of the Red Cross Chapter.
Many Forms Of Assistance
If there is delay before the mans

Chapter lends the man money To meet
the imperative needs of himself and
his dependents.
Most vital to the mans gaining full
benefit from the Governments care is
keeping his mind free from worry about
his home Keeping the veterans fam

Informing him Of its welfare Is an
other province of the Chapter. Free
from fear on this score, the mans re-
