fund, collected as indemnity.
1t Is impossible for outsiders to try
to take on more than relatively small
part Of the reconstruction work in
France because first estimates show
the total damage amounts to some
thing like $13,0O0,O 100000, or approx
mately the amount raised by the first
three Liberty Loans in America. It's
strictly a national job, this replace
ment of 100000 wrecked homes, 1OO,-
600 of which are mere heaps of stones.
America Is going to contribute some
millions of dollars worth of material
to the rebuilding of devastated France
through the American Red Cross. Our
aid in this direction alone Will be
valuable. 1t Will consist of the dis
tribution of supplies bought by the
Red Cross for the active war work 1t
carried on, which are now stored in
the c.Red Cross warehouses and not
needed urgently by the American
armies.
Large as the Red Cross relief will
be in actual dollars, 1t must still be
viewed as first aid work rather than
the taking on of program of actual
reconstruction, that is, the actual re-
building of demolished cottages.
The Red Cross policy Is to provide,
when it can, the necessary articles
French villagers will need for starting
life anew. During the winter months
there was a big demand for stoves.
Thousands were needed. With one
stove a French family could manage
to get along through the coolest
weather while the home deserted dur
ing war days was made habitable. But
| there were not enough stoves avail
| able to supply one-tenth of the de-
mand When the Red Cross speaks of
reconstruction work these days, 1t has
In mind the providing of such neces
stiles as stoves medicines, and simple
necessities. 1t does not mean, when
speaking of reconstruction to take any
part in the rebuilding of damaged
homes.

Homes Help Community.

y wealthy Englishman once said
that q good home was an institution
for ciyilizing a community, and in
stead of surrounding his own home by
a high hedge, like many in the vicin-
ity, he built about it an open fence.
SO that whoever passed, rich or poor,
might enjoy the beauty of house and
lawn and garden. 1t is q good thing
for the girls of today who are to be
the home makers Of tomorrow, to
grow up with the idea that the home
owes something to The community.
