 $l0O TO RED CROSS
Pine Bluff Philanthropists Make Dona- tion as Christmas Present to
 Local Society.

A check for $10O as Xmas pres ent to the local chapter of the Red Cross society, was turned in to the executive committee of the society last night with the compliments of Capt. and Mrs. Sebastian Geisreiter. The money was given to be used by the To- cal chapter as it's officers deem best, and the executive committee placed the welcome gift at the disposal of Mrs. Haizlip, who will use it for the purchase of materials to be made into bandages and garments at the Red Cross sewing rooms here.
 The executive committee also ap- proved the decision to close the sew ing rooms thru the holidays. The la- dies who have worked SO unselfishly and steadily since the rooms were op- ened were commended, and urged to rest thru the holidays.
 Discussion of the plans for a cam paign to bring the membership of the American Red Cross to 25,O00,OOO, of which Jefferson county is expected to furnish 5000, led to the decision to leave the local campaign to Rev. H. A. Stowell, president, and B. B. Bloom, secretary, of the Pine Bluff branch. These gentlemen will announce in few days their plans for increasing the membership of the society in this county.
