Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1918-12-05

Cross WOrkroOms, Employees day
(when special tribute will be paid to
the contribution made by the laboring
man), the week ending with a general
~"Clean-up' day, when every person in
the community not yet enrolled will
again be personally solicited for men,
bership.
1t is believed that some time during
the week at least one performance Of
the masque, "The Roll Call" especial
ly written by Mr.. Percy Mackaye, with
stage settings designed by Robert Ed
mond Jones, will be given in every
community. This has but twelve
speaking parts and is arranged espe-
cially for community presentation,
with men, women and children in h
pantomime parts. 1t can be given
either deliberately or very simply, as
conditions warrant. In its dramatic
theme it expresses the emancipation
of the human spirit from tyranny
through the humaniZing agency of the
American Red Cross. Copies Of the
masque, as we'll as directions for cos
tuning and incidental music, can be
SGCuIcu dl Ncu AlOSS I1CuuNudl lClS al
every town and city.
One of the most novel and interest
ing features of the campaign promises
to be the One-day and One-Hour plan
: Of enrolment. This consists Of divid-
, ing the community into units of one
: hundred houses, the idea being to have
/ sufficient workers to canvass these
i homes practically simultaneously, a
! sort of "home stretch" distributing
g the work among many with a mini
! mum of time consumed by each.
e The official uniform worn by Roll
y Call workers will be q cap and arm
b~rassard. These are to be made of
red flannel and a small paper circle ia
s white will carry the Red Cross en-
d blem. This uniform will serve both as
protection against the INSCRIPTIONS and
as an aid to the workers themselves.
IS Corporations, business firms and in
Y dustries will be supplied with a 1907
Service flag.
;s There will be no Christmas sale OF
tuberculosis seals this year. Instead
t. the Red Cross has made a direct ap
J. preparation of $2,5OO,OO0 for this work
IS and ten seals will be awarded eacf
1t person who joins the Roll Call as {
reminder Of the very important worl
r. being done by the National Tubercu
at losis Association.
n Wars may come and war; may &c
al but the Red Cross goes on forever.

t Eel Dreatned more freely. The cleal
est impression that she had, aside fror
her brief panic, was Of his strength. 81
, had run with her as easily as if sh
had been a child.
After that they went out many time
, together. Bill took her hunting, init
ated her into the mysteries Of riff
shooting, and the manipulation of
siX-shooter. He taught her to walk o.
snowshOes, lightly over the surface o
the crusted snow, through which other
wise she f1oundered. A sort of true
arose between them, and the days drift
ed by without untoward incident. Bill
tended to his horses, chopped woot
carried water. She took upon hersel
the care Of the house. And throug
the long evenings, in default of CONVEX
sation, they would sit with a book O.
either side Of the fireplace that roare
defiance to the storm gods without.
And sometimes Hazel would find hel
self wondering why Roaring Bill Wae
staff could not have come into her lf
in a different manner. AS it was-sh
never, never would forgive him.
