For the Sake of the Soldier. THE VOLUNTARY WORK OF BRISBANE WOMEN.... By RITA MACLEOD. It would be just as impossible to give a complete account of the voluntary war work of Brisbane women as it would be to give a complete history of the actions of the soldiers in this war. There are countless deeds of devotion of which no record has ever been made, or ever will be. But there are results, and this little booklet is an attempt to give a resume of the work performed by Brisbane women for the sake of the soldier during the last three years. Since the commencement of the war in 1914, organisations have sprung up wherever the need of the soldier has been recognised. They have mainly been the result of the efforts of women. The work has been entirely voluntary, and the enthusiasm has by no means diminished as one year has succeeded another. Many women have altered the whole tenor of their lives, and given their undivided attention and energy to the soldier. But the outstanding feature of the war work has been the courage with which women who have lost their sons have again taken up the thread of work for the common good. It is something too deep for passing words of appreciation. It is that which no pen can write--no words describe. THE NEW POULSEN STUDIOS Phone: Central 793. At the Old Address.

FOR THE WOUNDED, SICK AND CONVALESCENT, AND PRISONERS OF WAR. The sign of the Red Cross has been an emblem of relief and comfort to thousands and thousands of soldiers during the last three years--and the women of Queensland have contributed their full share to that emblem. In the busy thoroughfares of the city, in the quietness of the home, and in the outlying districts of mining, agriculture and station holds they have worked incessantly since the outbreak of war. The Red Cross Society was the first institution established for the benefit of soldiers in Queensland. It started from a well-represented meeting in the Brisbane Town Hall in August, 1914, and has increased to such an extent that there is scarcely a town in Queensland in which there is not a branch of the Society, while in Brisbane alone there are 34 branches of Red Cross activity.
