    The following article by Charle l F ilher, Philadelphia Record columnilt, il reprinted with the pennialion of the Record in commemoration of th e R edCra l l' 8 0t h Anniverlary which WBi celebrated onAugull 22.When the Red Cross was gett ing ready to celebra tei ts 80th anniversary , which is today, a good many suggestions were offered about the form the celebra tionshould take.

    Ordinarily, a charity very properly looks upon. abirthdayas a t ime to askfor contr ibut ions, for the taskof running any organization which depends upon voluntary gifts for support is a heartbreaking one of tryingto persuade people to turn their good will into cash. Thegood will seems to exist, but reminders are needed prettyoften if the w or k i sn 't to end f or lack of funds. .

    It happens, however, that ina l l i ts workin this war,t he Red Cross has found out that soldiers and sailorsaren't getting enough letters from home. American menare superlat ively well equipped and fed, and manypowerful organizations see to their extra comforts ~ n entertainment , but there isn't any th ing an out sideagency can give them which takes the place of let te rs.

    ONE SMALL THREADTheRed Cross,then, has asked that the country payi ts respects to the anniversary by sending a great spateof letters to campsand naval bases andships and a ll thefighting front overseas. It evidentlybelieves that the mysterious thing called morale can be served.better by homemail than by the most magnificent of material gifts.

    It's an unusual sort o f ser vice f or t he men, a nd apeculiarly concise demonstration of the quality of theRed Cross: a combina tion of cool, complex, impersonalefficiency, and solicitude for the most intimateindividualproblems. The Red Cross is a world-wide organization,bolstered by international conventions, operator of asmuch equipment as an army, a dea ler in millions of dollars, and it is sti ll most deeply concerned because Joedidn't geta letter from homelast week. Our guess is thatthe lack will be remedied this week and for a goodmanymore weeks to come.The functioning of the Red Cross during a war isalways astonishing-as anoma].ous as it is indispensable.

    It establishes onesmall thread of decency and kindlinessto run among nat ions ben t on ext ermina ti ng one another. Through its agency you may receive a letter fromyour son in a German prison camp whose locat ion youdo not even know. You may send parce ls o f food , ormedicines, or games, or candy and tobacco in theassurance that they wil l be del ivered to American prisonersin a ll parts of Europe.

    SERVICE IS RECIPROCALThe service is rec iproca l - made possible becausethe same privileges are accorded enemy troops held capt ive by the United States. From nursing to the distri.bution of blood plasma, from personal conversat ionswith prisners to the inspect ion of condi tions in theircamps, the Red Cross operates through a sort of privatechannel of mercy which seems almost aloof from war.Because it a t tends to men in their hours of greatestmisery, it knows what the needs of soldiers and sai lorsare. The need for letters must be greater than mostof ushave realized, .else the Red Cross would have concenb'ated upon one of its other services at this anniversary.The fact, for example, t hat i t isn'tmade an occasion fora great drive for blood donors suggests that there is anemo tional emp tine ss a s a cu te a s any th ing physi ca l

    could be. 'The Red Cross seems tohave a kind of humility, forall its size. It knows that there isonekind of pain whichit can't relieve. Only the people at home can write anything that matters.
