RED CROSS—-

_ ‘(Oontinuedmm gage l)

“Contrary to pollulalj belief. a man or a woman, wearing the red cross on his or her sleeve is safe from intentional harm on aw battlefield in Europe. I do not lnmw if anything else I can say about tlle Red Cross would be more significant than that.

"Ninety per cent of the blood plasma used by the Allied armies is stored and controlled b)’ m9 Red Cro.

"But to a badly wounded man. just taken off the field. plasma is of no use. He must have fresh blood transfusions. For this pur- pose of supplying fresh blood. the Red Cross has men oi reinforce- ment units back in sectors of com- parative safety. Here, those men are well nourished. Their blood has been tested and classified be- forehand. And they are avail- able at an instant/s notice to‘ give o s

badly wounded .

"I think. therefore. gentlemen, it is hardly necessary for me to tell you to go out tomorrow and do all you can to solicit subscriptions for this Red Cross drive. And as you go from door to door .it may be‘ that some oi you will think oi that coloured Red Cross lad who_ gave his life that others might live. I am sure the entertainment by you of that thought will fortify and sustain your resolution to make is Red Cross drive the most successful in the history of the Province."

At the clou of the meeting it was learned that Davis and Fraser had generously contributed the sum of $500 to the campaign.
