RED Cross SERVICE
FLAG MOST POPULAR

OF the many insignia Of devotion,
patriotism and support that have
been prepared during the past year
and displayed conspicuously in the
homes, the stores and the offices,
probably none has had wider cir
culation or has been more carefully
ruarded than the Red Cross service
lag. 1t was full twelve month ago,
during the membership drive of 1918,
that these service flags were given
out as indicating Red Cross member
ship in that particular home. This
week the old service flags are being
taken down and replaced by new
ones In the windoWg, indicating that
Red Cross membership is being con-
tinued-we trust unanimously-in
that home.
Those who have travelled extern
sively during the past year say that
practically every thoroughfare and
highway throughout the length and
breadth of the country is an I'M
flags. They are to be seen in the
windows of the rich on Fifth avenue;
they are to be seen in the humble
log cabins of the Southern negro.
The Red Cross is wonderful or
ganization. It is becoming more
wonderful all the time. And the. most
wonderful thing of all about it--fn
the eyes and minds Of our Allies
abroad-is its tremendous member
ship. That 100000 persons should
have been members last year in any
organization in this rountry seemed
incredible to English, to French. Ital-
ians, etc What will our Allies say
this year when they find the total
membership instead OF being 22,000,-
Oe0 is 10000, 900, so 100000 or pos
sibly 6o.o0o,o0o? They will know tina.
the American people, to every last
man, Is behind the Red Cross in its
work.

RED CROSS HELP IS
EVER FOR ALLIES

In the coming Christmas Roll Call,
when it Is expected that every chap
ter in the New England Division will
approximate universal membership,
there are pretty sure to be a number
Of inquiries from present and pros
pective members as to the immediat.
intentions of the Red Cross In the
matter Of furnishing relief in Ger
many and Austria. II can be author
itativeiy stated that the Red Cross 10
not going into Germany and Austria.
excepting to care for our own troops
there, II for no other reason than be-
cause the United States government
has ruled that the American Red
Cross cannot at this time, extend
relief to the residents Of those coun-
tiies.
To most people this announcement
Is hardly necessary, especially when
it is borne in mind the tremendous
amount Of work already planned for
the Red Cross. There are our own
soldiers, first and foremost, both In
this country and overseas, who will
require and receive this great organ
ization's first thought and care. Then
there is an almost limitless work of
succor to be performed, in many
different ways, for our Allies, for
their soldiers. and for their return
ing prisoners, and for the refugees.
The American Red Cross will, Of
course-for that is the wish of the
American people-follow the Stars
and Stripes. But 1t Will follow that
nag only to continue it's work Of al
levfatins suffering and Of making
comfortable those who have been
1shting for the causes for which this
country entered the war.

Householders in the Middle West,
hitherto accustomed to the use Of an
thraclte coal, were placed on reduced
allotments of hard coal this winter In
order that the northeastern section Of
the country might have Its customary
full supply.
With distribution facilitated through
the working Of the zone system, the
amount of hard coal available ap-
peared to be more than ample for re-
quirements. The anthracite miners
had maintained steady level Of pro-
duction during summer and fall
months which seemed to provide con-
sentative basis for estimates.
A tremendous slump in production
followed the sweep of the influenza cpl
demic, however. Hundreds Of miners
fell Ill from the disease, and Of those
who recovered few were able to reach
their former efficiency within several
weeks
The "tons mined" figures, after a
slight upward trend from the worst Of
the "fu' effects, fell again when the
miners Joined hands with the rest of
the country in the two celebrations Of
the signing Of the armistice.

added by the fact that the songs she

she will give to buck up the boys

POLI'S.

At Polls Theater tomorrow evening
John D. Williams will offer the first
production in this city of Oscar
wilde's four-act comedy, "An Ideal
Husband. with a cast including Nor
man Trevor. formerly leading man
with Maude Adams; Constance Collier,
Cyril Harcourt, Julian LEstrange,
Beatrice Beckley, Alice Gordon and
others. The text used will be that of
the late Sir George Alexander. when
he revived this play with great sue
cess in London a few seasons ago. The
present production is inspired partly
by the timeliness Of the theme of war
diplomacy, with which the play is
filled.
No author Of the present day seems
to have the advantages or the talent
to crystalline the shades of diplomatic
intrigue into a sparkling, suspensive
play. as had Oscar Wilde.
