BENEFIT WOMAN'S ATHLETC.
The Club Has Taken UP the Red Cross
Medical Association Work.

The Red Cross Medical association or
ganized few days ago by the physicians
and druggists of the city. has turned the
soliciting over to the Womans Athletic
club and from now on the young ladies
of this club viii carry on that part of
the Red Cross work. Their club is GER
tainly doing a grand work among the
girls of this city, and by taking a Red
Cross membership you not only join an
associa ton that may be of great benefit
to you. but you are helping the young
ladies with their work. The plan of the
Red Cross Medical association is sim
ply this: A membership costs you only
20 cents per month, and in case You. be-
come sick or receive an injury they pay
your doctor drug and hospital bills.
There is no way you can invest 20 cents
a month that will give you better re-
turns. The young ladies should. and no
doubt will. receive the patronage of the
entire city, for all can afford 20 cents
per month. but very few can af-
ford long sick spell membership
makes each Of us independent of char
ity and gives the satisfaction of know
ing you will be taken care of in case the
unexpected happens.
When one of these young ladies calls
on you don't send her away until she
has had an opportunity to explain their
work and remember that by taking a
membership in the Red Cross Medical
association you are helping two deserv-
ing organizations and are apt TO receive
big returns for the money it costs you.
Applications may be signed with any
r.
tary's office, room - Turner building
corner First and Market streets.
The following letter has been received
by the Red Cross association from Mrs.
