day for next weeks drive in which
not less than S150,000 will be raised
| in the district for the Red Cross.
OF every dollar raised in this dis
trict, however, twenty-five cents
stays at home. That means if $780,
600 is raised $50, 900 will stay in the
treasury of the Harrisburg Chapter
for local expenditure, and Harris
burg Chapter makes excellent use
of its money.
Next weeks campaign, incident
ally, is not for members. 1t is for
money. A year ago the city more
than subscribed the quota allotted
it in the national drive for $780,
100000. That it will do so next
week is a certainty.
Miss Burke a Big Card
The fact that it was able to Sc
cure Miss Kathleen Burke for an
appearance here is very pleasing to
local Red Cross workers, inasmuch
as she is in great demand through
out the country. She will arrive here
about noon tomorrow from Lancas-
ter and will be the guest of Mrs.
Marlin z. Olmsted over night. Miss
Burke's story of her experiences in
Antwerp up to the. time the city
surrendered to the Germans. in Bel
gium. on the French and the Italian
fronts is cramfull of interest.
Rabbi Wise Tonight
Rabbi stephen S. Wise will have
an appreciative audience at Chest
nut Street Auditorium tonight.
Rabbi Wise will warn his audience
against a compromise peace, and he
will tell Harrisburg that if Europe
had not stood idly by and witnessed
the ravishment of France in 1871,
when the Germans forced an in
demnity of a billion francs and the
ceding of Alsace-Lorraine, the pres
ent war would not have occurred
And he will say that If the Germans
are decisively beaten in this war the
peace of the world will be assured
for centuries, while if the Huns are
not beaten the inevitable conquer
ing of the entire world is only a
matter of time.
The affair at the auditorium to-
night is an invitation dinner to the
executive organization committee,
which will be the guests of W. T.
Hildrup, chairman of the city cam
paign.
Parade Plans Maturing
That next Saturdays parade will
be feature event is insisted by the
executive committee of the Red
/ Cross. It was originally believed
that perhaps 1000 women would be
in line. 1t is now thought that the
number will not be less than 5000.
The service flag division prom
ises to be a large one. In this sec
ton women relatives of Harrisburg
men in the service will carry their
service flags, while women or girl
employees of the various industries
will also be in line with the service
{ flag of their organizations. Only
one person will be permitted with
each flag, and there will be no dis
tinguishing signs on any flag. Mrs.
/ William Jennings is in charge of the
division.

FOE PREPARES
FOR NEW BLOW
! AT AMERICANS
Germans Sweep Seicheprey
Positions With Deluge
of Bullets

With the American Army in
France, May 12.-The Seicheprey sa-
lient shows signs of again becoming
active. The enemy last night and
this morning deluged the place with
machine gun bullets.
On the same front one of the
American patrols found number OF
German bodies in advanced enemy
trenches, where they had probably
been left during the heavy American
boInhardment on the night of May 4.
American patrols have entered the
enemy lines in the sectors of Lune-
vile and south of the Verdun, but
did not encounter resistance.
Official reports of the German
losses in the Seicheprey battle, ac-
co-ding to prisoner recently cap
tured. give 900 killed. wounded or
missing.
seicheprey 'was the scene of the
bloodiest battle in which American
troops have yet been engaged. Ger
man storm troops attacked in strong
force and captured the village, but
were thrown back to their own lines
by a French counterattack.
In the Luneville sector our patrols
early this morning established the
fact that the hamlet of Ancerviller
has been abandoned by the enemy.
The Germans had not even attempt
ed TO occupy shell holes in the sa-
lient. which recently was torn up by
our artillery.
Quiet prevails to-day on all fronts
in which there are Americans, ac-
cording TO reports. Poor visibility
has prevented aerial activity.
This sector lies along the Rhine
Marne canal. and the American line
is practically on the German from
tier \ very short retirement by the
Germans would carry them within
their own border.

Out of two hundred and fifty five executive in the fourteen division offices of the American Red Cross, one hundred and fifty, or fifty nine percent, are women according to q canvass which has just been made. These figures apply only to those holding important executive posi- ttons in Division offices and do not include chapter officials.
 II was further shown that fifty six percent of these executive are volunteers, serving without remun- era-lon. The Division form of organ 'zation has been in effect only since the appointment of the Red Cross War Council and was found neces- shTy because of the tremendous growth of activities and operation 0r the Red Cross brought about by the war
 The work of millions of Red CrOs members is now directed by Divt sion offices winch are intermediates hetweea National Headquarters and tne several thousand Red Cross chapters scattered throughout the Tinted States and foreign coun- tries. Prior to the establishment Of geographical divisions, the oper- ation of the Red Cross was centraliz- ed at National Headquarters and the only women in the HeadQuart- CTS organization were those in the Nursing Bureau and one who was a member of the Central Committee.
 Since the appointment of the War Council this number has been increased to twelve, and Miss Elizabeth H. Hoyt appointed As sis:ant to the General Manager. There is also a Woman's Advisory Committee of eleven members and Woman's Advisory Committee on Naval Auxiliaries to the War Ooun- cil consisting of fifteen members.
