EXPECT TO FILL QUOTA

The nationwide drive of the
American Red Cross today started
in full swing with the local chapter
under the direction of Mrs. Charles
Seguine, roll call chairman, when
booths were stationed at the various
banks soliciting membership to the
organization. 1t is expected that
within few days permission viii
be granted the committee to station
booths at the various theatres
The local plants and factories
have been visited and men appoint
ed at those plants to enroll the en-
ployes. The women will canvass
from house to house, having been
assigned different districts, and in
every plant where the employees
have been enrolled to their full
membership. and in every home
where the entire family has been
enrolled a placard signifying 100
per cent will be placed in a conspic-
uous place.
The local chapter in former years
has always gone ssever the top" and
with the earnest efforts of the work.
ers and the consideration for what
the Red Cross has done and is doing
by every person in the city. there is
no doubt that this will happen again
this year.
From now until Thanksgiving
Day everyone is asked to give their
support and answer to the call of
the Greatest Mother in the World"
and to pledge their allegiance once
more to the greatest army of mercy
in the history of humanity.
The disaster in the Near East is
only one of the many grim tragedies
which the Red Cross is meeting.
Others are taking place every day
of the year, and any day may be just
around the corner from your own
homes.
The Red Cross. as the great vol
Enteer emergency army, never halts:
never sleeps: never takes a yaca-
ton. Its work of mercy goes on
night and day in every village, town
and city of the country. 1t is an
organization, always for service, and
always at the call of humanity.
With the aid of the people who
realize this great work that the
Red Cross has been doing, the re-
sponse to this Roll Call will be
unanimous.

THAT the safety of pedestrians and
citizens of Raritan Township is be-
coming a menace from day to day is
evidenced again, when elght-year-old
Margaret Ursanwi, a pupil of the
Clara Barton school, was run over in
front of the school house, while
waiting to board a street car"
was the statement made this morn
ing by Mrs. Arnold Nonnenberg,
member of the Parents Teachers
Association of the Clara Barton
school, to a reporter of the Perth
Amboy Evening News.
The pleas of the Parent-TeacherS
Association of the Clara Barton
school to the township authorities
for protection of the school children
has failed, in spite of the many eff
forts made by that body, as well as
the principal of the school. Miss ID.
L. Thornail. Only a few days ago
Miss Thorrall sought in vain to
secure a patrol in front of the school
building to avoid mum ~-ous aecl-
dents, that have occurred in the past
within the boundary.
The township authorities, nor its
committeeman have seen fit, so far,
to give its taxpayers the deserved
protection of the law. Motorists do
not have to obey the traffic laws,
