KEEPING HOME FIRES BURNING
UNTIL THE SOLDIER RETURNS
The Red Cross has for years been
associated with hospitals, doctois, sol­
diers, sailors, battles, disasters; but it
is only within the last few months
that those who do not come under
any of these classes have come to real­
ize the Importance of the assistance
rendered by the Red Cross.
Soldiers and sailors must be encour­
aged to "carry on." Their morale
must be upheld. The sailor or soldier
■who Is worrying about the welfare of
his family is not able to put his mind
on the business before him. For this
reason the Home Service Section of
the American Red Cross has been or­
ganized, and to the folks at home it
means neighborliness, counsel and aid
—the nation's assurance to the enlist­
ed man that his family shall suffer for
no essential thing that is within Its
power to give.
In practically every large city of the
United States there is already a class
for training the workers of the Home
Service section, so that they may be
able to efficiently deal with the very
real problems that are before them.
It is not the policy of the section to
force upon families the aid of the Red
Cross nor to burden them with inter­
ference. No family shonid be ap­
proached unless some member of the
family or some person capable of
«peaking for them has asked for the
service. Because it is the desire of
the Committee on Civilian Relief, un­
der whose direction this work comes
to keep the service of the bureau
strictly confidential, the wearing of
any uniform by the Home Service
workers has been dlscournged. They
cal! simply as friends and try to call
Immediately when requested.
In no instance is a visitor permit­
ted to pry into the secrets of the fam­
ily. Help Is always ready, and the call
usually comes from lhe man in the
service himself. Through the work­
ers In the camp or at the front he
Icahns that his family may be assisted,
and If he does not bear regularly or
encouragingly he Is quite apt to talk
over with the Red Cross man or wo­
man the affairs of his home when he
learns of the friendly interest, and
thus send local workers to his family.
The school teachers also are often the
informants, for they know through the
children of the needs nt home and are
Clad to see the family's problems
solved.
I
Living Is more difficult for every one
In war times, and the mothers are lone­
ly and discouraged, and this brings
hardship on the heads of the little
children. Sometimes the wife and
mother is worrying over financial prob­
lems, and here the Home Service bu­
reau Is always helpful, for It tactfully
assists her in properly managing her
affairs, in planning her income and,
of course, seeing that she is receiving
sufficient allotment, and this regularly,
and then if it becomes necessary the
Red Cross is slwa.vs ready to supple­
ment the Income. Where medical care
or operations for the welfare of the
children are necessary the Home Serv-
Ice is ready to assist, to secure proper
care for the children needing It and to
ease the mind of the mother.
Milk for Sick Babies.
By JEANNE JUDSON,
Frightened and pitiful, they walk apart,
Through the familiar village street, grown strange,
Hand clasped in hand, they hear weird echoes start
From ruined homes. Fear dumbs each small, child heart.
No tears rain down like dew to ease their woe;
Horror has dried the wells from which they sprang,
Like wee crusaders af the long ago,
Their phantom banners in the breezes blow.
If one should call out “Follow!” they would run,
Grime of the highway on their tiny feet,
Heedless alike of dust and blazing sun,
Forget, as dreams, the horrors that were done.
None calls; weary they rest within the shade,
The ruined church, where once they learned to pray,
Long years before the war had come, and laid
Their homes in ruins, made their hearts afraid.
Before the Holy Mother low they bow,
Perhaps she hears and soon will bring them aid,
It must be she whose voice is calling now,
For see the cross is shining on her brow!
The light around her head, a nimbus gleams,
A Red Cross worker, not from Heaven, they know,
Yet Mary heard and sent her here it seems,
To lead them home to shelter and to dreams.
