The Red Cross will have space on every steamer chartered by the United States Shipping Board, and its sup-, plies also will be carried on army transports. Shipments will be distrib uted among as many steamers as pos sible so as to afford the minimum chance of losses at sea. Getting supplies across seas does not, however, end the problem of transportation. The French railroads are overtaxed and have all they can do in taking care of the military needs of iiie army. In consequence, the Amejdcan Red Cross has gone about the .development of its owm motor transport service. At present, this service embraces some four hundred motor vehicles, v/ith capacity to han dle about .350 tons of supplies daily. The establishment of this important service has necessitated appropriations to date appi'Qximating-?!,<500,000. Fairmount School Honor Roll The first month of Fairmount school ended November 30.
