With the Editor

We have received a number of inquiries from our young subscribers in reference to what they may do for the soldiers and sailors. The following circular letter which has just been received will, we feel sure, interest all of our subscribers. The work outlined is certainly to be commended, and we hope to hear of branches of this society being started in other parts of the country.

First New York Ambulance Red Cross Equipment Society.
(Auxiliary to American Red Cross Relief Committee.)
Honorary President, Treasurer,
Bishop Potter. Robert Bacon
(J. P. Morgan & Co.).
"Orange, N. J., May 31, 1898.

"The First Dearborn-Morgan School Auxiliary of the New York Ambulance Red Cross Equipment Society has been organized for the purpose of interesting boys and girls in the present relief work of the Red Cross. The Red Cross is an international society which was formed to give help to the wounded in war-time, irrespective of friend or foe.

"The purpose of the New York Ambulance Red Cross Equipment Society is to assist the Red Cross during this war between America and Spain by providing ambulances and ambulance launches for moving sick or wounded soldiers to field hospitals or hospital ships.

"All contributions to the First Dearborn-Morgan School Auxiliary may be sent either to the President or to the Treasurer.

"It is earnestly hoped that all boys and girls will assist in this national work."
