Lincoln, Nov. 3.-(Special.) -

following proclamation covering the
subject:
II desire to call to the attention

third Red Cross roll call, which is
being conducted during the period
from November to II. inclusive.
During this period it is desired that
all Of the people shall either re-
new their annual membership or be-
come members at the nominal rate
of 81 per year.
ITO attempt to add anything to
what is already known of the pur-
poses and accomplishments of the
Red Cross would be difficult task,
indeed. 1t is fittingly referred to as
"the Greatest Mother in the World
and all those who make contribu-
tions to it may be assured that the
returns to humanity. through this
organization, will be worth many
fold the cost. No one can tell
from what quarter or at what time
the services of the Red Cross may
be needed. Nor can anyone antic;.
pate ,the time when this organiza-
ton may stand at his own door,
prepared to render the most benefi-
cent service in a time of greatest
need.
II trust, therefore, that the peo-
pie of the state will respond most
generously to this roll call, even to
the extent that when the campaign
shall have been completed, 100
per cent membership will have been
obtained in the state"
