Franks OPTOMETRIST AND OPTICIAN TALLULAH, LOUISIANA I was spent during the month of August by the Gulf Divisien of the American Red Cross, according to a statement made Saturday by Harry L. Hopkins. director of Civilian Relief. Up to Aug ust, 1919, a total of $114.624.76 had bees spent for this work in Alabama. Louisiana and Mississippi. During August, $12.264.25 was spent for the same purpose i: these staten. "This mak^s a total," said Mr. Hop kins. "of $1:6,K89.10 expended for the relief of families of soldiers in the Gulf Divisk,n. of which sum a tenth was spent during the month of August. The reason for this is primarily the fact that most able-bodied soldiers are dis :har ed by this time and are fully able to take care of their families them selves. Those who remain are to a large degree those who are still in the hospitals and who can do nothing for the persons dependent upon them. e A very significant feature of this re port is the striking manner In which it emptfa.izes the need for the continua tion of the Red Cross work even in times of peace. Obviously, if we are spending more for the relIef of soldiers' families in August-nearly a year after the ending of the war-than we were r duridfg the war itself, our work Is far from finished. B "Incidentally, th!s Home Service work is only one branch of the tremen dous Peace Time program which the Red Cross has mapped out for itself. Tay other departments are fully as im portant to the welfare of every comma nty in the Gulf states. It Is for this reason that the Red Cross is holding a third annual roll ca!I this year, Novem ber 2 to 11. "i3y the wy.
