MAIL SOLDIERS
BOXES AT ONCE
AND AVOID RUSH

Mail your Christmas boxes to
men overseas now" This is the re-
quest OF the Red Cross committee
in charge of Christmas parcels for
men in the expeditionary forces.
Everyone who has received Cou-
pom should call for the carton i'm
mediateIy. Everyone. who has re-
ceived q carton should pack it and
bring it to the Red Cross for mail
ing as soon as possible.
Just eight days remain until Nov.
20. the last date for mailing. Thou
sands of coupons have not yet ar
rived in this country; there will
therefore be a tremendous last min
ute rush and the Red Cross post
office will be greatly overburd-
ened. 1t is consequently necessary
that everyone who has had the OPP
portunity OF preparing a box should
bring it TO the Red Cross at once.
No lonesome labels" have as yet
been received by the local chapter.
1t is possible that the central di-
vision will be unable to grant the
chapter request for a share in pre-
pairing boxes for those overseas
who would not otherwise receive
them. The Chicago chapter quota
of 10000 such boxes has already
been taken care of and contribu-
tons are still pouring in. 1t is GER
tain that were Rock Island granted
the opportunity the response would
be no less splendid.
