Begin Campaign
For Membership
LOCAL RED CROSS CHAPTER NANTS2OOOI
subcommittee Are Named TO Handle Work in
Benewah County.

"If the Christ child could ac-
tually come in the flesh and
should find the lighted casdles ON
Yuletide night shining thru Red
Cross service banners, He would
be doubly pleased because He
knows that all Red Cross work
is done in His name"
"A Red Cross service banner in
a window in every home in st.
Maries," is the slogan which is
to be pushed for the Xmas week
membership drive of the Ameri-
can Red Cross, with an objective
of 1000 as the enrolment of this
city. Where there are two mem
bers or more in a home one ban
ner will be used with additional
stars to show the number of
members.
C. w. Leaf has been selected
as chairman for the drive in
Benewah county. He is busy
naming committees and arrang-
ing for meetings of captains, and
is eager for 1000 members in
this county.
There are two points to be
emphasized i'm the campaign.
One is the fact that this is to be
a membership, not a soliciting
campaign for funds. There are
~ The U. S. at this time about
s, 100000 members. It is the
purpose to increase the enroll
ment to twenty millions. To do
this a house to house canvass is
to be carried on in every locality
in the country.
"There is no better Xmas
present for a soldier or sailor
than assurance that he and his
family will be cared for in case
of emergency" is the argument
in favor of the campaign. A
gOOdie to eat or a can of tobacco
will bring temporary cheer, but
knowledge that he will receive
prompt attention and expert care
in case of illness or injury, and
the knowledge that his family will
be kept from want in his absence
assure him of the support of the
people at home and will cheer
him in his efforts. 1t is not a
work of charity. It is merely
performing a duty and meeting
an obligation. Show the soldier
boys from home that you care by
joining the Red Cross now.
The campaign for members is
being carried on at the present
time and the work in the sections
Of the county outside of this city
is under the direction of the fol-
lowing: Tensed Mrs. Clara Jor-
dan; Fernwood, Mrs. J X. Hood,
Plummer, Mrs. Mccormick
Treffry, Mrs. Terrell; Sanders
Mrs. C. F. English; Emida, Miss
Fanny Amey; st. Joe, Chas. An

is MARRIAGE FAILURE?
Yes, Says War Dept, If 1t Was to
Keep Him Out of War.

Washington, April 19.-Men of mil
itary age who have married since the
state of war against Germany was
declared, will not escape their obli-
CATION of military service under a war
department policy formally announced
today.
The statement follows:
1.-The war department announces
that all men married since the out
break of war will be treated upon the
sa me basis as unmarried men in so
far as the military obligations are con-
cerned. 1t is desired the utmost pub
licity be given by the press to this an
nouncement."
The department was. moved to take
this action in order that all men should
understand exactly what is contem-
plated in the organization of an army
to fight Germany. 1t was desired that
there should arise no question of
slackers upon the scores of maria ges
contracted since the outbreak of war
with the possible construction that the
marriage in any case was fastened in
order that military duty might be
eyaded.

In view of national baby week, ones
thoughts turn to the effect that war
has had on the children of belligerent
countries, besides making many of
them orphans. The Children's Blu
reau of the United States Department
of Labor has learned the juvenile de-
linquency has increased in those coun-
tries, and more children have been
employed under adverse conditions
Also, the home life has been broken
up by the necessity of the fathers b.
sence in the army and the mothers
bsence in her task as bread winner
The bureau recommends that pro-
vision be made in this country to pre-
vent a possible repetition of the harm
full effects experienced by the chill
dren across the water. With this end
in view, the children's bureau has be-
gun an investigation of conditions in
foreign countries bearing on this ques-
ton, and will soon publish a series
of special articles about children in
war times.
A preliminary survey emphasizes
the Importance of a strict enforcement
of the child labor and school attend
ance laws and a generous development
of infant welfare work by public and
private agencies. Therefore, it is sug-
SASlSu That d wen planned -DdDy week
this year will be more valuable than
it has ever been before.
The WomanS Club of Topeka under
whose auspices the coming baby week
is being given, is looking to the well
fare of both mother and child, and
the mem bers of the committee, with
Mrs. S. S. Beggs, and Mrs. D. L. Nc
Eachron at the head, are expecting
big registra ton before the books close
April %. They especially want moth
ers to know that if it is not convenient
for them to go in person to register
the ba bieS, a letter addressed to the
Infant Department of Pelletier's store
containing the name, sex and age of
the child, will be carefully attended
to by those in charge.
1t is an opportunity no mother can
afford to overlook. for no matter how
much she may know about the care
of babies and the tendencies of her
own, she can always learn a little
more if she has willing and recep-
tive mind.
