Written by Members of the
County Chapter at Hinckley.

In the Christmas Membership
Drive which the American Red
Cross will launch on December
18th to acquire ten million new
members by Christmas Eve, a
striking feature will be the use
Of Red Cross Service Flags to be
posted in the windows of the
homes of Red Cross members.
These flags will be ready early
in December and may be order
ed from the Chapter at Hinckley,
and it is hoped that every home
in Pine County will show one of
these Service Flags with the
beautiful candle ceremony on
Christmas Eve.
Permission has been granted
for the organization of a branch
at Cloverton.
An Auxiliary was formed at
Denham about two months ago
with % members. They have
nearly so members and will be-
come a branch.
G. H. Cunningham of Sturgeon
Lake asked to be excused from
service on the Chapter Advisory
Board as other duties are so pres
sing that he is unable to give the
time to the study of this work
that he would like to. A. E.
Eddy of Brook Park, was ap-
pointed.
The total number of Christ
mas packets sent out from Pine
County was 149, of which Hink-
ley sent 81.
The Barry Union Aid Auxilia-
ry will have S45 or $50 to pres
ent to the Chapter, soon. This
money has been raised by an in
genious method. Cards were
mailed to every family in the
neighborhood asking as a free
will offering a sum of pennies
equal to the total ages of the
members in the family.
Watch for the Red Cross girls,
who win tell you all about the
service Flags and how you can do
n real service for a noble cause
during this Christmas season.
The Red Cross sewers are to
have a vacation on Friday after
noon and the sewing room will
be closed.
