The FIRST SQUARE MEAL
How Red Cross Has Fed italian
Prisoners.

Last spring the Red Cross workers
at Berne were busy arranging to care
for the American soldiers who were
taken prisoners by the Germans, and
now the new exchange agreement
means that Italians from Austria on
their way back to Italy are being
cared for In hundreds. They are a pa
thetic lot, these grand blesses"-the
hopeleSsly wounded men-but they are
always delighted with the prospect of
going home, even though it may be
going home to die. Nearly all of them
are tubefcular.
The method employed is this: The
italian Government sends a train into
Austria through Switzerland to gather
up the men released under the ex-
change agreement. The train crosses
the Swiss border and at Buchs is met
by delegations from the allied Red
Cross organi ations, and under the
present plan the food is furnished by
the American Red Cross To many of
these men this is the first square meal
that they have had for years. Cloth
ing is also furnished them. Each man
of the 800 which each train carries is
given cigarettes and a small American
flag, and many who have been in
America, some of whom have taken
out their first papers, are overjoyed at
the bit of red, white and blue and most
demOnstrative in their delight.
The representatives of the Red Cross
remain on the train until 1t reaches
Zurich, then return to Switzerland
again.
1t is the food which America has
sent over which gives to these men
their first meal-foOd which has been
saved by eating smaller portions, and
by going without.

RED CROSS SUPPLIES.

The varied character of the supplies
which the American Red Cross pro-
vides for American soldiers and sail
ors is shown in the following list of
articles furnished in one recent month
to our fighting men in Great Britain /:
10000 sweaters, 10000 tOothbrusheS
$4,000 pairs of socks, $4,000 pounds of
soap, 100000 boxes of matches, 800
baseball outfits, 500 mouth organs,
$4,000 packages Of chewing gum,
100000 cigarettes. For handling
these supplies, the Red Cross has sew
en- warehouses in England and six in
Ireland. At the Irish stations there
are stores of clothing, first aid outfits
and other necessaries to provide
amply for any emergency which may
arise through the torpedOing of ships
carrying American soldiers or sailors.
If necessary, 5000 shipwrecked Amer
leans could, be QUILTED from head to
foot at one time from these emergency
depots Advance arrangements have
also been made for billeting, housing
and feeding any number of men who
might unexpectedly be landed at ports
where there are no British military
camps.

ESTABLISH MODEL
FARMS IN FRANCE

A model farm has been established
by the American Red Cross at COurbet,
for it has been found that farm work
is one of the very best means of hasten
ing the recovery of those men suffering
from shell shock. One farm of 500
acres has been laid out in the depart
ment of Indre-et-Loire that is planned
and is to be managed after the meth
DDS pursued in our own great farming
regions of the West.
Since these farms will be worked al
most entirely by the cOnvalescent sol
diers and those made unfit for active
service, the expense of maintenance
will be very little.
But the saving of human life will be
enormous. And every farmer in this
country who enrolls in the Christmas
Red Cross Roll Call will be helping in
directly to carry on this reconstruction
work among the mutilated soldiers in
France.

Canadian Appreciation.

And what names were ever better
earned than those thus rendered to
Uncle Sam? (On July 4 last.) They
would be strange allies whose hearts
would not be warmed by such loyalty
and sleepless energy as the United
States has shown for the cause of the
entente from the moment it declared
war on Germany. No friend in need
could make more strenuous and sus-
tanned efforts to hasten to lend hand
than the United States has kept up
from the beginning of its belligerency.
Difficulties that seemed insurmOunt-
able to anything but American re-
sourcefulness have been overcome, and
from this time forth the United States
will have to be reckoned with as a
heavyweight in the war.-TOronto Mail
