Scope of Red Cross
Organizations Outlined

For purposes of uniformity In the
organization work In the Pacific d.
vision, of which Nevada is a part, II
Is requested that when possible
where a chapter of the American Red
Cross. has been established In a
county, that the other towns of that
county form branches or auxiliaries
to this chapter. A branch, Is an or
ganiztaion of the American National
Red Cross, which takes the name of
the community or town, where 1t Is
formed, and which performs in It's
own locality all the duties of the
chapter. 1t organizes by selecting an
executive committee representing all
classes of the community from which
are chosen board of managers,
chairman, vice chairman, secretary
and chairmen of standing committees
All funds received by the branch
whether in membership dues or
otherwise, are retained by the branch
and expended by them for Red Cross
work except the proportionate share
which Is required to be sent to
Washington. This share is sent to
the parent chapter, together with a
list of the membership of the branch.
The chapter keeps a record OF the
membership and In turn transmits to
the National Headquarters, the
money received from the branch.
An auxiliary is a local organiza-
tion of members of the American
National Red Cross. Its term of ex-
istance is one year only, unless ex-
tended beyond that time by the pa
rent chapter. An auxiliary may be
organized among any group of peo-
pie in a small town. II may be or
ganized in a school. church, union or
fraternal organization but must con-
sist Of at least ten members. 1t elects
officers and appoints such commit
tees as appears advisable. 1t re-
ceives membership and subscriptions
and turns all money received to the
parent chapter. The parent chapter
Is then expected TO provide such ma
terials as may be needed by the
auxiliary or refund a portion of the
money with which the supplies may
be purchased. An auxiliary performs
only such duties as are assigned 1t by
the chapter and in consequence has a
lighter responsibility placed upon 1t
than in the case of branch.
In the care OF both branches and
auxiliaries all communications should
be addressed to the parent chapter
and supplies. literature and pins OBJ
tanned from them.

DRIVE FOR THE LIBERTY LOAN

The drive for the flotation of the
second great Issue OF Libery bonds
Ia now under way ana has started
with an impetus that certainly
should carry II well over the goal.
The machinery for the exploitation
of the issue has been organized with
great care, with full advantage taken
of experience gained in the conduct
of the first campaingn last June.
That was the most successful OF tho
kind ever tried. Not only was the
amount OF the bonds issued large but
the total OF proffers and number Of
subscribers exceeded the experience
of European governments. The hope
now is that our own record will be
broken this time and a new mark es-
tablished.
The great rush and confusion of
preparation for war is now over and
the business of conducting our share
In the undertaking is taking on or
derly form. Patience and admins
trative skill, combined with utmost
willingness to serve, have succeeded
in bringing all the great forces OF
the nations manifold and diversified
life into unison and Americans are
proving that demooraeies can be ef-
flclent in great emergencies. I'm
mense sums of money are needed to
carry forward the work we have set
about and these sums will be forth
coming to the uttermist penny. Just
as this nation has devoted its man
power to the defense of liberty. so
has 1t pledged its wealth and 1t VIII
be niggard with neither.
Patriotism will be the great spur
in animating subscribers to the Lib
erty Loan, but for those whose ardor
may not be so readily moved to heat
the nroposition has its attraction.

ODD FELLOW MEMORIES KEPT
GREEN-lOYAL MEMBERS
RING TRUE.

Never in the history of the Order of
Odd Fellows has such loyal, patri-
otic and devoted demonstration been
made evincing the true love for the
departed and absent brothers, sisters
and juveniles as was shown Tuesday
night at Odd Fellows hall, crowded
to the doors. Men whose feebled and
sickened condition was apparent strug
gled up the stairs and were present:
women who also were ill, forgetful OF
themselves, came out and the juve-
niles were out to show how devoted
they were TO their dead members.
True loyalty and sincere devotion was
shown in the extempore talks by Mrs.
Mahala Phillips on the memory of Mrs.
Eta Mann Gordon, and by J. w. Jack
son on our late Frank c. Payne. The
program was carried out as written
and all persons were requested. to re-
duce their eulogies to writing SO that
the historian of the order may later
use them. Brother T. S. Rector was
appointed 70 furnish the early data of
the social, religious and financial con-
ditions of our pioneers in the order.
A grand time was passed.
