RED HAIR

query is Of vital personal importance.
He has given the matrimonial ques-

calling for the thoughtful attention of
the philosopher and the sociologist.
If women generally are frowning on

not afford to lose the redhead tenn

Perhaps the correspondent is mis-
taken in his belief that red hair is
the cause Of his lack of success as a
sutton. Certainly, women are not ad-

glory of their own sex. There has
been in the last few years an increase
in the number of Titan locked women

Red Cross Drive


The national annual membership
campaign for the American Red Cross
has been set aside for Nov. 2 to II.
This drive not like former drives 10
not a campaign for funds or money
but for living membership with keen
and lively interest in the work of this
national organization and for this
reason voluntary donations or indis-
criminate giving is not sought for but
simply a membership subscription of
81. 1t is the idea to make membership
in the American Red Cross co-equal
with the adult population of the
United States that residence in this
country may mean membership in this
national humanitarian and welfare So
ciety. 1t is the desire for the word
Americanism to symbolic both things
Give not grudgingly or of necessity
for God loveth cheerful giver."
Surely from the bountifuI plenty
both Of peace, prosperity and material
riches with which God has so richly
blessed this nation, each and all can
afford to donate 81 TO this worthy
cause for the relief OF suffering hu-
manity and for the rehabilitation and
reconstruction OF those for countries
and people so long war-ridden and so
heavily burdened with all its conse-
quences Of death, destruction and dis
ease. Freely ye have received, freely
give" 1t Is not all that each might
give but the mite that each can give
that is asked for, remembering well
the words Of Him who said, ut is more
blessed to give than to receive"
The American Red Cross desires to
express its grateful thanks to those
who are to constitute its COMING
membership.

on the perfection Of connections de-
signed to change crop of black or

there is reason to believe that such
magical compounds are having wide

Proverbially inconsistent as woman
may be, she does not usually go to
the extreme Of disliking natural
beauty in one case and admiring an
unnatural imitation of it in another.
But even if the ornamental sex must
be put down as unreasonable to so eX-
IRENE degree, the redhead can never
