the people here that they will respond
in buying every one of the 2,200 tic

For Cuba.

DEAR SIR-The daughters of the
American Revolution in Colorado have
decided to undertake at once to raise
funds to be placed at the disposal of
the Red Cross Society, to be spent
either for the relief of the suffering
of Cuba or for hospital work in our
own country. 1t is well known how
great the demand has been and still
is for funds to meet the needs in
Cuba, and how near at hand may be
the cali to minister to our own SOL
diers and sailors in hospitals. The
nature of the work of the Red Cross
Society and its record are so well
known that they need no emphasis
now.
In the present crisis in our nations
affairs the Red Cross Society depends
upon our own people for support, and
all should bear part in its work.
The Society of the Daughters of the
American Revolution acts merely as
an agent in this work of raising
funds, and it earnestly invites all to
assist it in making a general appeal
for this noble cause.
Contributions from the smallest
amounts upwards are solicited. While
the members of the society will make
personal appeals as far as possible, it
is hoped that no one will wait to be
asked for gifts, but will send them at
once to Mrs. Edgar T. Ensign, Treas
urer, 1909 North Nevada Avenue.
All money will be forwarded promptly
to the headquarters of the Red Cross
Society in New York.
