The NFCCS and the Red Cross Merit Our Support Now Physical and mental depravation are stalking the world and taking a toll of lives. They have brought chaos to once orderly people, have scattered families across bat tle-scarred mountains and flood-swollen rivers. The destructive elements of nature and the wilful destruction by men in war have resulted in extreme pover ty, homeless families, and famine of mind and soul. It is the victims of war and Communist occupation in Europe and Asia who are helped by the NFCCS; the Red Cross is the helping hand to Americans and others suffering from floods, fire, snowstorms. . . Such victims of disaster have many things in common with our next door neighbors, our friends at Mundelein. More important, they are all members of the Mystical Body, and with them we have an intimate spiritual union. The Red Cross Fund Raising campaign was launched last Tuesday; the present NFCCS drive is nearing its end. Both need YOUR support YOUR dimes, and YOUR dol lars. And they need YOUR prayers.

British, and Rus sian troops were quartered in the city for several years. Iranian homes are much like those in America, she notes, except that there Persian rugs are used as wall decorations and furniture throws as well as on the floors. Meals, however, arc different, with rice and lamb as the favorite foods and tea the ordinary beverage. Only babies drink milk, she notes.
