 Annistons chapter was organized a year ago with six members. and today has, 1450 members and the five thriving auxiliary chapters. As a result of the liberality of the barbers who donated tho income of all the work done on the morning of the Fourth of July s213 was given the chapter and a nice amount from the golf tournament or the afternoon of the Fourth. The la borers in the various plants of An niston have signified a willingness 70 donate at an early date the proceeds of some morning or afternoons work.
 Tho literary clubs are giving a morning out of every week to the Red Cross work. The negro women many of whom sew beautifully. are very faithful. There are two negro chap ters. one in West Anniston and one in South Anniston.
