With the Third Army Of Occupation
to Patrol Enemy Soil.

Word was received last night by

Arthur S. Miller, who is with the 7th
regiment Of engineers in Europe. The

Sedan at the time hostilities ceased.
He has been in the midst of active
fighting for some months and writes
that he has escaped without any seri-
Gus injury.

will you name be on the list?"
This Is the question which now con-
fronts every man and woman of the
United States today. Sunday, Deem
Der %, is the day on which a house
to house anvas will be made in both
cities n an effort to d 5000 men,
bers to the Red Cross organization
will be made.
AS members join, the committee will
give them a Roll Call button. adding
workers will then turn the names in to
their captains, and they will be re-
corded and kept by the Red Cross
chairman.
Why the Roll Call?
The Red Cross now faces work
during the war. Reconstruction will
involve an enormous amount of sac
rifice and expense. and it remains for
the American Red Cross to shoulder
the burden. This can be done only
with the assistance Of the American
people, and without their assistance
the Red Cross is powerless.
The committee for the house to
house canvass will include those who
took part in the last membership
drive. and any others who wish to vol
unteer their aid may call L.. H.
schnabel, N. w. 1861, this evening. A
list of the solicitors will appear to-
morrow.
The following Roll Call song has
been devised, to be sung to the tune
Of Keep the Home Fires Burning:
"Join now in December,
Be a Christmas member;
Get your Red Gross button
While the Roll. Calls on.
Though you work or sorrow,
There's a joy tomorrow
To wear your badge of service
When the boys come home"
