RED CROSS ROLL
 CALL GOING BIG

Please send me more official re- ceipts,' was the request received by NJ. s. Whittier, division chairman of the Fourth Annual Roll Call of the American Red Cross, from the Roll Call centers throughout Juneau in the first days campaign for re- newal of memberships which start ed yesterday The great humani- tartan work of the Red Cross, both well known to every citizen today to need any explanation or educa- tional work, and all the citizens of Juneau desire is an opportunity to renew their annual membership, judging from the renewals being re- ceived in person and by mail" said MT. Whittier today.
 The local committee appointed by Captain Whitney and Mrs. Cragg in connection with the Fourth Annual Roll Call, are also working on some special features which will be pres ented during the campaign, and which will be announced later.

 Tt would be peculiarly mis- fortune if the Red Cross, with its magnificent organization and splen did purpose of useful achievements, should lose any measure of it's eff ciency because the special interest and enthusiasm of war time has ceased. Your organization has been built to serve humanity, and hu manity needs it's service in peace, just as ill war. My wishes for all success go to you
 In order to make it convenient for every person to renew their an rual membership, George H. Whit ney and Mrs. Robert Cragg, local chairmcn, have placed Roll Call lists in the following business houses throughout the city where citizens gre reqrcGted to call and pay their dollar-or more if desired-and re- coive their 1921 Red Cross pin:

H0MEY-DEW HONEY BEE LOSS
Material Contains Much indiqestibie
Matter Which Fills intestines Of
Bees in Winter.

The presence OF honey-dew honey
caused heavy mortality among bees
last winter. Francis jaeger. head OF
the division of bee culture mt Univer-
sity Farm, says that honey-dew is
gathered by bees mostly from oak
trees, but at times from naples, and
can be distinguished In the hive by its
black color.
"Honey-dew honey" adds the bee
division CHIEF, contains much indi-
gestible material which fills the intes-
tines of bees during their winter con
inement. causing a condition called
~dysentery. To overcome this II is
necessary that the beakeeper feed his
bees for winter storc at least ten
pounds OF sugar strip or white honey
after the brood rearing season. Bees
will store this wholesome food In the
brood chamber where they will use il
first. When they reach the honey-dew
honey next spring they will use it for
raising brood"

Although the smaller apartment
containing two. three and four rooms
with space-saving beds, is az the
height OF its popularity in the large
cities, there is still a big demand
for a real home by the man with a
family who wants plenty of room for
his children. This type of home is
substantial as well as comfortable and
can be built in a variety of styles.
The home shown here is an excel
lent type of a story-and-a-half model.
1t represents the result Of conscien-
tious work on the part of the con-
tractor. The exterior is particularly
pleasing, built along lines distinctive.
The front porch with side and front
stone steps and heavy brick columns
and gable roof is well constructed and
inviting. The projecting rafters and
small-roof d0rmer set rather far back
under a projecting roof which Is sup
ported by three small braces, are adj
ditional touches that make the home
look very appealing to the man with
a medium-siZed family. 1t would be
hard to find a more convenient house

of concrete, this house is built of
frame, part siding and part shingles.
The shingles have been put on in a
rather unusual way and add consid-
