Mrs. Roland Feagans has returned from the Rutherfordton hospital. We have a rapidly growing Red Cross Junior, with more than thirty members at present. Last Thursday, after Bible class, Rev. Mr. Kidd gave a fine talk and presented Red Cros buttons to twenty very proud little pioneers in this great movement. And they have a right to be proud. The buttons represent a vast amount of self-sacrifice on the part of most of them, and" real effort for all. Two little girls got theirs by doing extra work before and after school, for ar. egg a day, and one tiny tot refused candy and chewing gum if she might have the pennies "To join the Reel Cross." If our grown-ups were sc interested as these children there would be "something doing' in the community. And there must be if wc are going to redeem ourselves in this week's "drive" for the Red Cross war fund. "We have seen our mei depart into a mist of distance, and we who are left behind are asked tt give and still to give. "When we have we have given our men, is it not a little thing to give money? And yet so many hang back. Surely they art asleep. They cannot see our boys "Over There' "an endless row of shining steel that stands between 2 long line of never-failing white-cap ped women, a host of children and r mighty over-riding force which hat mercy. These boys must be cared for, these women must not be lost foi want of help at home, these childrer must be saved, and we must do it." There is no need to justify the work. The need is to continue it? and wc must do it. : Dr. Pratt wilLpreacti in Lynn chap el, Sunday, at 3:30 p. m. ' Rev. Mr. Kidd will preach in chapel at 8 p. m. V'S- .- v., I .
