RED Cross ROLL CALL
LACKING ENTHUSIASM
From Present indications You May
Have to Solicit Your Own
Membership.

The forth Annual Red Cross Roll
Call is not receiving the attention 10.
cally to which it is entitled, according
to the statement OF Parish Chairman,
John Gamble.
> In 1913 there were 1855 members en-.
rolled in Jefferson Davis Parish, divid
ed among the four branches as fol.
lows: Jennings, 700; Welsh, 500; Lake
Arthur. 200; Elton, S.. At the present
the only report obtainable is from Jen'
nings, where 200 had enrolled up to
Wednesday night.
The mistaken impression seems to
prevail among committees appointed
that owing to financial conditions PEG,
pie will not want to renew their mem
berships in the Red Cross; especially
as applying to the farmers, who are
pressed by conditions. This is far from
being the case generally though, as we
have found by asking q number OF
them the pointed question. They frank
ly admitted that it was not the dollar
for a years support of THE Greatest
Mother in the World" that is worry
ing them, and if they haven't the dol
lar they will borrow 1t in order to re-
new their membership in the Red
Cross. Welsh farmers do not balk at
little things. ~
Up to this time there has been no
solicitors working in the Welsh dist.
riot. Chairman E. c. Willard has been.
too busy to appoint them. but will
do so ia time to complete the Roll Call.
In the mean time receipt books are
being left at a number OF convenient
places among the business houses, who
are authorized to accept memberships
and receipt for same.
Let's keep our membership In the
Red Cross up to the standard set last
year. n
