THIRD RED CROSS
 ROLL CALL WHY'S
Why-The November Roll Call?

Why-The November Roll Call!
 BECAUSE-one year ago in No- vember war ceased. The Armistice anniversary is fitting time to give the Red Cross vote of confidence. Your one dollar membership will do that and enable the Red Cross to con. tinue it's activities. WHY-the nee essity of these activities now that the war is over?
 BECAUSE-the devastation caused by war is not over. For the next year, at least, in addition to the very definite peace pogram of the organi- zation the Red Cross will be giving attention to 30,000 returned soldiers, sailors and marines confined in Amer ican hospitals, and will expend ap- proximately $500,00O monthly in as- sisting thousands of the families of the boys.
 WHY-A Red Cross peace time program?
 BECAUSE-The Red Cross is bet ter organized and equipped to act in disaster emergencies, to improve pub lie health, sanitation and nursing con- ditions than any other existing organ ization. It also stands ready to sup plement the work of other existing agencies where assistance is needed. Tell your prospective member about Red Coss work at Corpus Christi about Red Cross on the Mexican Bor- der-about aid in the California for est fires-about help in the Influenza epidemic-about aid to vocation sol dier students in universities.
 WHY-continue to send money for relief abroad?
 BECAUSE-there are still minor obligations the Red Cross is pledged to complete in the devastated coan- tries. This foreign relief work is all but concluded and very small per centage of one dollar membership funds secured will be used outside ot the United States. :.
 WHYtwill the Roll Call be held more than a month in advance ot the expiration of 1919 memberships?
 BECAUSE-This is the home com ing Christmas of the soldiers. Many families are planning reunions and Roll Call workers would be difficult to enlist in December.
 BECAUSE-Chri weather conditions in many rural communities make canvassing difficult.
 BECAUSE-Washington has a great task to complete and the peace program to plan and these resources will be derived from 1920 member ships.
 BECAUSE-All memberships for 1920 date from January 1, 1920, to January 1, 1921. Consequently No, vember renewals do not effect the period of membership.

from Salem. Paul Sterling, baritone,
had to come from his fathers ranch
at Wenatehee. He will probably resume
his liberal arts and musical studies in
the near future. "Baldy" Bowers, for
A years first bass on the varsity quar-
tet. assembled from Milton, Oregon,
where he is principal of high school.
The present members of the quartet
have been together for two years, dur
ing which time they have given 60 in
dependent concerts. They have appear
ed on numerous programs throughout
Oregon, Washington and Idaho, and
during the war period sang in various
army camps. The quartet's program
consists of two hours of music and dra
matte readings, a well rounded pro.
gram Of both light and heavy art.

Lord George CholmondeIey's wedding
with his fair American bride was not con-
sidered as brilliant a family alliance as
his brother had made, but perhaps since
her striking display Of her talents a diff
ferent view of the affair viii be taken.
Lord George himself is counted as quite
a fascinating young man.
He has, for instance, the reputation
OF being the handsdmest man in England.
He was a major in the Royal Horse Artil-
lery during the war, commanding battery,
and made decidedly good in the Senussi
campaign, gaining the NJ c. and being ap-
pointed brigade major to General Allenby's
chief of artillery. He covered himself
with glory and is now in Egypt, from
where he will soon be returning to Eng
land to join his wife.
Lady Cholmondeley spent two years In
war work in the war zone In France. She
did commendable work with Lady Angela

and with the Officers Club at Boulogne.
The sacrifices which she and her husband
made during the war did not prevent their
estates getting into such a lamentable
state that Lord Cholmondeley, as wen a.
mis- wife, will be forced to work to earn
enough to live.
But the stage in France does not have
any attraction for me- said Lady ChoE-
mondeley. Some people think the atmos-
phere of the theatre in England and Amer
lea is about as polluted as you could ind.

Baron Rothschild.
1t is no exaggeration to say that the
Cholmondeleys are one Of the most ancient
and famous noble families of England.
The family name is celebrated through
out the world as the most distinguished
example of those old English names which
are pronounced otherwise than they are
spelled.
The present Marquis Of Cholmondeley's
Oldest title, among a number Of others, is
that of Baron Cholmondeley which was
created in 1889, but centuries before that
the family was famous in English history.
The Marquis has beautiful and pic
turesque place, Cholmondeley Castle, near
Malpas, in Cheshire.
The Marquis has been prominent at
court and holds the office of Joint Here
ditary Lord Great Chamberlain of Eng
land" This office differs from that Of the.
Lord Chamberlain, who directs the court
functions, in that it involves no work.
AS the result OF an ancient family dis
pute the Marquises of CholmOndeley

duties of Lord Great Chamberlain in ro-

The divorce proceedings were long and
terrible. The newspapers carried columns
every day of the most sensational evidence
Involving many people in high positions in
London society, and, finally, the decision
was given against Lady Cholmondeley.
But" said Lady Cholmondeley, what
else could you expect from a Scotch court?
To find justice before such a tribunal you'd
have to search with a microscope only to
discover that such a thing never existed
there. They gave the decree against me

possible to construe in two ways. This

sires could possibly compensate for this
cruel, tragic oversight of the author.
Something must be done. Was Lady
Cholmondeley equal to the emergency?
Lady Cholmondeley pondered the situa-
ton. She and her handsome husband had
been engaged and promised important
parts in the piece Her own role had been
cut to a mere nothing to oblige the de-
mand Of the star, Mile. Flory.
There was little or nothing left in Lady
Cholmondeley's part-merely standing
about on the stage; no lines. no "en-
trance" She came in with the others and
went out with the others. She was never
il the centre of the stage.
Lady Cholmondeleys longest time on the
stage was in the scenes which picture and
review the vanity and coquetry Of the
women of the olden times in the placing
of the grain de beaute," or beauty spot
One after another, the women appeared on
the scene with beauty spots on the cheek,
on the neck, on the shoulder, on the back,
On the knee, each special spot displayed
most conspicuously by a very French ar
rangement of openings in the costumes as
the location required.
But wait!
Was there perhaps a cnance here to
do something odd, daring; something diff
ferent from the others In this scene?
