This coming week is to be full of
events for busy people, the various
drives and campaigns occupying each
day. 1t is hoped by those who have
the work in charge that our citizens
will make all subscriptions to the Red
Cross work through the Wauwatosa
channel. so Wauwatosa will get full
credit for all funds really coming from
our midst. Our men engaged in bust
ness in Milwaukee are earnestly urged
to make their pledges to our own
solicitors, otherwise now are our boys
in service to know how loyal a sup
port they are getting from home? A
pledge made in Milwaukee goes in
from that city and Wauwatosa gets
no credit for the amount which really
should belong on our lists. Remember
your home city and be liberal with
your pledges.
