Red Cross Roll Call.

The third Red Cross roll call will be
held November to IL. This drive is
necessary for three reasons.
In the first place the Red Cross must
complete it's obligations to foreign
countries.
In the second place it must complete
it's obligations to men still in service.
Thousands OF men are still in hospitals,
abroad in the army OF occupation, in
the camps awaiting discharge and in
service on iIe-border. The Red Cross
will continue to care for these men I'M
til the last man is home.
Third, the Red Cross must answer
the call OF the American people. The
toll OF the influenza epidemic, the
health conditions revealed by the draft,
the recent and alarming statistics in
regard TO infant mortality, and the
growing realization that public welfare
depends on public health, have aroused
the American people to the urgent need
OF health knowledge. They have real
lied the value OF home service, for it's
activities have. reached communities
where no other social agency is at work.
They have learned to appreciate that
the future of America depends on the
training for citizenship OF the coming
generations.
America turns to the Red Cross for
help in solving these community
problems.

The Savings Organization of the

hand grenades converted into saw

has cancelled his arrangement to
furnish grenades to the Treasury

The War Department gave its
approval of the grenade distribu.

Birds With Rraina.

Naturalists have arrived at the con-
clusion that the brain IN birds is large
in proportion to the body. If it is ad-
mitted that intelligence depends upon
the weight of brain, then the goldf1nch
must be placed at the top of the list
Of birds; the brain weighs one-four-

Rhine boundary is not changed, but
the forts will be dismantled and France
will be given guarantees against at
tack which she has characterized as
rost acceptable
Waterways Internatianalized
The waterways provisions include
internationalization Of the Rhine, Elbc
and Oder rivers. The Kiel canal will
be left in Germany's possession, but
viii be open to passage of all ships in
peace time and its forts will be dis.
mantled.
As outlined to the United Press yes
terday, the reparations section Of the
treaty probably will be based on a pro-
visiona minimum indemnity of $25,.
600, 100000. The permanent reparations
committee will be expected TO get as
much more as Germany s financial and
economic condition permits, after the
initial installment of $j,00O,000,0 900,
which will be paid within two years.
The general belief is that France will
get about 55 per cent of the total
amount of indemnities.
While the responsibilities committee
has agreed on Indictment and trial of
minor enemy offieials in the countries
in which their crimes were committed,
the question Of whetheF the former
kaiser and his chief aecomplices shall
be corporally punished probably will
be determined at the plenary session
next week, owing to the fact the com
mittee failed to agree on this one
point.

and expressed entire satisfaction With
the progress Of the peace work He is
understood TO have informed him that
