‘“If you want to try an interesting

and see what happens.’
“He tried the expei iment. F e went
up to a ’roop train and he said: ‘l ow
many of you boys have been ir Amer-
ica?’ and he said it seemed to him as
if half of them sprang up: ‘Me from

all over.’ There was part of the heart
df America in the Italian army. Peo-
ple that: had been knitted to us by as-
sociation, who knew us, ha< lived

‘•Friendship is the only ceme it tha*
will ever hold the world together. And
this intimate contact of the Rei Cross
with the peoples who are suffer ng the
terrors and deprivations of this war is
going to be one of the greatest instru-
mentalities of friendship that the
world ever knew, and the cei ter .of
the heart of it all, if we sustain it
properly, w.il be this land that we so
dearly love.
“My friends, a great day of duty has
come -and duty finds a man's soul as
no kind of work can ever find it.
“May I say this? The duty that
faces us all now is to serve one an-

a fortune out of this war. There are
many amongst us who have forgotten
that, if they ever saw it. Some of

New York.—Opening with a speech
Satirday the Red Cross drive for a
second $10fl,000,000 war fund. Presi-
dent Wilson announced the purpose of
the United States to set no limits on
its effort to win the war.
“I hav? heard gentlemen recently
say," said be, “taat we must get 5,000,-
000 men ready. Why limit it to 5,000,-
000? I have asked of congress to
name no limit, because congress in-
tends, 1 am sure, as we all intend, that
?very ship that can carry men and
supplies shall go laden upon every
voyage with every man and every sup-
ply she can carry.”
The United States, the president
said, wil not be diverted from its
purposE by insincere approaches on
the subject c>* peace.
“I can say with a clear conscience,”
he said, “that I have tested those in-
tentiona and have found them insin-
cere. 1 bow recognize them for what
they are, an opportunity to have a
free-hand play in the east, to carry
out purposes of conquest and exploita-
tion Every proposal w.th regard to
accommodation in the west involves a
reservation in regard to the east. I
intend to stand by Russia as well as
by France.” The statement brought
the house to its feet cheering.
German rulers, the president de-
clarer, ar-.- mistaken if they think the
United States will sacrifice anybody
for its own sake.
“They w;s:i peace, let them come
fw.va.-d snd lay their jerms on the
table. We have laid ours and they
know wca: they are,” he said.
The wa- the president declared, is
a war to save the world. The con-
flict. le said, will knit the world to-
gether.
Dwelling on the duty of Americans
’ to give to the Red Cross, the presi-
dent teciared no man could afford to
make money out of the war.
The president's speech in full:
“Mr. Chairman and Fellow Country-
rum: I should be very sorry to think
that Mr Davteon in any degree cur-
tailed its exceedingly interesting
speech for fear that he was postpon-
ing mine, because I am sure you «;s-
tened w:th the same intent and inti-
mate in erest with which I listened
to the extraordinarily vivid account
he gave of the things which he had
realize] because he had come in con-
tact with them on the other side of
the waters.
”We compass them with our imagi-
nation; he compassed them in his per-
sona experieace and I am not here
tonight to review for you the work of
the Red Cross; I am not competent
to do so because I have had no time
or tte opportunity to follow it in de-
tails. I have come here simply to say
• a few words to you as to what it all
seems to me to mean—and it means
a great deal.
“There ure two duties with which
we are face r.o face. The first duty
is to win the war. And the second
duty that goes hand in hand with it
is to win it. greatly and worthily,
shqwinr the real quality of our pow-
er not only, but the real quality of
our purpose snd of ourselves.
“Or course the first duty, the duty
that we mast keep in the foreground
of our thought until it Is accomplished,
is to win the war. I have heard gen-,
tleoaen recent ly say that we must get
5,000,000 men ready. Why limit it to
5,000,000?
“I have asked the congress of the
Unittd States to name no limit, be-
cause the congress intends, I am sure,
as we ail intend, that every ship that
can carry men or supplies shall go
laden upon every voyftge with every
man and every supply she can carry.
Must Win the War.
“And we arc not to be diverted from
the grim purpose of winning the war
by any insincere approaches upon the
subject of peace. I can say with a
clear conscience that I have testci
those intimations and have foun 1
them inrincerc. I now recc ?nize them
for what they are, an opportunity to
have a free hand, particularly m the
east, to carry out the purposes of
conquest and exploitation.
•‘Ever- proposal with regard to ac-
commodation in the west involves a
’■•serration with regard to the east,
now, so far as I am concerned, I in-
tend to stand by Russia as well as
FrEnce.”
A voice from the audience inter-
rupted with “God bless you.”
"The helpless and the friendless are
the very ones that need friends and
thinks we are going to sacrifice any
body for our own sake I tell them now
they are mistaken.
“For the glory of this war, my fel-
low citizens, in so far as w< are con-
cerned, is that it is perhaps for the
first time in history an unselfish war.
I could not be proud to fight for a
selfish purpose, but I can bp proud
to fight for mankind. If they wish
let them come forward through ac-
credited representatives and lay their
terms on the table. We Lave laid
ours and they know what they are.
“But behind all this gnm purjiose,
my fronds, lies the oppor unity to
demonstrate not only force w,hich will
be demonstrated to the utnost, but
the opportunity to demonstrate char-
acter, and it is that opportunity that
we have most conspicuously in the
work of the Red Cross.
“Not that our men in arms do not
repre^ zt our character, for they do,
and it i» a character which those who
see and realize appreciate and admire:
but their duty is the duty >f force.
The duty of the Red Cross is the duty
of mercy and succor and friendship.
“Have you forrne.d a picture in your
imagination of w hat this war is doing
for us and for the world? In my own
mind 1 am convinced that not a hun-
dred years of peace could have knitted
this nation together as this single
year of war has knitted it together;
and better even than that, if possible,
it is knitting the world together.
“Look at the picture. In the center
of the scene four nations engaged
against: the world and at every point
of vantage, showing that t ley are
seeking selfish aggrandizement; and
against them twenty-three 'govern-
ments representing the greater part of
the population of the world, drawn
into a new sense of community of in-
terest, a new sense of community of
life.
In millinery, as in other things, the i trimming. Large satin acorns express
season's stylus have gravitated toward ‘ a happy afterthought of the designer,
a few types that have established «-»-* «■ •
themselves and will last as long as the
summer lasts—and perhaps longer.
One inay be sure of them anywhere.
Among them are wide-brimmed and
moderately \vi<le-brimmed sailor
shapes, small hats that have a sugges-
tion of the poke bonnet In their lines
and the cloche or drooping-brimmed
bell shape, with its brim a little wider
than in rhe beginning of spring. These
jiersist among others that are almost
as popular; as small turbans and me-
dium-sized turbanlike shapes with spir-
ited brim Hues and coronets. The last
is a type that women of middle age
like best.
Plenty of variety appears in these
favored shapes in popular hats. One
does not look for eccer-tricities In the
shapes themselves; but in the trim-
mings a l sorts of pretty whims find
expression, especially among street
hats. An example of this appears In
the smart hat with -urled quill trim-
ming that is shown In the accompany-
ing picture. This model has been made
In black and in several colors—each
hat all in one color—with brim and
side crown of caterpillar braid, facing

New Shaded Red.
The new shade of red known ns
Wilson red or Swiss red is really very
taking, especially early in the spring.
It ought to look well ever in mid-
summer at the seashore or in tht* coun-
try, but of course the favor i j which a
color is held ar this date is n» criterion
of the midsummer favor it n ay enjoy.
At all events, just now all sorts of
odds and ends are feature I in this
clear new shade of red. Esp ecially ef-
fective are the many red beads that
shop keepers have dug up f/om some
forgotten corner and that manufactur-
ers have rushed to the shons. They
are strikingly pretty with whi e blouses
and especially ’’or the young girl.

“And think what we have here: we
call it the American Red Cross, but
it is merely a branch of a great in-
ternational organization which is not
recognized by the statutes of each cf
the civilized governments of the world,
but it is recognized by international
agreement and treaty as the recog-
nized and accepted instrumentality of
mercy and succor. And one of the
deepest strains that rests upon the
reputation of the German army is that
they have not respected the Red Cross.
“That goes to the root of the mat-
ter They have not respected the in-
strumentality that they themselves
participated in setting up as the thing
which no man was to touch, because
it was the expression of common hu-
manity. We are members by being
members of the American Red Cross,
of a great fraternity and comradeship
which extends all over the world and
this cross which these ladies bore to-
day is an embiem of Christianity it-
self.
“It fills my imagination, Indies and
gentleman, to think of the women all
over this country who are busy tonight
and are busy every uight and every
day doing the work of the Red Cross,
busy with a great eagerness to find
out the most serviceable thing to do,
busy with a forgetfulness of all the
old frivolities of their social relation-
ship, ready to curtail the duties of
the household in order that they may
contribute to this common work that
all their hearts are engaged in and
in doing which their hearts become ac-
quainted with each other.
How People Are Drawn.
“When you think of this you realize
how the people of the United States
are being drawn together into a great
intimate family, whose heart is being
used for the service of the soldiers
not only, but for the service of civil-
ians, where they suffer and are lost
in a maze of distresses and distrac-
tions.
“And you have then this noble pic-
ture of justice atd mercy as the two
servants of liberty. “

thoughts of comradeship; only where i
they are free do they think the •
thoughts of sympathy; only where
they are free do they realize their '
depender.ee upon one another and |

est and common necessity
“1 heard a stcry told the other da>
that was ridiculous, but it is worth
repeating because it contains
germ of truth. An Indiai. was

‘Not mu'h good;

“ ‘Well, do you know what you are

“‘Yes, me know; fight to make

“He had evidently misunderstood
some innocent sentence of my own.
But after ali, although there is no
party purpose in it. he got it right as
far as the ward ‘party’ to make the
whole world democratic in the sense
of community of interest and of pur-
pose and if you ladies and gentlemen
could read some of the touching dis-
patches which ceme through official

nels there come voices of humanity
