In the first picture we see a lot of officers at a house party, when news comes that the enemy has attacked the outpost. Without hesitating a moment the men bid their wives and sweethearts good-bye and hasten to the scene of battle. Among the party is a young officer who is in love with the host's daughter, and when he leaves with the rest the maiden and a companion make preparations to join the Red Cross Society and be of service to the wounded men on the battlefield. The young woman takes her two beautiful dogs with her and presents herself at the camp where her father and sweetheart are stationed, and she and her companion are soon mustered into service. The next picture shows the enemy attacking some soldiers of the outpost, and one of the wounded fellows hastens to the camp and gives the alarm that the foe is near. We see the regiment form in line and go forth to meet the enemy, followed by a lot of dogs who are loaded down with an outfit of "First Aid to the Wounded." Then comes the battle, and, when at its height, the soldiers one after the other fall to the ground, the faithful dogs are seen going around among the wounded so that those who are able may take the necessary medicines to soothe their pain. The young officer mentioned above as being in love with the host's daughter soon falls also, and when his sweetheart's dog comes to him with medical aid, the animal takes the man's hat in his mouth and hastens hack to the camp, where the fiancée recognizes it immediately. She follows the dog to the spot where the wounded fellow lies and there is an affecting meeting between the two. The officer is then borne back to the camp, where his sweetheart nurses him. The next scene shows the rest of the nurses hurrying to the battlefield, and, with the aid of the dogs, we seen them administering to the needy who lie wounded on all sides.
