When a lot is bought she puts

DO POST WAR WORK

Volunteer Red Cross workers from
towns throughout Southwest Texas
met in San Antonio Monday morning
at the st. Anthony hotel in n region
al conferece that is held as prelim-
mary meeting TO the annual Red
Cross Roll Call. Subjects connected
with local. divisional and national
work were discussed by delegates who
are attending the conference.
The lublic has a right to demand
an accounting of all money received
by the Red Cross. according TO VIII
liam NJ. Baxter. division manager of
the southwestern division. which is
composed of the states of Colorado,
New Mexico, Texas. Oklahoma, Ark
ansas. Kansas and Missouri. The
success of the work depends on local
chapters outlining Il program showing
contributors exactly how their sub
scriptions are being used. he said.
In explaining the work being done
by the national organization. Mr.. Bax-
ter stated that an extensive program
of postwar work is still being done.
The cost Of this work will aggregate
over S2.000.000 this year. About 40
workers are maintained in hospitals
which are treating ex-seryice men, lie
said.
What They DO.
: Red Cross workers direct the activi-
ties of the patients in the hospital for
mental patients at Little Rock. car
ing for them on picnic trips into the
woods, providing girls to take part
: in dances, and doing everything pos
sible to keep the patients in n whole

Another large branch of the nation
al work consists of emergency SER
vice in time of disaster. Mr.. Baxter
states. Within four hours after a
cyclone had destroyed Colorado City.
Tex, the chapters at FL Paso and
Fort Worth had wired national head
quarters that they were ready TO de-
part for that place. where there was
no active chapter. Approximately a
per cent oi all chapters are i'll coun-
:ies with less than $4,000 population,
he said.
The conference was opened by Judge
A. w. Seeigson. of San Antonio.

HOW RED CROSS WORKS.
William \. Baxter Says Natural
Program Is Needed.

To accomplish definite results. full
aud complete. programs. national in
scope, are necessary for Red Cross
work, is the opinion OF William y.
Baxter, principal speaker III the
morning meeting of the regional con-
fernce of the American Red Gross,
held in San Antonio Monday.
Mr.. B,xter illustrates his point by
citing several cases Of ex-service men.
One man joined the army in New
York under an assumed name. as Il
single man. He was injured and de-
yeloped tuberculosis, and was admit.
! ted to the hospital in this part Of
the country. He was receiving COM
pensation under the name he had
enlisted with. which did not allow
him any money for the support Of
his family.
He finally confided what he had
done 10 the Red Cross worker in
his hospital who had to bring all the
machinery of the organization into
play TO prove that he was the mau
he claimed 10 be, TO prove that he was
legally married, aud that he was en-
titled TO dependency compensation.
land To reinstate him legally. Finger
prints. birth certificates. and affi-
suaVlts OF every glnd had TO be gotten
Together before the government could
5reinstate him. legally. These proofs
had 10 be gathered through Red Cross
Chapters in every part of the country
where the man had lived and brought
every part of the service into play.
Not Always Money.
Sometimes the service given is not
a question Of money. but of expert
enced advice. A tubercular patient
from Arkansas had been followed 10
this part of the country by his wife
and small child, in order to live near
him. The wife had developed tuber-
culosis from him through ignorance
of proper sanitation. and it was fear
ed that the child might do the same
thing. The mans compensation from
the government was sufficient to pro-
vide for his family. but the problem
was TO persuade his wife to take suf-
ficient care of herself and of her
baby. and 10 induce her TO stay away

Bishop Dickcy delivered an elo-
quent sermon before proceeding with
the dedication ceremony: selecting as
his text portion of the first verse
of the 32d chapter of the book of
Exodus: Up. make us gods. which
shall go before us: for as for this
Moses we wOt not what has become of
him."
The bishop declared that many peo-
pie make for themselves idols. but few
of them worship the things themselves.
but that which they represent. For
example. few people worship money.
but they crave the gold for what it can
bring 10 them. 1t may be power, social
position. or something else that money
can bring. Money opens the way to
many things.
Israel was in slavery in a land
OF idolatry. and when the proclama-
ton went forth that leader was at

them to lshd flowing with milk and
