THE RED CROSS ROLL-CALL

GREAT disasters and misfortunes
are happening all the time
They may occur next in our own
locality. When these big troubles
occur, local agencies can not us
ually cope with them. When fires
and floods and earthquakes take
place, some we'll equipped agency
must be ready to act in minute,
with money and supplies and work
ers ready for the job at the scene
of disaster. This great service is
nobIy and efficiently performed by
the American Red Cross.
Some of it's more notable achieve
ments have been the work OF car
ing for the 100000 suffering re-
fugees in Greece, and their success
in raising and expending over SILL
100000 for the Japanese earthquake
sufferers. During the past year
they rendered service in 80 serious
or great disasters.
People are rather quick to re-
spond to suffering when it occurs
next door to them, but if it is IN
some distant state or foreign land,
thev have a more Indifferent feel
ing. We should be too generous
and broad minded to think that we
can neglect this suffering, just be-
cause it is not located close to our
homes.
The Red Cross has done a noble
work in caring for the disabled
American soldiers and their fam
lilies. Many of these families would
have suffered privation as the re-
turn for their grand service, if the
Red Cross had not been looking
after them. If we meant what we
said when we told the soldiers, as
they departed for battle, that we
would look after them when they
got back, we should support gen.
erously this agency that does so
much for them.
We should not wait for some So
licitor to demand the small fee for
membership in this organization
which is now due. Our consciences
should keep us uncomfortable until
we have taken the initiative and
made our contribution.

MAN, THE KING

MOST men, when they get into
responsible positions, fondly
imagine with the Roman actor,
"Tis this to be a king He
can command all but is awed by
none," but occasionally one who
wears the regal diadem suffers no
such illusions. And such a one is
State Game Warden G. NJ. Willard,
if we may judge by sentiment sub
mitted to The Mail last week by
the head of the state game depart
ment. The enclosure came with q
letter to The Mail regarding the
game code violations in this coun-
ty, and it seems to the editor of
The Mail that it conveys a slight
expression of pessimism as to the
kings sway over his subjects. 1t
follows:
Of all the rulers of the earth
The king of all is man,
He lords it over everything
The air, the sea, the land.
He has dominion over all
The beasts, the birds the human,
Yet usually we find that he
In turn is ruled by woman.
Oh! yes he rules from pole to pole
Yet sorry to relate, OH
When he gets home from his days
rule
He's one darned small potato.

Thoughts and Clouds
By D. MAITLAND BUSHBY
(For the Winslow Mai)

Our thoughts are like
The clouds in the sky;
Some black with foreboding,
And some just gray
With suggestion.
Others that are white,
Shine like beacon,
And seek to tighten
The thunderheads.
Then there are silver ones,
Beautiful to behold.
Like our thoughts, the clouds
Are always drifting,
Passing on, to be forgotten.
And tomorrow, other clouds
Will come,
And other thoughts.
They will be different
In their hue and splendor,
And always man will wonder
Where they go,
And whence they came.

Autumn
By STEVEN HORTON
(For the Winslow Mail)

NV spirit like a gloomy autumn day
Is somber and the chill winds fay
Denuded limbs that shiver in the
blast
For hope like leaves directed me
at last.
Yet why should autumn joyless
seem?
Summer is not dead; only behind
the scene
To change her gown from brown
to green
And this dark time must come be-
tween.
