ideal in that its
supreme aim is nothing less than YER
table peace on earth good will to
men," and practical in that it seeks to
take means and measures which are
actually available and make them eff
fective in meeting without delay the
crisis which is daily recurrent in the
lives of all peoples.
"For accomplishing it's mission in
the years of peace which must lie
ahead of US the Red Cross will require
the ablest possible leadership, and
must enjoy the continued1support, sym
pathy, and participation in its work
Of the whole American people. 1t is
particularly fortunate that such a man
as DR.. Livingston Farrand should have
been selected as the permanent head
of the organization. The unstinted
fashion in which an our people gave
of themselves throughout the war is
the best assurance that our Red Cross
will continue to receive that cO-Opera-
ton which will make its work source
of pride and inspiration to every Amer
lean"
Mr. Dawson, as chairman of the In
ternatimal Commission of the Ameri.
can Red Cross. has undertaken to rep
resent the American Red Cross in the
preparation of the program for extend
ed Red Cross activities, and will spend
