Objects and Aims Of Red Cross Work ' Women are the natural housekeep ers; they are house cleaners. They ; lncludn the mltKntlon of distress In In order to answer the inquiries of those who were not able .o hear tho address given by tbe f lei j agent of tbe Pacific division of tho Red Cross on Sunday last, the following data has been prepared: The object of tho American Red Cross is to alleviate and, ob far as possible, to prevent hunman suffering in times of peace as wetl as in time of war. ' When it wao organized in 18fi3 its aim was, of course, to rende- medical aid to the army, but in 190S its scope was extended by act of congress to feel the responsibility for honesty, economy, sanitation, right living more than men do. Perhaps our work can be established on no surer foundation than a decided effort to build up local conditions. i . s MOTHER FATHER'" I 1 NATURE TIME i I yW0 ' Vfr EXPERTS IN TOBACCO I I . sMim m liEADQUAETEBS Kptf I i n i Partners: Father Time Ages VELVET: Mother Nature Mellows It. An Unbeatable Team: Time and Nature When tobacco manufacturers try to substitute hurry-up curing methods for slow, natural ageing of tobacco, you smokers pay the price. There is no better method of bringing out the mellowness and mildness of "Ken tucky's best" than two years natural age ing in wooden hogsheads. VELVET is Kentucky's best Burley tobacco aged by Nature's method, the patient method, the expensive method, but the best method known to man. Think about that over a pipe of VELVET. Thar ain't a whole lot of differ ence between a ripe persimmon an' a nearly ripe oneon the outside. Some of these nearly matured tobaccos sorter favor v VELVET in looks. m cases of national or International ca lamity, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, famines, mine explosions and the like. Since 1905 the Red Cross has conducted more than eighty re lief operations of this character. A later extension of the work of the Red Cross is the first aid depart ment, added in 1910, in order to bring nn acquaintance with accident prevention and first aid within the reach of Industrial workor-? and oth er Interested clnsses of people.

It is generaHy conceded that the clays pro cured in Clatsop county by th's com pany will make excellent ware, tha raw material being a local product. and the coat of manufacturing ware being largely absorbed by labor, this plant should, when fully developed, rank high among Oregon industries.
