HELP IN THE RED CROSS CHRIST
MAS ROLL CALL.

Mr.. A. B. Hancock, of Paris, re-
ceived the following letter from Mr..
Edward w. Hines, Chairman of the
Kentucky Council of Defense, in re-
gard to the Red Cross membership
drive, which will begin on December
|16 and continue through the week
to December %:
"You are requested to lend the
weight of your organization and as
sist in all ways in the Red Cross
Membership Drive, which will take
place December 1928, inclusive. L
"a HEART AND A DOLLAR is all
that is needed. Those who have the
the first will find the latter. Those
who have the latter must find the
first. This is not campaign for
money, but for membership. The
need for our support of all Americans
in uniform was never greater than
now. The boys have done their
work. Many of them lie wounded in
the hospitals across the sea. Many
of them are returning to this country
wounded and sick and must be nur-
tured and cared for. Our Allies have
borne the brunt of the battles for
freedom. Many of them are sick and
starving. World liberty has placed
a new and sacred obligation upon the
American people. This obligation can
be met in part through membership
in the Red Cross. We also owe an OBJ
legation to our people at home who
have suffered and are still suffering
so greatly from the influenza cpl
demic, and this obligation can also
be met in part through membership
in the Red Cross, as that organlxa-
ton ministers not only to our soldiers
and to the sick and starving in the
countries of our allies, but to the sdf-
fering at home.
"The cooperation of your Council
of Defense with the manager of the
Red Cross Campaign in your county
will help bring these obligations to
the attention of every resident.
"KY. COUNCIL OF DEFENSE,
Edward w. Hines, Chairman,
"Pendleton Beckley, Executive
Secretary"

AN IRONTON HEATER is JUST
THE TRICK.

Why worry about what to buy for
a Christmas gift. You need a gas
heater any way. Buy one for moth
er's Christmas gift. The whole fam
lily will enjoy and get the benefit of
it, too. When it comes to heaters,
an Ironton settles the argument. We
have a large stock of all sizes.

The ball will be one of the most bril-
liant affairs OF the season, and In
cluded among the patronesses will be
the leading society women of Wash
ington."
On Christmas Eve there are no
less than three important dances, one
at the British. embassy. with the
Charge d'Affaires of Great Britain
and Mrs Cilville Barclay as hosts,
and another which Mr.. and Mrs. John
A Baker are giving at Grasslands
for their granddaughter, Elizabeth
Baker Kemp. A good many of the
the debutantes are going to take in
both of these, and the "flapper" will
have her innings at the dance which
Mr.. and Mrs. Jerome Bonapafte are
giving for Mrs. Bonaparte's school
girl daughters, Blanche and Barbara
StrebeIgh.
The rest of the week promises to
| be equally gay. On Monday after
noon Julia Zaldivsr, daughter OF the
minister of Salvador. is to be pre-
scented, and therenl be a dance for
her in the evening. Mrs. George Bar
nett IL to have her first at-home at
the Marine Barracks since her return
from France. And in the evening
the John Shelton Williams are Civ
ing a big dinner at the Willard fo=
the McAdoos, and there are numerous
other less formal dinners, notably the
one which Mr.. and Mrs. RoZier Du-
lany are giving for Anne Dulany.
On Thursday two debutantes, Eliza
beth Hamlin Young and Teresa
James, will have their coming-out
parties. and the two buds also will
be presented on Saturday Gertrude
Virginia Drain. daughter of Brig.
Gen. and Mrs. James A. Drain, will

an informal dance, which her mother

rotary of State and Mrs. Breclxin-
ridge Long, also will give a dance on
Saturday evening.
The members of the Cabinet and
their families are almost without ex-
ception planning to spend Christmas
rather quietly, but several of them
will slip away to New York on
Christmas night to join the party
which the Secretary Of the Navy and
Mrs Daniels will entertain aboard
the Mayfiower for the great naval re-
view next day.

fewer and fewer from year to year

cancelled the historic White House
