bathing places along the coasts, riv-

constant headway. The demands for
instruction from organizations in all
parts of the country were so numer
GUS the past year that it was neces-
sary to more than double the staff of
Red Cross instructors. This work OF

an enrolment of over 10000 volun-

Five Thousand

Three days before, Hank. wounded
In the arm, had ridden up to the cabin.
No questions were asked Of him-thas
Is not the mountain way. But Hank
suspected that his identity was known.
And the five thousand dollars placed
upon his head would mean a fortune
to this poor, ignorant young couple
struggling along with their few noun

Five thousand dollars! Hank had
shot the sheriff, who tried to intercept
him after his escape from the peniten-
dary. The sheriff had recovered,
crippled for life. Twenty years faced
him.
Five thousand dollars! He had
never been worth a quarter Of that
sum. If he had had Ave thousand dol
lars years before Molly would not have
divorced him. Molly and her husband
were happy, but very poor; and there
was the kid-Hank's own kid, brought
up In ignorance that his father was
alive.
Hank would have given his liberty
to have let the boy have his chance In
the world. Molly would see to that

through his brain dissolved as he
heard that stealthy whispering through

RED CROSS MET TEST

the Presidents desire came AZ An or

the entire machinery Of the organi1a-
ton was put in motion and within "A
hours the fund cam paign was moving
with vigor in every part Of the ceun-
try.
This emergency test demonstratsA
the peacetime readiness Of the Red
Cross to cope with stupendous tasks
in behalf Of humanity. Within .

$1o,250, 900 in contributions, landed
ten cargoss of supplies At japanese

the United States. This work, with
activities carried over from the previ-
GUS year, required the expenditure in
the United States of 1897, ,46S.04 by
the American Red Cross, it's Chapters
and Branches. In the emergency fol-
lowing the defeat of the Greek forces
in Turkey and the burning of the city
OF Smyrna, which entailed the relief
of nearly 100000 men, women and
children, Red Cross National Head
quarters expended s2,605 5000. The
food distributed in Greece aggregated
25,000 tons: garments, S09,000; blan-
kets, 1850; new shoes, 5000 pairs;
medical, hospital and sanitary sup
plies. 304 tons. In the feeding of the
refugees there was listed upwards Of
$4,000 children under three years Of
age.
The disasters in the United States
during the past year reported 240 per-
sons killed, 991 injured, 1881 rem
dered homeless. The total property
loss was estimated at $40, 710 900.
Relief of suffering caused by disas-
ters of such magnitude as to over
whelm the resources of the communi-
ties in which they occur is fundamen-
tai to the charter Of the American
Red Cross. In addition to making ap-
preparations from its treasury and as
signing trained personnel to relief
work, the Red Cross in disaster cen
tralizes and makes more effective re-
lief funds and supplies contributed by
the country at large
Since 1881 the Red Cross has ad-
ministered more than S20000,000 for
the single purpose of disaster relief.
That it may continue to accept the re-
sponsibilities which grave emergen-
cies place upon the American Red
Cross appeal is made for a nation
wide renewal of membership during
the annual roll call which opens on
Armistice Day, November Il. and
closes on Thanksgiving Day, Novem-
