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.

a rabbit and two . terrapins came
