The goal of a membership of 10000 is stiu before us. May the passing of the third roll call find it won.
 On behalf of the Norwich Chapter, speak with keen appreciation of the invaluable assistance that has been given us by the local press. Both The Bulletin and The Record have coop erated most generously with us to put before the public Red Cross ideals and Red Cross informa tion. We wei come this opportunity to publicly ex- press our cordial thanks to the mem bers of the Norwich Lodge of Elks, who for seven months gave their club house for our use, and to Judge John M Thayer who provided temporary workroom accommoda tions for several weeks in the early summer There are countless others whom we may not mention. but who none the less have given of themse.,,es or their pos sessions to the serNlce of the Red Cross: our debt to them we gratefully acknowledge.
 Let no one think that. with war ended. there is no future for the Red Cross: that the flame of service which brought comfort to stricken world may now be allowed to die down to srnouldering emhers that only another great disast can re-kindle. Shall not the tremendous latent power that has been developed to repair the physical and social wreekage Of war be turned into new channels to prevent and re- We close this our year of reconstruc- tion with a sense not of completion but of prenarati ton for even, greater service in the days to come. confident that the members of our chapter will respond to the inspiration of the Red Cross peace program with the same wonderful loyalty and enthusiasm
