s. Army's large airship Roma in Vir-
ginia last February with the loss of 81
officers and men and II Injured was
the first disaster Of Its kind to call for
Red Cross relief in this country. The
suddenness OF the accident tested the
preparedness OF the organization and
Of the Chapter Mt Hampton, Va. but
the response was Immediate and relief
furnished the survivors, also funds for
the expenses Of relatives of the dead,
who came from long distances to claim
their own. N'>
In the years oversea record for aid
rendered by the Red Cross are two
fires in the Philippines. one in Manila,
which destroyed 1000 homes, with a
loss Of $1,50O,000 and 5000 persons
made homeless, the other at Tonic.
which drove 5000 from their dwellings.
In medical relief that was quick and
effective the smallpox epidemic in San
Domingo, which had total Of $4,000
ca0s with 225 deaths in single day,
tested the readiness Of the Red Cross
for action, and the same can be said
of the San Domingo hurricane, which
killed 12 persons and reduced the
homes Of 1872 persons to wreckage. A
flood In San Salvador, with death
toll Of so and 1000 refugees, was also
effectually handled by the local Chap
ter OF the American Red Cross.
Relief Machinery Perfected
The year has seen the further per-
fection OF disaster relief administra-
tive measures in every fold OF Ameri-
cHn Red Cross activity, and that the
work may be carried on to stdll greater
accomplishment the American Red
Cross Is appealing for widespread re-
newal Of membership during the an
nual Roll Call. to be conducted this
year from Armistlce Day (November
11) to, and including, Thanksgiving
Day November 30).

community poultry associations had
a very creditable exhibit of poultry,

new organizations land their first
time to enter birds at the fair. These

A National Calamity
In the ReA Cross disaster relief
records there Will probably remain
for many years one calamity which
touched nearly every state with
sense Of horror and Of loss. This was
the distressing collapse Of the roof
Of tho Knickerbocker Theatre in
washington, D. c., resulting in nine
ty-slx deaths and 1873 persons Injured.
Situated in the center Of the beauti-
ful Northwest residential section, this
motion picture theatre was patronized
by many persons Of prominence both
in the official and civil life Of the Ma.
tlonal Capital, whose family and per-
sonal connections radlated out over
the entire country. The horror was
intensified by n terrific snowstorm
which, though, It retarded, did not
block Red Cross relief.
