"THE WORK OF THE RED CROSS MUST GO ON!" The American Red Cross is an emergency organization by nature -it deals with problems as they arise. No better illustration of this fact can "be given than to recall its work since American entered the war. If a hospital was needed in an emergency at any particular point--quickly the Red Cross supplied it. If a train load of troops crossed the country and for one reason or another the provisions failed, the Red Cross has had the facilities and the organization to cope with the situation and to send these boys on their waj happy and with full stomachs.

What has been the record of the Bed Cross--it has never failed to answer a call of distress, no matter -what or when or how that call came. For Infants and Children.

A message sent by the war council of the Red Cross to all chapters shows -that long ago definite plans were -made to meet the emergencies that are bound to arise when peace is finally here. It said in part: February 10 last year, nearly six weeks before the United States declared war. National Red Cross headquarters advised its chapters to pre pare for war.

"That which has followed in the record of the Red Cross in helping to this war and to relieve suffering growing out of it, constitutes something of which every American citizen has a right to be proud. "The moment is now come to pre pare for peace. Actual peace may come at any moment: it may be deferred for some time. Until peace is really here, there can be no relaxation in any Red Cross effort incident to active hostilities "But even with peace, let no one suppose that the work of the Red Cross is finished.
