Cross in impor tant branches of offort affecting tho welfare of tho men In uniform. On tho contrary, there, has boon grcat.or volume of work in certain lines dur ing tho last few months than there wns boforo demobilization began.

Thoro still keeps up also tho origi nal dlHtinctlvo work in the camps and hospitals for tho vigorous and tho wounded and tho convalescent. All of it Is work that must continue until tho lust man has been mus tered out and tho last of tho hos pltnls is closed. Everybody who responds to tho third Rod Cross Roll Call, November 2-11, theroforo, will have a part In carrying to completion tho tasks which woro assumed when tho Unlt od Spates onguged in tho war.
