A considerable saving in book
keeping will be effected by the
decision to localize membership
lists at Chapter Offices. Only
summarized reports will be kept
at Division and National Head
quarters, and provision has been
made for prompt correction of
the mailing lists Of the Red Cross
Magazine, which sent to men,
bers whose subscription amounts
to two dollars or mre.
Much time will be saved by
putting Division Headquarters,
instead of National Headquarters
at Washington, in charge of the
routine necessarily involved in
handling the records of the mem
bership, which recently passed
the four million mark.

The American Red Cross has
completed plans for securing
frequent standardized reports
from all of its 1900 Chapters as
to their financial transactions
and membership.
Under the new system of de-
centralized administration re-
Gently adopted under the direc-
ton of Harvey D. Gibson, General
Manager of the Red Cross, the
Chapters will report in detail
every month to the thirteen Di-
vision Managers, who in turn will
summarize the records of their
respective divisions and report to
National Headquarters. All of the
work formerly handled by the
Bureau of Membership at Wash
ington will now be divided be-
tween these thirteen Division
Headquarters, at each of which a
prominent business man, vOlun~
teering his service, is in charge.
A uniform system of chapter
accounting has been devised by
the Bureau of Standards, headed
lby Frederick P. Small, assistant
to the president of the American
Express Co. While chapters
which have already in operation

the new method, which is a
simplified form of dOuble-entry

cial reports will hereafter be
made on standardized forms
which will be furnished to The
Chapters.
All Chapter accounts are aud
tied by the Chapters own audit

On the same day, mind you, but
not the same year because that
year will have been on that self
same day just four hundred and
twenty-five years ago, nor can
this identical day be the same day
of the week it was when-what?
Why when Christopher Columbus
discovered-no, not the st. Joe
river, that was discovered by a
lumberjack-the land which is
now known the world over as
America. Just for a, little review
OF our history by the young folks
and the old folks, too?What day
is the Senior Don Cabellero max
ing conversation with you about
that Italian gentleman, Mr..
Christopher Columbus, with the
money loaned him by Queen Isa-
bell of Spain, discovered America.
Again by way of reviewing our
history and geography, why was
not the land of this discovery
named either in honor of Column
bus or Queen Isabella? Another
gentleman of Italian persuasion
"cOpped the prize" or to speak
in more polished words, brought
home the bacon" The key to the
whyness or whereforenes of the
wrong gent having his name
pasted over America for all time
to come is that "it pays to ad-
vertise.' For that reason it's
advertised on this here day of
which so much has been said but
so little told, a call is to be made
upon the patriotic citizens of St.
Maries to join the Benewah COun-
ty Chapter of the American Red
Cross Society. For a red-blooded
American must be either in the
trenches, on his way to the
trenches or a member Of the
American Red Cross Society.
