AN APPEAL FROM THK RED CROSS
The object of this foreword to the
Appeal of tlie Cranbroolt Chapter of
the I, 0. 1). E. for funds to carry on
tlieir work of making supplies Tor our
wounded, is firstly to urge for a generous response to their house to house
canvas on March 16th, and to emphasize the necessity that tliis work should
not be allowed to decrease at this time
through lack of funds. In view of the
coming great drive on the Western
Front in the spring and tlie son sequent
Increase of casualties In the Canadian
Forres; and secondly to give a statement showing how the funds locally
subscribed have been expended. During tlie last twelve months the Cranbrook chapter have made and shipped
to the headquarters of the Canadian
i Hed Cross Society in Toronto the following articles:- 4rt7 Suits of Pyjamas; 2S6 Pair of Socks; 188 Hot Water
Bottle Covers; 135 Helpless Shirts;
13*1 Shirts; 1158 Miscellaneous articles
■ which include bandages, pads, towels,
i fomentation wringers, surgeons gowns
I fie, ftc.   The materials for the nbove
articles have all boen purchased from
■ the Flannelette Fund raised by volun-
: t: ry BiibBcrlptlons anti contributions.
the monthly tines of -5 cents paid by
members of the I- <* D, E. is entirely
absorbed by expenses incidental to the
running of the Order, and In paying j
rent, postage etc
Everyone realized the tremendous
urgency of the present requirements,
the serious shortage of supplies announced by the Canadian Red Cross
Society, Owing to the decrease in the
activities of our Canadian Workers the
dally Increasing need for supplies ofj
ail kinds would soon ba overcome, for!
surely it is fully time tliat each nnd i
every one of those  who are left  al
homo should ask themselves honestly
it  thej nro doing their full share, in
working for au early ami successful
foiiMiimition  of the war.
in conclusion ft mlghl be woll to
quote a resolution that was recently
passed by National Executive of the
(Vder. "Whereas 'tl"' almost concentration nt effort' must be limited by
time,   strength   and  menno    therefore.
be it revolved thnt ibis National Incentive of thc Imperial Order of the
Daughters of tho Empire do earnestly
urge all patriotic women to concentrate all tholr energy, strength and

circumstances of war, leaving all other
issues, however important in abeyance
until the war Is won."

that any member not supporting legislation brought in for the benefit, of

moving slowly forward for the betterment of civilization, but every institution must wnrk toward keeping tlie

The onorgy with which women are
seizing the opportunity to raise the
st;iiithirds of business und political
Iii" iu tho west is very gratifying to
all thoso who have the real welfare of
the country at heart, and it is to In-
hoped that tliey will have the strength
to avoid tho many pitfalls which will
he placed in tlieir path. Efforts aro
already bolng made to switch thein off
into the tortuous paths of politics,
where they would be quickly swallowed up in existing party organizations;, and their efforts effectively
muzzled. Wo plead with those who
may unwittingly have made a step In
tho wrong direction, to get in line
with their sisters who have so strongly
and  wisely forsworn all politics.

CHANBROOK. It C
One or tho most valuable of recent
literary contributions to the great
cause Is n booklet by Professor Stephen Loacock, entitled "National Organization for War." In this booklet
Dr. Loacock makes an urgent call for
national thrift and national saving.
He attacks In vigorous style the evils
of extravagance at this crisis fu Canada's history, nnd by trenchant phrase
and apt illustration disposes or various common errors in regard to individual spending of money during war
time.
This pamphlet was originally pub*
Itshod by Ur. Loacock himself, but
tho National Service Doard were so
convinced of Its value In connection
wltli tbeir Thrift Campaign that they
have had it republished and huve un
dertaken Us dlstrlbuton. Copies muy
be obtained by writing to tlie Secretary
of tbe National Service Doard at Ottawa, or by applying to tlie National
Service Director in any Provnco.

Tliis cannot be done indivlduall, but
collectively and n order to do so n a
seemly manner, t Is necessary to form
an organization, embracing not only
tlio women but those men who, of
strong moral character, are disgusted
with the present condition and are
willing to assist in tbe cleansing of
politics.
In this way the women must set beforo them the Ideal of not doing as
well as the men, but of creating something higher that will so alter public
opinion that nothing crooked nor underhanded will be tolerated, and make
both parties, in catering for friendship and support, show themselves to
bo actuated by a sense of public re-,
sponslbillty.
Women, do not let this chance go by,
It will never return again; It Is at your I
feet to do as you will; a clean B. C. or
not! Isn't It worth the effort?
