The third Red Cross Roll" Call is
about to begin. Shall we not enroll
you among the members of this
great organization before which lies
a great opportunity for service to
humanity, whose call it has answer
ed so nobly in the past?
The war is over! The suffering
and destitution will long remain. All
that you are asked to pledge is your
membership, in proof of your rec
ognition of the work done in the past
and your good will in its future ef
forts to maintain its high standards.
There will be no drives, either for
money or for work. The treasury
is well supplied. The work-rooms
will be open as usual, one day a week
for those who would like to have a
part in lessening the suffering of the
coming winter for the destitute of
other nations.
Our branch has in the treasury
$3300. If our organization continues
it is ours to use for local purposes
for the good of the health of our own
community from which it was drawn.
Also 409c of the proceeds of this
drive returns to us to swell this fund.
If sufficient interest is not shown to
maintain the branch, this money
must go to headquarters. It is yours
by right of work and sacrifice and
you must be interested in its dis
bursement. Join the Red Cross for the coming
year.
