The ministrations of the Red .Cross will lessen the number of silver stars, and will make the las: days of those who must go happier and more comfortable. You of the Bell System have re sponded wonderfully to the 'mem bership drive and have come to the aid of your brothers in service. T t is not gratitude or sacrIAce. We want you to share liberally aa With a brother, and tie this great noble work closely to the Bell System. Those who are. responsible for the work of the Red Cross have re peatedly and voluntarily expressed their recognition and appreciation of the aid given and the work don > for the Red Cross by the personnel, operative and executive, of th* Bell System. A new campaign Is starting. I hope when it is over that we shall stand still hlghef in their appr*, elation, and, above all, higher in our own self-esteem, and feel that while we may not have done all we would, we have done all that we could.
