RED CROSS MEMBERSHIP.
A Total Enro|Imen in This County, so
Far as Reported, Is PIP.

In the Red Cross Christmas drive
for members, this county shows to-
tai membership, 50 far as +, ported, of
ZIP divided as fellows: Crossvile 175,
Pomona 16, Grassy Cove 22, Pleasant
Hill "a, Llnary 2, Waldensia SO. Crab
Orchard remains to be delrd from yet,
which will doubtless swell the total
by a considerable number.
The total enrolment Of the Red
Cross Ior this county last year was
266. Be ore the year is out the pres
ent enrolment will very lik ely be con-
slderably increased.
While the enrolment in this county
was not so great as was hoped for, re-
ports from National Headquarters show
that the country as whole did not
enroll nearly so heavily as was hoped
for. The many demands that have
been made on the people in numerous
ways are felt to be the main cause Of
the small enrolment for the entire
country.

long as 1t keeps It's skirts free and clear
from petty politics.
And with that understanding" he
continued, i shall be glad e ent6irag so

the hope Of all Of us who are Interested
In the welfare of this organization that
you enter 1t with the same integrity OF

yourselves in the war.
Our country Is founded o. laws and
not on men, and II should be the pur-
pose Of this organization to stand on

principle Of the constitution. | should
deplore II II there were any chance OF

first independent thrust at the heavy
German lines.
Gen. Pershing declared he was high
ly apprecihtive Of the welcome accord
ed him and his command, and speaking
Of the huge parade Of yesterday said
Multiply the division yeu saw on
parade yesterday by 40, and add some
artillery and airplanes, and you have
a notion of what the American army
looked like. Then add the service OF

and you have a notion OF the size oil

forces.
II think II is important that the
American people get that impression"
