tributed.
IN order that contributors to the War
Fund may keep in touch with Red Cross
affairs through the medium of the maga-
zine, it Is desirable that such contribu-
tors in amounts in excess Of $200 as have
only been given an opportunity to indi-
cate their desire to become an annual
member should be given an opportunity
to indicate that they desire to become
subscribing members and thus receive the
magazine and such changes In classical
tion ma" be made upon the specific re-
quest OF contributors. Chapters may or
may not take up with contributors in
these cases in accordance with their own
wishes
The above should not be considered az
suggestion to chapters to urge the en-
rollment of members, but rather a means
10 accomplish this enrolment in a uni
form manner of such contributors to the
war Fund as In their opinion did so with
the express understanding that they were
to become members Of the Red Cross.
chapters are cautioned to carefully
avoid duplicating names and addresses
and on the other hand. they are urged to
begin returning their lists at once, in or
Ger that contributor may Immediately re-
eeve 'he magazine. No membership
claims whatever can be allowed against
the War Fund after Oct. l, 1917. It
should be remembered that his vast in
crease Of membership will have a ten
dency to overload the membership bureau
for while and Chapters receiving any
complaints in regard to delay In forward
Ing magazines. etc. should refrain from,
referring these complaints to headquar-
fers but should explain the situation to
the complainants
What Is most desired to be accom-
plished is for all to feel that every effort
is being made to give every one who
played part in raising this most sue
cessful fund just what they want and
! what IS expected and to stand back of
all representations made by any chapter
