slip-up somewhere and do the right
thing by going to the old city hall and
asking for one or clip out the member
ship blank in your newspaper and
mail it to the Red Cross headquarters
in the old City Hall.
II the Boy Scouts of Wilmington as
they are doing, give OF their time and
effort to distribute these letters to the
houses throughout this city, surely the
householder aH-i every member Of the
family should be willing to respond in
the small way asked. The distribution
by the Boy Scouts started yesterday
afternoon, but don't wait too long to
get a letter. Action Immediately must
be taken for the campaign will last
only the remaining days Of this week.
It must be short and successful.
This campaign does not affect the
membership Of the 1900 who Joined
last May for their membership con-
tinues for year from that time but
there's nothing to prevent them from
Joining over again if they are willing
TO do so.
II is hoped that the application

clipped from the advertisements in the
newspapers, will be filled out and re-
turned promptly. with the 81 fec, to
the old City Hall, which is open each
day from TO o'clock to receive
