THE TRAIN THAT SAVED A NATION - -How the Red Cross Helped Roumania. ‘ Have you heard of what happened in Roumania when that stricken nation stood In rags and starving before the shocked eyes of the world? We had thought ourselves grown used to trag- edies until this greater horror struck a blow that 'roused still untouched sympathies, And yet we felt so helpless, you and I, so terribly weak in our ability to of- fer aid: But were we? After all, were we not the very ones who car- ried new life and hope to the heart of Roumania? You shall be’ your own judge. - Fighting with the desperation of de- spair, the shattered Roumgnian army still struggled to beat off the Kaiser's bloody Huns, who were merecilessly trampling the life out of the little kingdom. And the Kaiser smiled bru- tally as he saw his wolves at work and knew that from behind the lines, attacking the fighting men of Rouraa- nia from the rear, entering the homes where mothers clung to the frail, dis- torted forms of their babies—was star- vation. 2 No country around 'Roumania could help her—and America was tgo far away. Thousands would die before supplies held in our own country could be sent her. Hope was gone. Death by hanger and by the dripping sword of the Kai- ser was clostng in. - A brave little na- ion was peing torn to pieces. Then came the miracle. ng the streets of J Hiania, One morn: the war caph I with soinds of 1 sw of rejoicing. A city where the day be- fore there was heard-mothing but the wallg of the starving and the lamenta- plons of those mourning their dead now was awakened by shouts of joy, You, my friend; you who have help. ed In the lieroic work of the American Red Cross, had gone to the rescue of Roumanin. A train of 31 big freight cars packed to their utmost capaclty with food, clothing and medicine, tons upon tons of it, had arrived in Jassy after making a record breaking trip from the great store houses of the American Red Cross in Russla. ' Other trains followed it; thousands were fed and clothéd and nursed:back to heulth. For weeks and even to this day the brave people of Roumania are‘being: cared for-in countless pumbers by our own Red Cross. So was Roumania helped, and when history records how this last fragment-| of a sturdy nation was kept out of the hands of the terrible Huns it will giva | the victory to your ‘American ‘Red Oross, (o) The Way- of-Life. Life no doubt is paved-with enjoy-{ ments, but we must all expect times-{| of anxiety, of suffering andof sorrow; ‘apd when these come it is an inesti- mable comfort to have some: deep in-} terest which will, at any rate to some extent, enable, us to escape from our- gelves.—Sir John Lubbock. Credit Belongs-to Labor, If we rightly estimate things, what in them is purely owing to nature and-| what to-labor, we shall find that nine- ty-nine parts of a hundred are wholly" to be put on’‘the account of the labor. —Locke .
