dred and fifty thousand children
died in 1918 between the ages of
one and a half and five years. Halt
the deaths in our community are
unnecessary. This is sadly true
because children and grown-ups do
not know how to keep well. Many
babies die because their mothers do
not know how to care properly fol-
themselves and do not know how
to care properly for their babies.
Children catch diseases that could
be avoided because they and their
parents do not take proper pre-
cautions. Many grown persons are
sick, disabled or go down to an
early grave because they do not
know how to keep well. Later on
the Lee County Chapter of the
American Red Cross hopes to es-
tablish an American Red Cross
Health Center in Mariana.
Thus the saving of babyhood is
only one Of the many great peace
time duties Of the American Red
Cross, which asks you, as an Amer
lean citizen, to help by enlisting
your heart and your dollar and
joining the Fourth Red Cross Roll
Call November IL to 25.
The Red Cross sphere is as broad
as the universe, its activities limit
ed only by the philanthropy of the
public upon which it must depend
for substance. Does it take the
sound of marching feet and the
roll of drums to awaken in US the
patriotic fervor we profess to have
in our hearts? Is there not in us
the desire to do something worth
while for the suffering at all times?
Surely it is so, and the great prob
lem of the day is combating dis
ease. The Red Cross has finished
its roll of temporary relief and
cheer and now is preparing to turn
her excellent systematic machine to
be used for big disasters, such as
floods, fires and epidemics, and not
forgetting the unfortunates of the

It has been learned that Pvt. Smith

ing him to call on the chairman Of
the home service section, who will
be glad to properly file his claim
for him.
Mrs. Morris warns Ex-Soldiers
There was half dozen or more ex-
soldiers called to see me last week
to ask if it was true that the U. S.
government was sending out no
tees to all ex-soldiers to sell their
discharge papers and making the
statement that there were several
men operating in Lee county try
ing to buy up the discharge papers
of them. They said that these men
stated that the U. s. Government
had sent out notices to sell the
discharge papers and Alternating
these statements would then try to
induce the boys to sell them their
discharge papers, offering them
from $1,000 to $500 for them.
Now l want to state for the benefit
of all that the U. S. government
has not sent out such notices, and
whoever these men may be, they are
frauds of the purest type and are
trying to buy these discharge pap
ers for no other reason than to use
them in a scheme to defraud the
government. There is no amount
of money that can buy an honor
able discharge from the U. S. army.
The only way in the world that a
man can come into possession of
an honorable discharge from the U.
S. Army (unless they come into
possession of it as these men are
trying to do-by fraud is to have
earned it by giving honest and faith
| full service in the service of the u.
S. army and any Stacker who tries
to buy the honorable discharge pap
ers from brave men who have suf-
fered and endured many hardships
in defense of our country on the
fields of honor, will be dealt with
severely by the United States Gov.
eminent.
Hold your discharge papers and
| treasure them as precious bits of
gold. AS time rolls on the u. s.
| Government may have many good
! things in store for you, the ex-sol.
der, and in everything you will be
called upon to prove your claim by
the original discharge papers.

RED CROSS REPORT

Remember the Fouth Red Cross
Roll Call November 1925, 1920.
Bennett Freeman has been select
ed and appointed chairman OF the
Fourth Red Cross Roll Call. The
appointment of Mr.. Freeman tt
this position is a particularly for
tunate one for with his knowledge
of Red Cross he is prominently
fitted to present the appeal in such
q way as to bring about the best
results. 1t will be the endeavor OF
Mr.. Freeman and all his co-work-
ers in presenting the reasons for
the Roll Call, to make clear to the
people of Lee county that the Red
Cross is q permanent National in
stitution in which its members band
together in the accomplishment OF
certain things that will bring bet.
ter conditions Of health and living
to the people of Lee county.
The Fourth Red Cross Roll Call
il not a drive nor is it campaign.
It is an annually recurring event,
when the Red Cross will ask its
members to renew their member
ship and it will very earnestly in
vite non-members to become men,
bers by paying the regular men,
bership dues of one dollar per
year.

During the Third Red Cross Roll
Call there was only 1888 members
secured which was a very great DIS
appointment to all who worked SO
faithfully all during the drive for
members.
Comrades, all, in Lee county,
white and colored, let's double our
membership in the Fourth Red Cross
Roll Call and remember in our
Fourth Roll Cali we are entering
upon a rousing campaign and we
present as candidates for member
shin first, Mr.. Good Citizen, who
stands in his community for all
those kindly deeds fostered by the
Red Cross; our next candidate is
Mr.. Good Neighbor, who, in sincere
spirit. loves his fellow man and
IS determined to have things ready
for help in his hour Of need, when
ever that hour may strike; and
then comes Mr.. Good Samaritan,
who unselfishly leaves his path and
crosses over to the assistance of
the stranger in distress, and last
we press forward that kindly royal
spirit who believes that he is, in a
large sense, his brothers keeper.
. All of these candidates are on
our ticket believing that, as OPP
portunity offers, we should work
for all that which is good unto all
men. We are all united and will
join heartily in the great cam
paign November 1925, which stands
for the principle Of keeping open
the gates of Mercy on Mankind.

away, the strike method will receive
the condemnation it deserves.
But it the strike method is not a
success because Of the reasons given
what can be done? How shall we
compel due consideration and suffl-
cient study to the all important topic
Of harmony and good will between the
various classes, grades and sections of
our common public? The answer is
found in the quotation above referred
to; and in the constant reiteration, ad-
vertisement, exploitation of that i'm
mortal truth. Those who read, think
and study over our economic problems
know that this very thing is being done.
Our newspapers, our weeklies, our
monthlies, our various periodicals are
emphasizing more and more the fact
that the well-being and prosperity of
our people depend upon the recogni-
tion Of the splendid truth: "No man
liveth to himself and no man dieth to
himself"
This is just as true Of classes as Of
individuals. We are absolutely COM
PEELED to think Of and plan for the best
interests of other individuals, other
classes and other sections, or we all
must sink back into the hopeless
morass of selfshness, class prejudice,
and narrowminded partisanship.

anything as bourgeois as the City
Of God is indeed an awful descent.
To lead the country in prayer may
have its comfortable side, but it is a
sad come-down from that slaughter
Of us all by the sword Of the "Reds''
with which The Ne1u Republic used
shudderingly to threaten US every so
often if we didn't behave and SUBJ
scribe, and so on. AS for Christi
anity, it has existed for long while,
before, during and after many wars,
and will probably rub along for some
time to come. The Nea0 Republic's 8
sudden discovery Of it will shock our
radicals to the core and give Mr..
Lenine and Mr.. Trotzky very bad
quarter Of an hour. But other cos
mic consequences hardly seem prob
able.
