CHURCHES WILL
AID RED CROSS
Drive Will Start Here in Ear.
nest Next Monday
Quota is $500

In the churches of the city to-
morrow, an appeal will be made for
the support of "the greatest mother
in the world" the American Red
Cross, whose campaign for funds
started nationally on Armistice Day
and locally will begin Monday morn
ing. With new squirt of enthusiasm
heightened by the growing need of
Red Cross activities in the commu-
nifty. the large group of workers has
determined to put forth every effort
to fill the quota of 1900 member
ships in Perth Amboy.
The local chapter feels that 1t is
absolutely essential that this quota
be met for, because of the industrial
situation. the demands are growing
daily and the funds diminishing. The
drive here will concentrate for just
one week. but, as in former times, it
is expected that as much can be ac-
complished in the seven days as in
the two week period that is allowed
for the activities.
Henry S. Hulse, Jr., chairman of
the 1922 Roll Call. sent out a
message yesterday, urging the sup
port of the entire city. The district
canvassers have their teams all pick
ed, the booth workers are prepared
to be ION the job" the first thing
Monday morning and the plants and
organizations will be covered thor
oughly by competent workers.
Particularly significant is the fact
that the drive opened on Armistice
Day, the day which ended the per-
iod when the Red Cross came to the
fore so prominently. The efforts for
the ex-service man by this organiza-
ton has been invaluable and at the
present time, make up fair por-
ton of the activities.
Memberships are a dollar each.
Fifty cents Of every dollar is retain
ed by the local chapter. This amount
remains right in the community and
is used for such activities as help
ing the disabled, and their families.
cooperation with authorities in
fighting disease. hygiene and nurs-
ing. assisting in the public health,
helping the poor and unfortunate.
and the efforts for the stricken Eu-
ropean people in the way of gar
merits.
The remaining fifty cents is for
warded to the national headquarters
and from here j. goes out in solving
human problems of many kinds. 1t
is hoped that the community will CO.
operate with the local chapter with
in the next week and each do his
share toward the $500 membership.

Out of the cataclysm of the world

ours to make the most OF them. A
world staggering with debt needs its

and the continuing burden of arma-

for real Limitation of armament and
would like war outlawed. In sober

of millions who pay in peace and
die in war wish their statesmen TO
turn the expenditures for destruction
into means of construction. aimed at
a higher state for those who live
and follow after.
1t is not alone that the world can

1t is not to be challenged that

of its cost robs the people of the

Death Due to Apoplcxy

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. IL.
Death as to the result of apoplexy Is
the verdict given following the IN
vestigation into the cause or thc
death of Joseph Karoleoska. the wo-
man who died suddenly two days ago
at her home on Oak Tree road south
Plainfield. The woman died without
medical attention aad the doctors re-
fused to give a certificate of death.
1t was thought that there might have
been a crime in connection with the
case but an investigation by Chief
Mccarthy of the South Plainfield
police shows conclusively that the
woman died as the result of a stroke
of apoplexy brought on by weakness
from a recent illness.
