MAKE ROLL CALL UNANIMOUS.

The official designation, and the only
proper characterization of the demon
stration that viii occupy the attention
of the American people. under the
auspices of the American Red Cross.
Immediately preceding the coming holt
day season, is 1.-The Red Cross Christ
mas Roll Call"
The object of the Christmas Roll
Call is to register in terms of active
participation the spirit of nation.
The spirit In question is personIiied in
Red Cross membership. 1t is not to be
a campaign" to raise a war fund nor
a drive TO strengthen the material
resources of the Red Cross organiza-
tIon. Its main objective is the ex-
tension of Red Cross membership to
the uttermost limit
See to It that no false conception of
the purpose of the Roll Cali finds lodg-
ment anywhere. and, while emphaslz-
ing the grandeur Of the movement un-
der its only logical name, keep ever
lastingly in mind the idea to-"Make
II unanimous"

WHAT HOME SERVICE MEANS.

SO many questions are constantly

many others are being Strengthened

CAT TALES.
The Workday World.

While we are bent and sweating
beneath our wartime cares, let's
not be quite forgetting Our every
day affairs. The spring will be ar
irving before we wist or wot, and
we should all be striving to have a
garden plot. Oh, spade the gar
den under, spade every knoll and
tor, and grow string beans like
thunder, for beans will win the
war. The spring is fast approach
ing, with mild reviving rain, and
conscience should be broaching a
cleaning up campaign. Oh, let US,
neighbors. rally to bear the trash
away; the dead, cat in the alley,
the scattered leaves and hay;
there'll be a plague to swat US and
NOW our numbers down if we
don't hump, dod rot US, and
brighten up the town. In Ian
guage highfalutin we may, when
work is done, denounce the loot
ing IeutOn, whose course will
soon be run. But such a course
is dubbish when there is work to
do; we should be carting rubbish
the noisome alleys through.
Now comes the season verna1
and we should all prepare to plant
a seed or kernel, or raise a Bel
gian hare; to make two succo-
flashes grow up where one has
grown, that is the stuff that
smashes the kaiser from his
throne. Oh, buckle down, fair
neighbor, though toll you may
abhor; get down to useful labor,
for work will win the war.

PLANS WOMENS RALLY.
Y. W. c. A. to Hold Meeting at First
Conversational Church.

A business women's rally to promote
the Business Women's Council of the
Young Women's Christian Association
of Washington will be held at the First
Congregational Church, Friday night
at o'clock. The purpose of the coun-
Gil is to promote the spirit of friend
illness, helpfulness and responsibility
for other girls among the business
women of the city, with the definite
aim of winning business women to &C
cept Jesus Christ as their personal
Savior and to enlist in His service
through the church"
The present membership of the coun-
ell is over 500, and 1t is expected to
grow until it embraces nearly all the
women in the city.
Friday nights meeting will be fea-
tured by stunts contributed by girls
from each business establishment rep
resented. The girls from the stores
will start in a circus parade and fol-
lowing them will come the telephone
girls and the girls from factories and
hospitals. The girl employees of the
government will conclude the program
with patriotic pageant

SAYS SHOOTING WAS ACCIDENT
Herbert Coombs Held for Woundiug
Pearl Green,

ut was an accident" was the ex-
PLANTATION given by Herbert Coombs,
colored, nineteen, of Jay street north
east. last night, when arrested in con-
nection with the shooting of Pearl
Green, colored, also nineteen, on the
road near her home in Burrville, a
short distance beyond Benning.
The bullet struck the girl in the
head, splintering her skull and dan
gerously wounding her. She was taken
to Casualty Hospital.
Coombs made no effort to elude the
police He accompanied the wounded
girl to the hospital and remained there.
1t appears that Coombs and another
young colored man were walking along
the road with Pearl Green and Lillian
Hill and that Pearl left her COM
panions and started toward her home
when Coombs fired the shot.
When placed under arrest he said
the weapon was handed him by his
companion. who told him to shoot her.
I thought I was shooting in the
air he said.
He is held at the ninth precinct po-
lice station while the police are making
further investigation of the affair.

HIGH COST UNIFORMS
HITS CAPITAL POLICE
Increase in Prices May Handicap
Mai. Pullman's Idea for
Larger Force.

High price of police uniforms prom
Uses to prove serious handicap to
members of Maj Pullman's force
guarding the National Capital. Re-
sponses to bids solicited by the depart
ment show an increase of 10 per cent
in the cost of some garments, and it is
feared the high cost of uniforms may
interfere with Maj. Pullman's drive to
recruit the force to its full strength.
1t also may mean some members of the
force will seek other positions because
of the high price of uniforms, which,
added to other expenses incident to
their work. means great reduction in
their incomes.
Increased salaries for the men is the
only remedy, according to statements
of the lowest salaried men in the de-
partment, and every effort will be made
to have Congress answer an appeal for
substantial increase. 1t has been
some time since the police received an
increase and it is their claim they
should be assisted in financial way
the same as numerous other govern
ment employees have been treated.
