RED CROSS
ROLL CALL
Held in This Community Nov. 10.
EnEstments to be Received at Banks
and Drug Stores.
BIG ENROLMENT is EXPECTED

Southern Division Headquart.
ers of the American Red Cross
sees a veritable triumph of the
Red Cross cause in Dixie as q
result of reports from every sec
ton of the Division on the results
of early Roll Call activity.
The South, these reports indi.
cate, is keenly alive to the i'm.
portance of the peace time pro.
gram of the organization and the
response to the appeal of The
Greatest Mother is believed ample
assurance that the work now
being attempted will be carried
on throughout the coming year
and possibly extended so that
every community in the Division
will feel and know its benefits.
This has been made possible
solely through the whole hearted
cooperation Of people in every
walk of life throughout the Sec
ton. Big business has recognized
the benefits that accrue toit from
participation in Red Cross activi-
ty and the response has been
generous, and organized labor
has been no less quick to grasp
the opportunity to aid a cause
that is one of the prime factors
in our national life in adding
strength and force to the masses.
In fact, practically every labor
leader in the South has not only
enrolled himself as a Red men,
ber, but has given his enthusias-
tic endorsement of the Red Cross
program.
The doctrine of Red Cros s
service has been preached from
hundreds of evangelical pulpits in
the South and the same time it
has been made the subject of
endorsement from prelate and
priest, in church and in synago-
que.
In fact the cooperation has
been as widespread as the cause
to which it is given. AS result
Division Headquarters officials
predict that despite the uncer-
tainties of the times, the South
will smash all its records for res
ponse to the annual appeal of
this great national organiza-
tion.

Scout Executive Williams
Takes Girl Scouts on Hike

There was an excited bunch of
Girl Scouts awaiting Scout Exec
utive Williams, of State Univer-
sity, last Saturday afternoon,
when Local Director Keyserling
blew her whistle, at one o'clock
sharp.
With Captains Coble and Tenn
pie Lieutenant Byrd and Scouts
Herbert Scott and Colburn Glover
the girls marched double
file, by Patrols, through
the town of Roanoke Rapids and
then on by a new route to Camp
Sam. Along the way we kept our
eyes open and fully realized that
nature had made this trail the
most beautiful one we had ever
been over. The waters of the
canal seemed to be just as happy
as we were, and every phase of
the entire walk made US happier.
We arrived at Camp Sam at
2:3O o'clock, and as Scouts always
do we knew there was something
to do. Executive Williams first
gave a few simple rules relating
to good camp fire making and
each girl scampered away, by
herself, to collect her building
material. Each girl was given
two matches and in very short
while the entire site was covered
with small fires. Each one was
examined, because this was a
part of the second class examina-
ton. At 4:30 O'Clock all of the
small fires were made into one
big real Autumn Camp fire and
we had fun roasting bacon marsh
mallows and eating to our hearts
contSpt. We ate and we eat, we
eat and we ate, we ate till we
could eat no more, but nothing
was wasted. Imagine | we caused
the birds to have merry time
after we left, picking up crumbs
from the different spots around.
We left Camp Sam after Ex-
ecutive Williams rave US a drill
in semaphore signaling, which
was very interesting. On our
journey home we walked slowly,
sang scout songs, andhad our fun
cutting trails, getting lost and fl
naHy finding ourselves saying
"Goodby", to different ones as
tney got to their respective
homes.
