red cross have rallied to the cause and have given more than ever before but the need is so great in the lonely but- lying sections of the province that the red cross is putting forward a wide spread appeal to keep the nurses in the north where they are so urgently needed it is but drops of water enough of them that make the sea a dollar or part of one and enough of them will make a grand total
