Homo Service. I)cartiiiciit,
War is very serious and also a
very expensive uudcrtakinK, especial
ly the one in which we arc now en
gaged. It is, therefore, necessary
that all of us should do our very ut
niul to save time, money and effort
in order that it may lie successfully
(allied on. The work of this depart
ment of the lied Cross is a very im
portant one, and ihosc whose needs
are met by it should observe very
carefully the rules jr,vornin Ihe
same, otherwise much money und
lime and cfort will be wasted, and
Ihe end sought defeated.
All families of soldiers are urgent
I'.' advised not to locate near the can
tonments where their husbands or
fill hers are now in the service of their
country. The attention of this de- f
partuicnt has just been culled to Ibis
by Ihe division manager of the J!ed
Cross, Sentllc, Washington, lie says:
"The migration ot families of soldiers
in order to lie near the cantonments
in which the men are galhcred is
against the deljnile advice and warn-
ings of the wai' and navy depurliiicnt. !
The home service work of the lied!
Cross should (iiscourugo this, as it
has been the cause of much iinnoy
ance, discomfort and expense to hotU
thc lied Cross , the soldiers and their
families.
iNiitriotisui on t he part of both sol-
dicrs and their families demand thut
such a thing1 shall he discontinue!.
To act otherwise is to hamper the
military authorities by crowding; mil
itary camp cities and becomes a
-our. e of worry to the men nnd n fi
nancial rospoiiMbility which they can
not meet.
ltefore making any change in your
location seek the advice of thc home
('epnrlmenl of the lied Cross, Sparta
liuilding, Med l ord, Oregon, and in this
way the work of this department may
soon he made a success and at very
little expense.
