THE RED CROSS, APPEAL.

President Wilson's appeal to the poo
pie of the United States to participate
in the annual "rollcall Of the American
Red Cross is something which the peo-
pie should heed. II is not a party APP
peal. 1t is not even tinctured with
bias unless it be IA bias in behalf of a
splendid cause. The services which the
American Red Cross rendered during
the time of peace were along humane
lines; the society endeaVored to allevi-
ate suffering, especially during the
great disasters. Then when the war
broke out and greatly increased OPP
portunities for mercy work were pre-
sented, the American Red Cross rose
splendidly to the occasion. 1t was a
vehicle for the expression of the SYM
pathy and patriotism of the American
people. Throughout the war period the
American Red Cross served most sue
cessfully; and the American people
supported the organization generously
Now that the wars activities are
largely eliminated, the Red Cross re-
turns to the mercy work of peace. in
order to complete the war work and
to carry on the enlarged peace time
work of the organization it is neces-
sary to have a strong support from
the American people of every walk of
life. Let there be a general and a gen
rrous rallying to the support of this
great organization.

Too Much Postage.

A clerk in the employ of a New
York business a while a fair work
err, is yet an individual of pronounced
eccentricity. One day a wire basket
fell off the top Of the clerks desk and
scratched his cheek. Not having any
courtplaster at hand, he slapped on
three two-cent postage stamps and con-
tinued his work.
A few minutes later he had occasion
to take a paper to his employers Of
fee. When he entered, the "old man"
observing the postage stamps on the
clerks cheek, fixed him with an as
tonishing stare. Look here, Tom" he
exclaimed, "You are carrying too much
postage for second class matter -
