PEN WANTS. FOR CHAPTERS
THAT GET MOST Me MBERS

Atlanta, Ga.-Chapters of the Amer
lean Red Cross in the southern division
that make good records in the Third
Red Cross Call, November Pill, will
not go unhonored. It was announced
today at southern division headquar-
ters Of the Red Cross that a pennant
is offered to the chapter in each state
that secures the largest number of
members during the Roll Call In pro-
portion 10 the population Of the county
in which the chapter is located An
other and larger pennant will be given
to the chapter that secures the most
members In proportion to its popula-
ton competing against all chapters in
the division, which includes the states
OF North and South Carolina, Georgia
Tennessee and Florida. There are 539
chapters in the entire division, and to
win the division pennant will be quite
a job as well as quite an honor, as
many of the chapters already have be
gun an active campaign for members
The pennants, which in themselves
win be a fitting ornament to the wall
Of any chapter house. will be awarded
as soon as final results are tabulated
at the close Of the campaign.

S1.O1 SPENT FOR
EVERY 81 GIVEN
Red CROSS HAD REMARKABLE
RECORD or ECONOMY IN
WAR.
Money Given In Third Roll Call To
Go Mainly for America and
Americans.

Atlanta, Ga.-There are two facts
about the Third Red Gross Roll Call
which campaign leaders In the south
are emphasidng-one the fact that the
Red Cross has proved its ability and
trustworthiness to handle funds In q
business-like way, and the other, the
fact that the money received in the
Third Roll Call viii be expended al.
most wholly in America for the benefit
of the American people.
When anybody asks whether money
given to the Red Cross viii be fritz
tered or squandered campaign speak
ers turn to It's war record and point to
the remarkable fact that for every dol
lar given BY the American people, s1.O1
went to the actual purpose for which
the money was intended. In other
words. each dollar earned two cents
interest. One cent of that two cents
provided for expenses of administra-
ton, and the dollar itself and a cent
besides went to actual relief work.
II the Red Cross could do that In
the war, when no organizations and no
nations were any too careful OF ecouo-
mic In the way they spent money, Red
Cross workers declare, Il is certainly
to be believed that the Red Gross win
do as well. at the least. in peace times,
and that money given IN the Third
Roll Call VII go. not for expenses. nus

EARLY LAMBS CAN
RESIST WORM ATTACKS

Lambs dropped in March or April
VIII develop more resistance TO early
summer worms than those that are
born In May or JUNO. As result Ten
nessee sheep growers are urged to
breed their ewes during October or
November.
The principal objection to the early
lamb Is the fact that it must have care
full protection from the cold weather
or Ii will be numbered greatly IN its
growth, or be frozen This objection
Ia not hardly so prominent in this
state, however, as 1t Is in many ones
OF the North Shelters in Tennessee
can be provided with a smaller cost
than that which will be levied IL the
lambs appear later than March or
April. Consequently, sheep experts
may breed early.
Worms give great deal Of trouble
turnout the South. The further South,
the greater the trouble.
Sheep men also urge that ewes be
fed well during the breeding season, as
1t increases the opportunity OF them
dropping twins.

Arter months q preparation BIZ 1000

After months Of preparation By 1000
Red Cross Chapters, with their 1900
branches and $4,000 auxiliaries, al
over the country, the Third Red Cross
Roll Call for 100000 members, now
is getting under way with a tremen.
dous sweep in every part OF the nation.
From RED Cross Sunday" November
2, through "Armistice Day" November
II, the great drive will continue.
Not only Red Cross chapters and
Red Gross workers are mobolized to
insure the success Of the Roll Call in
the Southern Division, which includes
the state Of North and South Carolina,
Tennessee, Georgia and Florida, but
the organized women Of these states
have pledged their aid, and the re-
turned soldiers, represented by the
American Legion have pledged their
support as well to man through
their national officers. Ministers
throughout this division and through
out the United States have taken up
the cause.
The need Of the Roll Cali and for
those who will answer "Here!" can be
set forth tersely. The Red Cross
fights for American humanity - 1t
fights against ignorance, sickness, suf.
fering and misery in every form. For
the Red Cross, the war is not over.
And did you think the war was over?
Then ask yourself few questions. Ask
yourself what Is to be done about
The $50, 900 disabled fighting menf
The 100000 American boys who were
unfit for service?
The one American baby out of seven
that dies IN its first year?
The 100000 people who die annually
Of tuberculosis?
The 100000 who would die in
another influenza epidemic ike the
last?
The 100000 children under 5 who die
annually of preventable disease?
The thousands Of children forced out
Of school by physical defects?
The accidents that kill 100000 and
disable 100000 yearly?
The one adult in seven known to
be in need Of medical attention?
The 1000 people who drown every
year in American waters?
These are the things that made the
Third Roll Call absolutely necessary
