u RED CROSS NOTES
Il summon you to the comradeship. ;
: Woodrow Wilson

IL summon you to the comradeship. f"
Woodrow Wilson.
The people of the world know what
the American Red Cross has done in
the past for humanity. We won't
| dwell on that but pass immediately to
the future. To meet the demands of
to-day and the coming year the Red
Cross is about to launch undertakings
vest in scope and holy in purpose. Our
| obligations to our millions of soldiers in
this country and France must be met
Our allies must be cheered and helped
to rebuild devastated countries. To
this end the Red Cross has great
Membership Drive on for December
1923. So great is our faith in the uni
versatility Of the Red Cross spirit that
the aim for December is universal
membership. 1t is hoped that during
this week that the Red Cross will en-
roll every American in the land. We
believe that the American people want
to express their moral and spirital sup
port to the victorious armies in the
form Of the Red Cross.
The National Tuberculosis Assocla-
ton. which has conducted an annual
sale of the Red Cross Christmas Seals
for many years past has determined to
abandon the Christmas Seal Campaign
for this year and to unite in the Red
Cross Christmas Roll Call TO insure
support for this work. the war Council
of the Red Cross has appropriated
So. 500, 900 for tuberculosis work in 1919.
Ten seals will be awarded those joining
the Red Cross Christmas Roll Call.
r. 7. Hallum Of Pckens is county
Chairman for this work. He has d.
vided up the territory of Pickens chap
ter by school districts. Each teacher
in the territory Of the chapter is re-
quested to act as canvassing and en-
rolling members under the directions of
the chairman Of their local Red Cross
