RED CROSS GOES
To SAVE LIFE
The Bandages You Make
May Be Used On
Your Boy
The Prayer of the Bell.


Did YOU know that you are expect
cd to offer prayer every day when
the city clock strikes twelve, for the
victory of our armies and for a per-
manent peace!
Stop whatever you are doing at
that time, uncover your head, and
offer the simple prayer, "God bless
our President, our soldiers, our ma
tion, and guide them to victory"
Drive for Membership.
The drive for new and renewal of
membership in the Red Cross is being
conducted all over the county this
week. If you have not joined the
Red Cross, do it now. If you are a
member, renew your membership at
this time. 1t does not matter very
much with the individual if the dol
lar is not exactly due, but it will
help the Chapter Treasurer with the
books, so when the collectors come to
you, just help out by renewing now.
