GINGER UP D. K. H.
FUND DRIVE
People Who Have Made Pledg.
es Urged to Send Them In
Putnam Far Behind Its Quota

Mrs. W. F. Rafferty,, in charge of
the Day Kimball Annex drive, is urg
ing those who have made pledges to
send them in at once. While cards
have been filled out and returned the
money has been slow in coming in
and Putnam is far behind its quota,
1t hardly seems possible that Put
nam, where the hospital is located,
should be behind other towns, but
facts are facts, and being known
should prove an incentive for the cit
liens of this town to ginger up
In order to get the state appropria-
ton of $4,000, like amount must
be raised While a good part of it is
now in hand the final thousands must
be subscribed in order to meet the
states condition.
The Day Kimball Annex fund is for
just what its name implies-an annex

ing demands made upon the institu-
ton. For months the capacity of the
hospital has been taxed almost be-
yond the possible limit 1t has often
been case of doubling up" which
is detriment to the institution and a
handicap in the work to be done
This most important institution
needs financial assistance. The state
legislature listened to its appeal and
condtionally granted the request for
an appropriation of $4,000, the con-
dition, as already stated, being that a
like amount be raised by popular sub
scription. The manufacturers have
been generous in their donations, sub
scribing about half of the amount and
the balance to be raised is to come
from other business interests and in
dividuals. Failure in this important
drive is not even to be thought of The
money must be Forthcoming.

RED CROSS MEMBERSHIP
In Proclamation, Nations Chief
Asks People to Join in Great
Humanitarian Work.

AS president of the United
States and as president of the
American Red Cross, | recon-

Spouse to the Third Red Cross
Roll Call which opens on Novem-
Der End with the observance OF
Red Cross Sunday and appropri-
ately closes on November 18th, the
first anniversary Of the signing
of the armistice.
Twenty million adults joined
the Red Cross during the war,
prompted by a patriotic desire to
render service to their country
and to the cause for which the
United States was engaged in war.
Our patriotism should stand the
test of peace as well as the test of
war, and it is an intelligently pa
triotic program which the Red
Cross proposes, continuance of
service to our soldiers and sail
ors who lock to it for many things
and a transference to the prob
lens of peace at home of the ex-
perience and methods which it ac-
quired during the war.
It is on membership more than
money contributions that the
stress Of the present campaign is
laid, for the Red Cross seeks to
associate the people in welfare
work throughout the land, especi-
ally in those communities where

vision has been made for adequate
public health and social service.
1t is. in the spirit Of democracy
that the people should undertake
their own welfare activities, and
the National Red Cross wisely in
tends to exert upon community
action stimulating and coordi-
mating influence and to place the
energies of the organization be-
hind all sound public health and
welfare agencies.
The American Red Cross does
not purpose indefinite prolonga-
ton of its relief work abroad, a
policy which would lay an unjust
burden upon our own people and
tend to undermine the self-reli-
ance of the people relieved, but
there is a necessary work of com
pletion to be performed before
the American Red Cross can hon
orably withdraw from Europe.
The congress of the United States
has imposed upon the Red Cross
a continuing responsibility abroad
by authorizing the secretary of
war to transfer to the American
Red Cross such surplus army med
zeal supplies and supplementary
and dietary food stuffs now in
Europe as shall not be required
by the army, to be used by the
Red Cross to relieve the distress
which continues in certain coun-
.ries of Europe asa result of the
war.

conclude work which was begun
Turing the war, and to carry out
some comparatively inexpensive
constructive plans for assisting

gelop their own welfare organi-
