SMYRNA RED CROSS NOTES
Roll Call for Members Will Take
Place From Nov. IL to 25 Inclusive

ROh Odll TOT members VIII Take
Place From Nov. IL to 25 Inclusive
The annual meeting of the Delaware
Chapter of the Red Cross will be held
at the Hotel dupont on Friday. Octo-
Der 29th. DR.. Farrand, President of
the American National Red Cross is
to give talk in the afternoon and ali
Red Cross members are privileged to
attend the afternoon meeting and
hear the speakers. Miss ANTHONY and
Mrs. Arts are the delegates from the
Smyrna branch. The Fourth Roll
Call of the Red Cross begins on Nov
11th and continues to Nov .25th. and
the grand objective is 20 secure as
nearly as possible universal member
ship, in order that the great work
which the Red Cross has been doing
at home and abroad, may be con-
tinued. Last year in the United
States the Red Cross aided more than
10000 victims of flood, fire, tornado
or other unavoidable disasters and
that was only one of the many WAYS
IN which the Red Cross brought COM
fort and help to those in need here in
America. In one month of 1920 the
Red Cross helped 423,S adults and
lO1,755 children in stricken Europe,
and this simply gives an idea of the
great work which is being done all
during the year. In Central and East
en Europe there are many, many
thousands of orphans, which the Red
Cross has been helping to care for,
and this work must surely continue.
for should the Red Cross withdraw
from Europe today, there would fol-
low nothing less than a world catas-
trophe. But instead it proposes to go
along definite lines to the limit of its
resources in order to fight disease and
help save the children. Therefore we
must make our Fourth Roll Call show
that the heart of America still beats
for NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of Publicity.

the crowd and the doors and windows
were flung open so those who were
unable to gain admittance could get
a glimpse of the new bishop and
hear his discourse. Automobiles were
parked everywhere on the historic
spot, and those who brought their
midday meal enjoyed it in their cars
or under the big oaks. The scene
resembled and old-fashioned camp
meeting. Bishop Cook was highly
pleased with his reception.
