Red Cross Gray Ladies
Needed by Local Chapter

WOUNDED MEN from the
battlefields Of Europe and the
Pacific are returning daily 10
the military hospitals of the
United States. Added 10 these
thousands Of men are other
thousands who were stricken by
disease, illnesses contracted in
army camps, bivouac areas and
swampy, hot battle fronts. Many
of these men are coming home
10 long difficult days, months
and even years of hospitaliza-
ton.
Perhaps you've been in a hos
pital yourself. If you have, re-
member the long wait before
visiting hours, and remember
the disappointment if you had
no visitors?
Suppose you were III in a hos
pital a thousand miles from Ma
comb County, and suppose you
knew there would be no visitors,
because you didn't know anyone
to visit you?
That would be the case of the
ordinary bed-ridden fighting
man if il were not for the Red
Cross Gray Ladies, who are do
ing for the hoSpitalized service
men what their mothers, wives
and sweethearts would be doing
if they were i'll at home.
When the war came and mill
ions Of young men and women
left their homes for training and
battle stations, the military pre-
pared we'll for these illnesses
and wounds that were TO fol-
low. Good doctors were brought
into the armed services. They
were given the best equipment
Every opportunity that science
had to offer was given TO the CT
for speedy recovery, but there
was still one thing lacking-the
touch of home.
Every sick or wounded boy
needed the loved ones at home,
someone to drop into the hos
pital, someone like his mother
to say the things his mother
would say and listen as mis-
mother would listen. He needed
something more than the best
equipment and a good doctor
could provide.
This need is being met by the
Gray Ladies, Red Cross vol
unteer organization, now greatly
enlarged because of the war.
These women came into military
hospitals with an understanding
of the needs of sick boy, in
many instances an understand
ing that began when she brought
her own son into the world
eighteen or twenty years ago.
So, today while the miracle
of modern medicine works to
heal and mend the bodies of our
servicemen, Red Cross Gray
Ladies are soothing troubled
spirits, performing a hundred
and one little tasks and favors
which speed recovery and build
happiness.
She does for your boy what
she hopes some other mother is
doing for her boy wherever he
may be.
The following local Gray
Ladies spend at least one day a
week at Selfridge Field Hos
pital: Mrs. Mae Halsey, Mrs.
John Bannow, Mrs. Mary Tooth
man, Mrs. William Koehler, Mrs.
John Ahrens and Mrs. Mabel
Sourwine, who is the Macomb
County Chairman Of Gray
Ladies.
They make trips to the PIX for
the patients-shop for them
personally and for gifts to mail
home-write letters-distribute
magazines and make themselves
generally useful land any of you
