J (By United Proa to the Bend Bulletin) LONDON, June 21 A delayed of ficial Russian statement reports fusil lades and aerial activity on all the Russian fronts. This statement gives weight to General BrusBiloff's pledge that Russia will fight. If There Were If there were no Red Cross America's part in the world con flict would only be ruthless .war fare. We will be sending forth forces solely to lay waste, destroy and kill. For our-soldiers and sailors, we would give no evidence of the con cern felt at home for their welfare. In our selfish clinging to conven ience, comfort and luxury, we would give no stgn of .the "Spirit of '76," or the splendid quality of sacrifice that strengthened the fingers of our women In the Civil War as they tore their delicate garments into ban dages. Our dollars would be slackers and the soldier boy you told good-bye to, probably would not come back again. But there is a Red Cross America has unsheathed the sword nnd elevated the Red Cross. On every battlefield, our soldlors will not go further than the stretcher bearers of the Red Cross, will not risk their lives more splendidly for sur liberty than the stretcher bear ers do for mercy. Our ally will not love us better for the strength we give his fighting army than the healing we lay upon his wounds. Our boys will fight -3 FOR DAILY EDITION no. ioa IN FIRST DAY HEARTY SUPPORT GIV EN COMMITTEE. Tomorrow Is "House to House" Day and Ladle Will Have Charge of Campaign for Funds Mill Men Give Day's Wages. With only one exception, and that one scarcely worth mention, Bend's business and professional men heart ily responded to the first call of the local Red Cross committee yester day In the first attack in the Red Cross Week; drive. Armed with, pledge cards, receipt books and lists of names of persons opposite which were sums they were asked to pay, the committee was able to put up a strong fight and get everything it went after. Yesterday's drive netted approx imately $5,521, which Includes the pledges made by large firms before the campaign began. Today's activ ities will be confined to the business section and completing the work among the employes at the mills. Tomorrow the ladies will have their Inning. It might be said ithat to morrow 'will be "House-to-House Day," when every housewife will be called upon to make whatever con tribution she may feet able to give. Only one day will be consumed in this campaign of homes and quick responses are urged from every quar ter. The ladies . will conduct this phase of the campaign. Tomorrow's activities will be In charge of a com mittee composed of Mrs. H. K. Brooks. Miss M. E. Coleman, Mrs. E. D. Wilson. Mrs. C. S. Hudson. M TBi Dement , M re' R. Wj Sawyer and Mrs. H. J. Overturf. This com mittee has been selected by the cam paign managers and will add to Its qumber as it sees may be necessary. Yesterday's work among the em ployes of the Brooks-Scanlon Lum ber Co. and The Shevlin-Hixon Com pany was wholly successful. The employes are anxious to match the amounts subscribed by the compan ies, and many besides have personal reasons for giving. It was found in yesterday's campaign at the mill that there were many who had relatives serving in many different capacities in the war, and manifestly were glad to do their bit that the sick or in jured one may be taken care of. One man showed his hand with four fin gers missing, which he Bald he lost when serving with a Canadian regi ment early In the war. One man said, "I have three sons serving in the army and one daughter, in the hospital corps. Sure. I'll give a day's wages, and when you ask for more I'll give that too." One -old man responded with the statement, "l can't fight, so I'll pay. Have 'em take out two days' wages." More than 90 per cent of the men seen gave something in cash to the cause. The week's campaign will closer Monday evening with a big Red Cross dance, to which everybody will be invited. The following are the contributors in yesterday's campaign: No Red Cross more heroically, confident if they fall, that the Red Cross will carry them back of the trenches and do all that skill and love and devotion can do to save their lives. Knowing too, that it a little cross in a foreign land must mark their last resting place, the Red Cross at home will be keep ing want from mother, wife or chil dren. Wherever, war makes need, the Red Cross serves. The service of the Red Cross demonstrates above all that we do not brutally fight to beat down and break a foe. but for liber ty, not so swayed by lust of battle that we cast from the hand of love the symbol of mercy the Red Cross. Thus, even as America fights, America's heart thrills in response to the Red Cross appeal and Ameri can pocketshooks open wide. Thus, even as Oregon gives her young men to the army and tha navy, Blie gives her money to the Red Cross that our defenders muy be de funded. Throughout the state the emer gency appeal of the Red Cross has set In motion an army of volunteer workers that are getting enthusiastic, patriotic, generous response every where. Oregon's dollars are not slacker. 55,521 RAISED
