RED CROSS SEEKS
RENEWAL EVERY
OLD MEMBERSHIP

The Rock Island chapter. Amer
lean Red Cross, will launch its
third roll call to be held as part of
The great national drive for 100000
900 members, early in November
The Red Cross is going after the
renewal of every old membership,
according to announcement by
chapter officials, the membership
Zee as always, will be 81.
The Red Cross is asking renewal
of mem bership because war work
is not over. The local Red Cross
still operates its canteen, still con
ducts its home service work giving
each month information to hun
dreds OF discharged soldiers and
their families, helping the boys
who fought to take their places in
the world from which the war
snatched them This same work is
being done all over the nation; and
il will continue for many months
to come. until the day when every
soIJier has been released from ser
vice, until every wounded man is
out OF the army hospital or receiv-
ing proper care elsewhere. until
every man who left civilian life to
fight is back in the civilian world
in a place as good or better than
that which he left.
Red Cross is ready at any mo-
ment to meet disaster; the Amer
lean Red Cross is about to- launch
comprehensive program for peace
times to prevent the needless waste
OF child and adult life through pre-
ventabIe disease; it's nursing ser
vice conducts classes in home ny
giene, and sends public nurses into
districts where nursing service has
been previously unknown. Local
women are well acquainted with
this last phase of the work. for the
local chapter recently conducted 81
classes in home hygiene with an
enrolment of Gil women.
Every one Of these services
which the Red Cross performs d.
rectly effects every man, woman
and child in Rock Island. Disaster
may easily come in another in
fluenza epidemic and the Red Cross
must be ready this year and every
year as it was last year. Prevent
able disease takes each year men,
women and children from the city.
The classes in nursing and hygiene
have already proved their worth
and the same need for better
knowledge in caring for the sick
and keeping the well in health
exists for the future.
Ii is for all these reasons-for
service to the men who have fought
and for service to all at home, that
The Red Cross again asks the coru-
munity to join its ranks. The Red
Cross is doing big things today and
the work must go on.

Miss oliver Keeps Open House.
Miss Mary Linsey Oliver, who
leaves next week to continue her
work in New York. will hold open
house at her studio on Sunday,
from o'clock in order to meet all
her friends and pupils Ito whom
! this is an invitation), and to intro
duce Eugene woodlands, who. with
Mrs. Woodlands, has arranged to
come here and occupy the oliver
studios and take over Miss divers
classes and other activities. Miss
Oliver had numerous applications
from many parts of the country,
from good musicians, DESTROYS of
taking care of the work, including
Henry Purmort Eames and Mart
Obendorfer of Chicago, both well
known men; but inasmuch as Mr..
Woodlands has just returned from
directing a large entertainment
area at Dion. in France, and is
not therefore occupied in other
places. he will be able to live here
with his wife and two children,
which viii make them of much
greater value to the community
than any visiting artists can be.
Eugene woodlands is well known
for his work as president of the
music section of North Dakota
State Educational association, at
which time he arranged the now
model system of music credits in
the schools there. He directed
the music at HilIsdale college,
Mich, four years, and Mrs. Wood
hams, who is an excellent violin
list, was head of the violin depart
ment there for two years. Mr..
woodlands was also Cean e music
at the state normal school at Val
ley City and conductor of the mu-
nicipal concerts there.
He has conducted several I'M
portant choral societies, including
those at Plainwell, South Haven,
Grand Rapids, HiIlsdale and Val
ley City He has been organist and
choir master of two large Episco-
pal churches in New York, that of
the Church Of the Holy Apostles
and st. Mary's, also of the Calvary
and Western Avenue Methodist
Episcopal church in Chicago. His
work as trainer OF boy choirs has
been noticeable. He concerted |
two years in England, giving his !
own recital at Steinway hall in
London and studied with Shakes !
peare and Charles Sullivan, also /
with Hinshaw of the Metropolitan. |
Possessed of a fine baritone voice, !
he is distinguished as a sOlOist as
well as a teacher of voice. Mrs. !
Woodlands has been conductor of |
the HillsdaIe college orchestra and T!
besides being an excellent violin |
and piano teacher generally. has /,
made a specially of teaching the !
very young, for which she shas de- |
veloped unusual kindergarten /
ideas.
Miss Oliver considers that Mo-
line will be more than fortunate
in having these capable musicians
and is very happy to have been
able to arrange for their coming, |
as her new work in the east makes
it impossible for her to also carry
on her work here.
