A MEAT MEETING I Rev. W. Paul Marsh Attended Notable Event at Indianapolis Saturday. INSPIRING SPEECHES By Henry P. Davis, Henry .1. Allen, Albert .1. Beveridge and Others. One of the mo.-t notable events in the history of the work of the American Red Gross in the state of Indiana was held at Indianapolis Saturday. It began with the luncheon in the Riley room of the ( laypool hmei given in honor of the distinguished guests, Mr. Henry I’. Davison. New York banker and head of the war council of the American Red Cross, and Mr. Henry J. Allen of Wichita. Kas., editor, politician and orator of great ability, who was a mamber of the last commission that was sent over to the war ridden countries on an inspection "of the work of the Red Cross, and who new is going over America telling the wonderful story of the wor kof the Red Cross. At the speakers table sat some of the most destinguished men in the state of Indiana. Among them were such men as Ex-governor Samuel Ralston, Will Hays, chairman State Council of Defense: Sen. Albert J. Beveridge, William Fortune. Judge A. B. Anderson. Stoughton A. Fletcher, and James W. Lilly and a host of other men. Mr. Davison and Mr. Allen were guests of hon< r. The first speaker was Albert J. Beferidge. very forceful and to the point. He spoke on the place that the Red Cross had rightly won in our hearts. Some of the strong things that he said: “America’s response to the call has been splendid: and the country has reached the heights of devotion to humanity and patriotism in the support it has given to the Red Cross. I think it is not extravagent to say that thus far this noble organization is in voluntary effort the biggest tanible developcment of the conflict. “Not only in the vast sums of money that have been given with whole-heart-ed enthusiasm, but in efficiency with which they have been used: not only in the fine spirit that inspired the contributions, but in the all but perfect business management with which these have been handled, the activities of the Red Cross have been suberb —have, indeed, furnished a brilliant and continuing example of what a free people, by and of themselves, can do when their hearts are enlisted in a cause.” "And what a purpose. The mission of the Red Cross is the highest which human nature has yet evolved —it is construction instead of demolition, healing instead of mangling, planting instead of uprooting. The spirit of the Red Cross is that of compassion rather than of hatred; and yet it is companion to that holy wrath that would scourge wrong from the world. In short, the Red Cross strives to realize, even in the midst of carnage the ideal “Peace on Earth. Good Will Toward Men.” “Thus from motives the most humans as well as patriotic all or us rejoice that we hace the privilege of becoming members of this army of human helpfulness. Every dollar given will hear the frui's of blessing to the stricken. “Every an. woman and ehild whr joins the Red Cross can be absolutely certain that by that act, some torr ! and desolate field is being restore-: ! and planted, some ruined home is be ing rebuilt, some starving child is be ing bound up.” The speech of Mr. Allen, telling o the wonderful condition, of the worl of the American Red Cross in France Words can not discribe the effect o his wonderful address upon the men It can be best discribed in the tributi General Petaine paid the America! Red Cross. And this is what Genera Petaine meant when he said that wor! ■ of the Red Cross is its restoration o the morale of the French soldiers an people is worth as much to the caus of liberty as an army of 1,500,000 so diers from our country. Mr. Davison said that some peopl were wondering why the Italian sc xliers were holding the line. He sai much was due to the strength give the Italian people through the Ame ican Red Cross. Men went, away from this meetin after hearing these sou! sturring a dresses with a determination to > more than ever before for t he cause i humanity. The one sentence and thought th: stood out in al) the meetings was be expressed by Mr. Davison, in this ma
