RED CROSS roll CALL
FOR CHRISTMAS WEEK
American Public Asked to Respond With Uni
versal Membership.

Cross workroomA, Employees day
(when special tribute will be paid to
the contribution made by the laboring
man), the week ending with d general
Cleanup day, when every person In
the community not yet enrolled will
again be personally solicited for mem
bership.
1t is believed that some time during
the week at least n performance Of
the masque, "The Roll Call" especial
~ written by Mr.. Percy Mackaye, with
stage settings designed by Robert Ed
mond Jones, will be given in every
community. This has but twelve
speaking parts and Is arranged espe-
cially for community presentation,
with men, women and children in the
pantomime parts. It can be given
either deliberately Of very simply, as
conditions warrant. In its dramatic
theme it expresses the emancipation
Of the human spirit from tyranny
through the %humanizing agency Of the
American Red Cross. Copies Of the
masque, as well as directions for. cos
tuning and incidental music, can be
secured at Red Cross Headquarters in
every town and city.
One of the most novel and interest
ing features Of the campaign promises
to be the One-day and One-Hour plan
Of enrollment. This consists Of divid-
ing the community into units Of one
hundred houses, the idea being to have
sufficient workers to canvass these
homes practically simultaneously, a
sort of "home stretch" distributing
the work among many with a mini
mum Of time consumed by each.
The official uniform worn by Roll
Call workers will be a cap and arm
brassard. These are to be made Of
red flannel and a small paper circle in
white will carry the Red Cross en-
blem. This uniform will serve both as
protection against the INSCRIPTIONS and
as an aid to the workers themselves.
Corporations, business firms and in
dustries will be supplied with q 1909
Service flag.
There will be nc Christmas sale Of
tuberculosis seals this year. Instead,
preparation of $2,5OO,OOO for this work,
and ten seals will be awarded each
person who joins the Roll Call as a
reminder Of the very important werk
being done by the National Tubercu-
losis Association.
Wars may come and wars may 60,
but the Red Cross goes on forever.
Will you not be among the first to
place your name on the 1919 member

WHAT COUNTRY MUST DO
FOR IT'S DISABLED SOLDIERS
of Reconstruction Confront American Red
Cross With New Tasks and New Responsibilities.

again, a Christmas story. This Red
Cross Institute will, in So far as is hu.
manly possible, have the relative who
will be responsible for the are of the
blind man when he returns home, take
the government training. side by side
with him, as is now done by the British
and French. With this full under
standing at home of his difficulties and
possibilities, many an ambition at first
undreamed Of may be fulfilled.
Through the gift of Jeremiah Mil
bank OF New York the Red Cross was
enabled to establish in New York its
experimental Red Cross Institute for
Crippled and Disabled Men. One Of
its principal objects is to assist in the
general campaign of public education
regarding the results which can be ac-
complished by systematically refrain
ing disabled men for occupations In
which they al successfully compete
with ~able-bodied men.
THUS equipped" writes w. Frank
Persons, Director General Of Civilian
Relief of the American Red Cross,
"they may confidently look forward to
q future Of normal human work and
play" -.

NO FIXED QUOTAS FOR 1919.

So great is the faith of the American
Red Cross in the American people that
quotas have been assigned to Red
Cross Chapters for the enrolment of
members in the Red Cross Christmas
Roll Call. Universal membership Is
the goal. Chapters are limited only
by the number Of people in their ju-
risdictions. The Roll Call will be fin
ished only when every available per-
son, without regard to age or sex, has
been enrolled. Children may join only
through the Junior Red Cross Auxilia-
ries. and their membership dues are
twenty-five cents a year. The chief
aim in enrolling is not to raise money
but t increase the membership. Spe-
cial emphasis is laid upon the regular
membership at $1.OO per year. but priv
ilege will be given to enroll as a Con-
tributing Member at $500. Sustaining
Member at $1,000. Life Member at
5000 or Patron at $4,000.

When American soldiers, blinded in
battle, recover from their immediate
wounds at the base hospitals in France
special work for them is commenced.
Later they are brought to the United
States Military General Hospital No.
Z, at Baltimore, for further medical
and surgical treatment and special
teaching. The ideal of tn. government
will be to place every blinded man in
a condition to take care Of himself and
those dependent on him. In many
cases, 1t is hoped. the men will be. able
to command a larger salary after TAX
ing their training than before they lost
their sight.
American Red Cross has supple
mented the Army's plan by creating
the Red Cross Institute for the Blind.
One of its functions will be to provide
certain financial aid to equip the blind
man after his re-education is complet-
ed, as for instance, furnishing type
writer's to those who enter CONNER
cial life. 1t will be unearthing new &C.
equations, helping to establish homes
and arrange home work for those who

WHO ARE LEFT BEHIND

Because of her continued absence
from school and the fact that she lived
In rather an undesirable neighborhood
and was on the streets all day q school
teacher recently brought to the atten-
ton Of the Home Service department
Of the Red Cross the story of q girl Of
ten years whose mother was i'll and
whose only other relatives were two
brothers, one in camp and the other a
youth of seventeen whose earnings
seemed 70 be the only means of sup
poftf 0r the family.
The Home Service worker called,
found the mother very Ill and needing
hospital care at nee. Arrangements
were made for the mothers care and
also for a home for the girl In the
country where she would receive real
home training and love. The mother
grew worse and died soon afterwards.
The seventeen-year-old boy enlisted.
The boy in camp had not known that
his mother needed his help, but was
glad to contribute from his pay when
the true circumstances were made
known. The girl is nov In the coun-

TIME American Red Cross has be-
come very active In that part Of

tok, and the prompt medical assistance
rendered that distressed country has
resulted In saving thousands Of lives.
The rescue work done by the Red

has assumed prOdigious proportions
and is daily becoming greater In scope.

were found living In tents and freight

way west of Hardin, a pitiable. A
majority Of them are farmers. though
there are many coal miners and rail-
way employees In the number, people
who were driven from their homes by
the Bolsheviki, and some German and
Austrian war prisoners. d.
The work Of administering TO the
wounded Czecho- Slovak fighters, who
steadfastly refused to recognize the
Bolsheviki-German peace, and reliev-
ing the distress Of the homeless civil
ians was started the moment their
plight was brought to the attention Of
the American Red Cross. The relief
work was directed by CHAR X. Mo-
ser, American consul and head Of the
Red Cross chapter at Harbin. Ameri-
can Red Cross chapters al Tokyo and
Shanghai also gave valuable aid.
While waiting for instructions frox
America, they went ahead and raised
funds in V%ladivostok which, provided
temporary relief for both sod, RS and
civilians.

And as our soldiers and sailors who

means teaching the blind to see, CIV

Our government. the Medical De

can He'd Cross, from the time of our
entrance in the war, have been work
ing out the tasks preparatory to this
reconstruction, which is the key-word
to their usefulness and happiness.
The work itself Is already begun in
the hospitals where our returned men
have been brought.
This has meant the equipment OF
hospitals, the recruiting Of the doc
tors and nurses and the formulation of
plans, for training for vocations, which
means independence, replacing activi-
ty for inactivity.
For this physical reconstruction in
our military hospitals at home, our
