 SHOULD NOT WATT
 "The people who believe in the Red Cross, and l am convinced that a ma iority of Birmingham citizens do believe in it, should not wait to be asked to pay their membership fees any more than they would wait to pay anything that was due,' said II. T. McBroom, secretary. Whether person desires a dollar mem- .bership or q $l00 membership it should be unnecessary for l busy business or professional man or woman to take up valuable time of both persons by calling for the membership dues, yet that is ex- actly what the good people of our city are doing hy failing to call by the office. or the many booths that are in operation each day or by sending their membership fees in by mail to chapter headquarters in the Jefferson County Bank building.'
 Persons joining the Red Cross. whether by individual visitation or at the booths, are requested to take the window service flag anl place it on the door of their office or in window of their homes. The new flags bear the figures "1921'' at the top, with four horizontal lines, which indicates that the person has paid his dues for 1921, and that it was the fourth roll call. If members will make use of these flags in the manner indicated workers will not approach them again for membership. and they will also be aiding the enrolment through advertis- ing.
