Elm St Day Pkaaa Ml Nvikt MIS "One of theae exhibit halla houaed the' Jted Cross exhibit ahown for the Arat tlm outside the national mwaeum of the Red Croaa In Washington. Here original palntlnga of war scenes and poatera covered the walla. Hat tered and camouflaged canteen wagona, a Fled Croaa am bu lance with three citations (or Ita heroic work under fire, a cocoa cannon that had aeen hard aefvic near the-front.-atood wtthln W feet of the Hllenlc county, Michigan, public health nurse'a van, built of tongue and groove lumber and mount ed on a Kord truck, furnished within with bed and other nursing education equipment and drawn by a nobla Ford. Thla van too, had aeen hard but peace time service, having traveled ainoe April over 1,(00 mllea of Silenlc county roada, "In one alcove of the exhibit build ing were models of awards, medala, banners, Insignia of the French, Bel glan, Italian, Knglish,' and American war organisations and Red Cross. Hard by were the Wonderful collections of garments Illustrating work of chap ter volunteer aervloe in behalf of thousands of child sufferers in central and eastern Europe. "One of the chief features of the exhibit were the, miniature modela of Had Cross activities the first emerg ency canteen at Vaux for the refugees returning to the devastated areas, the surgical dressings' workroom . under pressure of war demands, the. famous tent city of J'arls with food and beds for 1.600 men on leave. These tiny models vied for Interest with tha real play toys made by the Juniors of America for the children of Europe. "In another of tho apaclotis halls the various divisions maintained headquar ters. Ho it said to the glory of the southern division, which as our friend Mr. Hlaik said was 'bounded on the north by the Potomao river, on the south by the Otilf of Mexico, on the east by tne Atlantic ocean, and on the west by the father of Waters,' and Includes 00 chupters be it said to Its glory that thla great division boasted 200 delegates, the largeat representa tion of any division except tha lake dlvlnlon of which Ohio la a member. "In the very large home aervlca sec tions workers were eager for a solu tion of specific, problems, five on "the floor at once bombarding the leader, tPi like thoae which Miss I'eele has from day to day and which can be answer ed ultimately only by Washington. It waa lbs orton.volced opinion that tha work of the home service will continue till 1027 and that 60 years from now may not entirely see the olean-up. "The real Inspiration of the conven tion was undoubtedly through the gen eral sessions when men and women conaplcunua In military and Ked Cross service struck the spark which re kindled the fires of our own en thusiasm." Mrs. Hammel apeaka vividly of such persons aa Dr., Livingston Kar rand, retiring chairman of the central committee, "that strong personality in a frail physique"; of President Thomp son, of Ohio mate university; of Judge liurtnn Payne, former secretary of the Interior; of "the magnificent voice of Dr. Thomas E. Oreene"; of Major Gen eral John A, Lejeune, commander of the devil dogs: of John (. Emery, of I!l6 American legion: Admiral JJoontx. of the navy; of Father Duffy, bflHe U6th: and of many others. "The Hed Cross in disaster waa rep resented by one who had gone but re cently through the supreme test, T. V. Keating, auperlntendent of Pueblo schools, chairman of the Pueblo chap ter, Colorado, who gave a'thrllllng ao count of the Pueblo flood which he found on his hands the day after he had accepted the chapter chairmanship on the promise that there would be nothing for him to do but to preside at an occasional meeting. The mes siige of his great relief servloa la in his simple words: 'The Ked Cross functioned from the first.' ... "Mrs, August .Belmont, member of the central committee on volunteer service, in her beautifully modulated voice and the lovely personality whlnh onulrl well have been chosen to Imper sonate the spirit of tho Ited Groan, re echoed these words of tho western schnoltnaater and gave them an added significance In her pica for whole- hearted volunteer service. ... 'The pageant of the lied Crosa. splendid In spectacular effect, artistic in costuming and coloring, soul stir ring In Ita aplrltual quality, waa writ ten rrnm a series of hlslorloal epi sodes dating from the Inception of the Itfd tress wnen Illf light of t'hrlstlan; Ity had Just begun to shed Its luster over the new centuries. These episodes tnrniea a fitting background against which emblajoned the vision of the newer and the still greater useful ness. "From the visual conception of the "Plrlt of the Oood Hamarltan, the Knight, of the Round Tnblo, the spirit of '70, and the organised nursing ser vice by Florence Nightingale, the Uni ted States sanitary commission of the Civil war, tho Hlstcrs of Charity, the League of Red CVons the pageant passes amid tho atralns of the music of classical masters aung by 1,000 voices accompanied by an orchestra, of 97 pieces passes on to the world war. "The horrors of war. the gloom of tho trenches, the flash and thunder of shell and shrapnel, were most realla llc. Ambulances, stretcher hearers, first aid, base hospitals ministered where need was greatest. To the man lying wounded in No Man'a Land the Insignia of the Red Crosa meant safe harbor. "No more gripping arena can be Imagine. -than -t hat, fh-sotd Wref I for daa.d ami alone on Uie battlefield, who, reviving later, sought the salva tion of the Hed Cross. The part of this soldier waa performed hy H. It. Lee. of Columbus, who had experienced .the despair of death if not ita actuality. 'Then came tha wounded and dis abled that fullow In the wake of the combat. When these men, on crutches, blind, in heel chairs, bed-ridden, more crumukd wrecks of manhood, ap peared, aupported by mothers, wives ami sisters, the vast assemblage of spectator arose as one man and with howed heads stood In silence and tn tears while the human wreckage of war passed by, the strains of the re cessional, "Lest We Forget,' , pleading that thu Greatest Molhor fall not tu remember, but 'be with us yet.' "All the peace-time activlttea were represented. Whether In peace or in war the parta wcra taken by tha Red Crosa people who had been enrolled and who had worked In the branch of service which they were portraying in the pageant. "Throughout the convention the spirit of the. Red Cross waa all per vading. There waa apparent every where the ,consecratlon to . service which la the basis of lied Cross prin ciples and practice. The very large proportion of men present, earnest of purpose and tireless in attendance, gave assurance to those who might mlsjudgo the Red Cross aa exclusively a woman'a organisation, that the Red Cross la the inatrument for aervice of all the people, the unloa of all who Armistice Day An Arbor Day Armlatlce day will be a na tional holiday, and ao ahould there be an Arbor day which will better suit planting conditions In tho south than the present day selected for th,it purpose.
