' ... - mat it the enrichment of life. In all that this term represents, which the average farmer hopes electricity will ultimately bring him is the reflective opinion of II. W. Riley, professor of rural engineering of the New York State College of Agriculture. Professor Riley, who has lived with farmers and studied their problems for years, appreciates that the immediate ambition of the farmer, in respect to electricity, is to obtain a 1 larger cash return from his farming; i but he maintains that the farmer j looks beyond this, and haR in his mind, as the iinal goal, a greater share of tho stimulating social and mental possibilities of life, which he hopes will ; eomo with an increased cash return. Showing that so far as getting through season after season of farm work ana actually producing marketable crops Is concerned, the farmer could doubtless "get along" if he never secured electric power. Prof. [ Riley asks why. then, is there such j an insistent tiemauu for rnral electric I lines and what Is the real service that electricity from auch lines la to render? "The answer to these questions," he asserts, "can be found readily enough when It is realized that the farmer's central objective in life is the maintenance of an Independent1 and comfortable home, where he and i his wife may live, where his children may grow up strong in body and reKnnrrpfnl In mind ?nd ' live in peace to the end of bia days. "Money mast come in reasonable amounts sometime*, to be sure, or,1 like any other man, he will not count hla work successful, but money is of value to him mainly as It enables him to improve his farm sad borne and to enjoy some of the pleasures and amenities of modem life. The ready sale of automobiles and small electric light plants to farmers, the extension of country telephone lines, the demand far rural free delivery of mail are instaaeas that prove this point. Now interest is starting to conceatrate an the extension of electric power lines Into the country for tbe rery evident reason that the whole farming population have seen what electricity has done In the cities and they want the same benefits for themselves. "The farmers want electricity mainly because they know that it will make their lives oeiUx worth Irving. They do not want It to cost too much because cash money is scarce with them, but they want it mainly for what It will do for tbsra and not primarily beranne of a possible low cost for the service." PHT V^H {ED CROSbW TO AID VETERANS Ipends Nearly Four Millions in Year to Lessen Burdens of Disabled Soldiers. iERVES 63.700 IN HOSPITALS very Case is Given Individual Service?Assists Families of These Men Everywhere. Washington.?The need of ladjrldial assistance by ex service men and heir families from the Red Cros3 is J is pressing today as it was irnmeliately after the end of the World ' ivar. For six years this work lias j >een foremost of all Red Cross ser- , riccu, an-1 in emphasizing the steady ( public support of this work the Keri i Cross National Headquarters urges die largest enrollment this year during the membership campaign opening on Armistice Day, November 1L Nearly four million dollars of Ked Cross funds spent for disabled veterans and their dependents during the ' year ended June 30 la.it presents somo Idea of the magnitude of this work. ' The current year, it is estimated, will sail for still further disbursements of fands for the reason that the Red Cross, through more than 3,300 Chapters in as many communities in the ' United States, has been called upon J to help the ex-service men in making 1 out their applications for the adjusted 1 compensation granted in the so-called bonus law. 38,767 Soldier Cases a Month The Red Cross work for the disabled soldier is designated "borne service." for it gives individual attention | to the man and his family approximating the interest and loving care of the home. Such service in the hospitals, camps, soldiers' homes and sanatoria, averaged 33,931 cases a month during the year. Assistance to ex-service men and their depen- | dents averaged 38.767 cases a month. In addition, the Red Cross in the last twelve months provided 33,000 recre- I ation and entertainment events In the hospitals and camps. Thus the Red Cross, symbolized as the "Greatest Mother," still watches ' over these many thousands of men, comforts them, helps to lighten the tedium of their physical reconstruction, and ia their homos lifts some of the burdens from their "own people." Work in Communities Increases The home service of the Red Cross was uie iuosl pressing duty c? ?.? # Chapters, an increase of 182 communities where problems affected by the war veteran's condition required aoiuiion through immediate end intelll- I gent assistance. The Chapters alone expended some 32.00U.000 in this ' work. The transient disabled soldier, usually suffering from disability or tuberculosis. is almost everywhere a grave problem. From national funds the ! past year $173,076.36 was expended In I helping the Chapters to care for these wandering men. According to government report j there are 4.300 veterans in civilian in-1 stltntions, and in the national homes for nfllrl lore lha annrmllaaHa*- ? creasing. The large groups of pa- I tlents whose claims have been dlsal- { lowed, of veterans of foreign wars, and the great nnmber of men permanently resident in these institutions I ^ call for Bed Cross work which can- ' not he avoided nor denied. Definite Service to 73,700 Of a total of 84,500 ex-servlco men , In hospitals and other institutions 73,-! 700 were rendered a definite and spe-1 clalized service by the Red Cross. ' In a single month 4.1S5 new cases were presented and a total of 20,125 | ~ac acted epoi*?figures which serve to illustrate the magnitude of the in- 1 formation and claims service engag-] tag the attention of Red Cross work- i ers. New veteran legislation amending tho War Rtsk act which extends many additional rights to disabled exservice men will reopen thousands of cases and require still greater Rod Cross service. When CoogroH. ?-ranted a charter to the A merle r Red Cross it charged the organixatic n with the dnty to act as "the medium of communication between the American people and their Array and Navy." This responsibility to the ealisted men <tnd their families is met every year without restriction. J Serves Men on Active Service The extent of this Red Cross activity during the last year embraced a total of 195,248 cases. There were 56.995 separate soldiers' and sailors' > claims; 20.316 investigations of home conditions; 11.421 cases related to discharges. furloughs, etc. Assistance was given In 3D.6M Instances for per- J sonal. business or family problems; 744.220 visits were made to the sick or disabled, and nearly 40.0U0 letters and telegrams dispatched to the ] homes of enlisted men. From Jur.e to September at the nn- I mprous w:l:ia.y training camps tiu Red Cross provided information and home service to the trainees, also in structton In Ptrst Aid and Life-Saving.
