AMERICA'S WOMEN JOINED IN ANTHEM OF SERVICE Millions of Red Cross Workers Do Multitude of Little Things at Home Which Enable Our Boys to Do Great Things in France. Under the banner of the Red Cross American women are working in homes, churches, clubs, schools, shops, .theaters, factories, hospitals and In thousands of Red Cross work-rooms. The hum of sewing machines, the whlzi of muslin torn to accurate strips, the rat-tat-tat of volunteer typewrit ers, the purr of boiling kettles in can teens, the rumbling of automobiles of the Motor Corps, the soft click of knit ting needles In lonely cabins and farm houses, all blend Into a great anthem of service. . About 8,000,000 women working through Red Cross Chapters and branches are making with their hands relief supplies surgical dressings,, knitted articles, hospital and refugee garments or working as volunteers, subject to any call day or night, at 500 railroad stations throughout the coun try and at the ports of embarkation, or serving In volunteer Motor Corps. Truly here Is an army with banners banners of a red cross on a white field. For jthe period up to the first of July, 1918, American Red Cross Chapters, through their work-rooms, had produc ed 192,748,107 surgical dressings, 10, 134,501 knitted articles, 10,786,489 hos pital garments and other .hospital sup plies and refugee garments, making a total of 221,282,838 articles of an esti mated aggregate value of at least $44,- j OOO.OOO. varied sounds of all their eager labor. The things they made, which carJ rled a message of love from the women of this country, quite apart from theli great money value, went from theli work-rooms on great adventures. The have gone into front line trenches, td emergency hospitals In foreign villages and Into the most modern operating rooms."' They have wrapped lost and frightened children In warmth and) sheltered aged refugees from the cold, They have gone overseas into Strang and sad places, into Russia and Ser bia and Palestine and Italy and France. They have gone Into our own huge cantonments for our own young -oldlers.

It enters Into the home In the true spirit of charity aecrecy. But first and foremost our soldiers In field and hospital must be given the mot attentive care possible. Nothing we can do will equal their share In this move ment for world democracy, and the Red Cross presents an opportunity for us to play our part In this great drama by contributing- to the extent of our ability. The Red Cross appeals to organized workers because of lte one quality service. Behind Red Cross service is an en nobling charity that Is not defaoed by cost marks, a democracy that personifies Jefferson e great principle of equality and a religion that is beyond sectarianism.

Our Heroes Aro Calling From Over There Give What You Carf to Help Those From Home. Every cltlieu In ten tod In Uu boys f his hotno town now at tho front, and lu the brave woim-n whe equally arw serving their country uliroud, bus nn opHrtunlty to show his Hj.rwlntlnh of the.sacrlllcQ they nn- making. The opiiortunlty comes as u result o( tbo generosity and thought of Colonel Hum lUiyce Thompsoii of New York, w ho has conceived and put Into exoi-u-tlou what is kuown ilk tli Homo Ta per Service. Under the pbin, every- man and wo man In foreign service will rvvelve the town newspaper, and so bo kept In constant touch with tbo places and the people they know and love. Every brunch of the United Suites Government Is Interested In the plan. The Government realises the Impor tance of keeping those In (bo service happy and constantly In touch with their home ties and associations. Noth ing Is more depressing In a national emergency than the spirit of loneliness In those serving their country, anil of ficials know that nothing can dispel this feeling more effect unHy than read ing the home town newspaper. Publishers of mwspaicrs lu all pnrts of the country this newspaper Includ ed have grasped with pleasure the plan outlined by Colonel Thompson, and they have agreed to co-operate In every way. Under the ruling of the War Indus tries Board newspaper publishers are forbidden to send their newspnperj free, even to soldiers. The newspaper must be subscribed for In the regular I way, the only exception being soldiers who formerly were In the employ of the newspaper and who left that serv ice to enlist. Colonel Thompson there fore proposes that the public In each community contribute to a fund so that tl)e home newspaper (in our case this newspaper) may reach every man and woman now In the service of bis coun try. Anyone may contribute to the funv and any sum maybe contributed. It Is not necessary to contribute the entire amount of one subscription. It d not matter whether the rich man sends In one hundred dollars or the poor hoy or little girl sends In five cents. Each gift will be a message of love and help fulness to the home town folks "Over There." The money will be lumped Into one fund, out of which subscrip tions will be entered as fast as the money Is received. Contributors who send In the full price of a year's subscription may, If they wish, designate to whrj particular person they wish the newspaper sent, but If the name given Is already listed as receiving the paper, then the pub lisher reserves the right to apply the subscription to some less fortunate sol dier boy or noble woman who Is Just as lonely for news of home and home folks. r The name of every contributor to this home paer service will be pub lished in this newspaper, atid the name of everyone entered, for a subscription will be published as well as the num. ber of those remaining whose subscrip tions have not been covered. If the amount of money received shall be more than Is necessary to send the paper to every person from the town now in the service, then the bal ance will be turned over to J the Rod Cross. The plan Is endorsed by the pub lisher of this newspaper without any thought of profit, either directly or In directly, but with a sincere desire to help keep the home fires burning and to send to our heroes and heroines news of our town, to keep their hearts warm for us and to let them know they are constantly in our minds. The publisher, of course, cannot make a profit on circulation, and addi tional circulation such as this will be circulation from non-purchasers sent far across the sea can have no added value to the advertiser. These facts are stated so that every contributor may feel that every cent contributed goes to ti$ good cause. The mothers of our boys are facing nn ordeal with a bravery that com' mands respect asjd admiration. Here and tnere wnere tiny stars are turned from blue to gold, where anguish grips the heart, the nation stands In silence and honors the women who have given of their blood, the very bone of their bone, to their country. To them, homo has lost Its meaning the soul of it bag fled there is no home, It is Just a place, and no place Is quite so lonely, unless It be within the hearts of those brave sons In far off France who long for Just a word of homo. There can not be a man, there cannot be a vo man, no, not even a child, who will fail to contribute Just a little to make the hearts of these patriots lighter.! Not one. Not In our town.
