HERE'S TO OUR YOUNG PEoPLEl

Hundreds of thousands of young men
and women, all over the United States,
have resumed their studies in the schools
and colleges of the nation.
The ambition, the enthusiasm and the
ideals of these young people are of strik-
ing significance. Marked mostly by its
absence, as compared with other groups,
is the greed and selfishness that distin-
guish the calculated policies of older per-
sons.
The Citizen has never been among
the calamity howlers who insisted that our
young people are going to the dogs. =
They are the great asset of the ,nationaand
throughout the world the great hope of the
human race. We have abiding faith in
them and trust in their development i'm
plicitly.
OF course. it is not given to the eyes
of youth to see with the wisdom of age
but many older people would give all the
wealth that they have accumulated to
possess the fine spirit of youth. facing the
world as a brave adventure and resolutely
determined to make their contribution to

WE ARE AMAZED

The so-called human race presents
many puzzles to the student of human
nature.
We are not so much amazed at the
ignorance that prevails among men as we
are at the unwillingness of normal men
and women to use the brains that generous
nature has provided.
Number two, in our catalog of won-
der, is the ease with which comparatively
ignorant persons give judgment upon peo-
pie, issues and events. 1t is often revela-
ton to listen to an ignoramus with a
loquacious tongue
Number three, if anybody wants to
know, is composite of two capacities in
the human specimens that we meet in all
walks of life. We marvel at the capacity
of the average men and women for good
ness and, at the same time, in awe, we
shudder at their capacity for evil.
If we proceed further along this line
by giving you our fourth item we might be
led into long discussion of people and
that is not what we have in mind There
is undoubtedly a number four, but, just
for fun, we will let you figure it out for
yourself.

MESSENGERS OF MERCY

Anyone who has gone through hurri-
cane, conflagration, tornado or flood
knows the scenes of utter confusion that
Immediately follow such disasters. Pro-
tected water supplies are disrupted, medi-
cal supplies are scarce, food resources are
soon exhausted and the situation gets be-
yond control of local authorities. Unless
outside aid is not soon forthcoming, there
is starvation, privation and desperation.
But outside aid must be marshalled
and dispatched to the affected regions.
There is only one agency organized on ma
tional scale to provide efficient, prompt
and adequate relief measures. In every
town, village, county and city in the United
States there are representatives of that or
ganization. At Washington and at other
strategic points, that organization has ex-
perienced personnel ready to move into a
disaster area on moments notice. 1t has
at its command army officers and men,
doctors, nurses, trained relief workers
That agency is the American Red
Cross. 1t stands alone in its field. 1t is
headed by the President of the United
important persons in the nation. They
give their time and their money to the
cause of relief. The regional secretaries

carnations are planned to meet all emer-
gencies. The members come from all walks
of life and to each active member. is as
signed definite task when disaster
strikes.
No organization can function without
funds. 1t must have large reserve of
ready cash to meet emergencies when they
arise. 1t must be able to finance money
raising campaigns when the cash reserves
are inadequate to meet emergencies.
Armistice Day the Key West Chapter
of the American Red Cross will open its
annual membership drive. The goal is

of the money raised locally will be spent
