THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON

e'tro the five million members working
locally with us today, to stand by the
cc1ors To the fifteen million members
who will Join us before Christmas Eve, to
fall in This is the message of Henry ?.
Dawson, chairman Of the Red Cross So
c;ety's War Council. A message which is
receiving ready response all over the
country.
Nothing that Pensacola has ever at
tempted has been more systematically car
ried out than has the work of the Red
Gross. Since it's very inception, the women
OF Pensacola have given themselves whole
heartedly to the work, many of them con-
secrating their entire time to the work
rooms.
If you have never visited the workrooms
OF the Red Cross you can have no concep-
ton of the work that is being carried on
there. The shelves are piled high with
bandages and garments that have been
made by the women of this section. But
it is an old and tried aphorism that the
busy person always has time for one more
cuty and as an evidence of this, the women
of the Red Cross are zealously eniisting
in all movements for governmental aid IN
very large numbers.
Pensacola has made a+splendid record in
every branch of war relief work under
taken here, and indications point to won
derfu1 results from the Red Cross drive
Tt is said that this is one of the most pros
porous seasons that Pensacola has ever en-
joyed, in financial way. If So then it is
a time for generous giving,-not the giving
Of trifles better dispensed with but the
participation in the Red Cross campaign
and other allied activities in the only prac-
teal way for increasing membership,-by
either taking out membership yourself or
inducing someone else to become a mem
Der, in order that the fifteen million mark
may be reached by the end of the week.
which is to be given over to this work
Surely in no other way can the spirit of
Christmas be more beautifully illustrated,
than through contributions to the Red
Cross, which is the exemplifcation of the
Christ spirit, which is surely the spirit of
the Christmas season.

they propose to help the postmaster of that
