 [Tbe Red Cross does not aspire to nronolize the task and privilege < finding, unaided, the remedy Tor our ills. It seeks to be the as- +ont rather than the chief, to pplement existing agencies, offlc-
 and volunteer; to stimulate ac- ties when none exist; to place the disposal of the governments pn officials a helpful body of aids, bhilized, organized and trained by chapters. Our most vital prob ns are neighborhood problems, and
 Red Cross, non-sectarian and n-political, can, with its exper- hce to aid, unify the neighbors neighborhood welfare. He who intelligently loves his Euntry in war will consistently love in peace. If a country is worth ling for it is worth living for. hen people shall have learned to erifice themselves as readily on the lar of the common veal as they crificed themselves on the altar war. the world will be saved, and until then.
