THE TWICE-A-WEEK DEMOCRAT

IT'S A LONG WAY TO SOOTH WALES BUT THE REO CROSS IS THERE

BEATRICE MANLEY, seven years old and "small to her age,” has arrived a. her new home in Wales, Lhcre she will live with her grandparents. Beatrice has been a protege of the Red Cross for several months while arrangements were pending for her Journey to the country overseas. When the Influenza epidemic raged so strongly a year ago Beatrice’s father and mother died at their home In Gravity, Kentucky. The grandparents In South Wales wrote to the British Consul In this country asking him to plan for Beatrice’s trip to Wales, where she would live with them. British Consul enlisted the services o* the American Red Cross. After the deaTh of her parents, Beatrice was taken by a kindly family near her home. The people offered to care for her as their own, but the prior claim of the grandparents was readily acceded when the Red Cross told them of the letter from Wales. Then while the Red Cross Home Sendee Sections in that part of Kentucky were busy settling up Beatrice’s "estate" of 545 and securing for sale, furniture that had graced the little Manley home and which had been taken by neighbors who thought they deserved ’t for care given the Manleys, Beatrice awaited further word of her Journey to Wales. Several matters had to be straightened out first and the Red Cross was commissioned to find for the small traveler a suitable’ chaperone. Weeks passed until one was secured and the child became a great favorite with the passengers aboard ship. A representative of London Chapter of the American Red Cross, which is under jurisdiction of the Fourteenth Division, met Beatrice when she arrived in Plymouth, where the grandparents awaited her. The Fourteenth Division has arranged for a visitor from the Cardiff, Wales, Chapter to visit the home frequently and keep in touch with the family. The London Chapter writes: "Mr. and Mrs. Manley are delighted to have Beatrice with them and are very grateful to the Red Cross for care given the child. They had not been away from their village before and felt but for the Red Cross they would have had great difficulty in finding the child at the port.”

These accounts will be sent speedily to Washington. . Five doctors and 11 other workers of the American Red Crosj Commission remain in middle Siberia to distribute the large amounts of relief supplies previously shipped into the interior. Much of the work was halted and .mmediate evacuation of several warehouses made necessary through the wars jetween the various factions. American Red Cross workers at Chita supplied clothing for 3,000 miners, 5,000 railway employes and their families, 3,000 Austro-German prisoners and approximately 1,000 civilians during the recent particularly bitter cold of the Arctic winter there.
