THE RED CROSS

A. L. Boyden, newly elected chair
man Of Medina County Chapter Of the
American Red Cross, has mailed q
letter to members Of the chapter, of
which the following is the substance:
"The plans of the Lake Division
Headquarters Of Cleveland have
changed frequently during the past
year on account of the changing
needs of the work from month to
month, and here in Medina we have
found it difficult to meet the require
ments of headquarters in Cleveland
on account Of the changes they have
made from time to time. For this
reason and because they have asked
us specifically to adopt bylaws for
our chapter, it's branches and auxil-
iaries, in harmony with their latest
plans, it was voted at our annual
meeting last week to adopt the form
of bylaws recommended by them,
their form No. 244, and accordingly
we are asking each branch or auxil-
iary to elect its own chairman, Sec
retary and a treasurer, inasmuch as
there is now no director of the County
Chapter in each local organization.
"It is urgently requested by the
Lake Division headquarters at Cleve-
land that we should not relax our eff.
forts, but on the contrary it is ex.
pected that even more work will be
required the coming year than in the
past twelve months. It is hoped thai
