 From Chloride 21 annual; Oatman 120; Kingman, 136 annual and l con tlibuting. No reports were received from Blackberry, Valentine and the Sandy.
 Total of 137 in Kingman. We really should have 500. Lets go".
 "Let us all pull hard for strong finish," said Colonel George Filmer, Manager of the Pacific Division yes terday in a letter to chapter chair1nen and workers in the Sixth Roll Call. His letter carried the information that early reports from all sections of the Pacific Division indicate successful membership campaign again this year.
 Judge John Barton Payne, Nation al Chairman of the American Red Cross, who voices the sentiment ex- pressed by Herbert Hoover, "Let's All Get Behind the American Red Cross and Give it Ten Million Mem bers," made the following statement at National Headquarters to Roll Call workers everywhere.
 "The Red Cross is a mighty army of red-blooded American men and women banded together to wage in cessant battle against disease, disas- ter and suffering.
 "You are the recruiting officers of this army. As such it is both your duty and privilege to give to, every American the opportunity to con secrate himself anew to service under the banner of the Red Cross. "We are now engaged in the stu pendous task of relieving the misery of, more than half million men, women and children who have been driven out of Asia Minor and East ern Thrace by the Greco-Turkish war. When this great international disas- ter came, the eyes of the American people turned as with one accord to the American Red Cross as the agen- ,cy through which they would send succor to the suffering. ..
 "There was never a moments doubt as to what organization would be call ed upon to render aid. The Red Cross is proud that it could and did answer Ready when the emergency call came. ,#. r.t' "~J I
 Prom now until Thanksgiving Day you are to call the roll among your neighbors and friends, and they, too, will be proud to answer Ready. By their affirmative answer to the Roll Call they will be giving their sup port to the Greatest Mother in the World; they will be pledging their, allegiance once more to the greatest army of mercy in the history of hum- anity. a.
 "The Red Cross, as the great vol unteer emergency army never halts, never sleeps, never takes vacation. Its work of mercy goes on night and day in every village, town and city of the country. It is your organization, always ready for service, and always at the call of humanity.
 "With your aid Jet us make the re- sponse to this Roll Call unanimous"

BABY BALLOTERS

A child eighteen months of age cast its vote at the recent British elections. The child was heir to an estate and therefore came under the property qualification. Apparently the age of reason has not yet reached the Eng fish electorate. It is possible that this kid is one of the precocious little ones, like Charles Charlesworth, who lived from babyhood to old age in four years. Grew whiskers, hair greyed, and he was in extreme old age when death came.
