the people of the District do not
enroll in the Red Cross with the zeal
they have manifested in the past.
Old Sentiment Missing.
To date there has been a strange
lack of the old time pep" in enroll
ing in the Red Cross here. A week
after the roll call opened scarcely
one-seventh of the total sum needed
had been contributed. While there
are whole organizations here which
have 100 per cent enrolment, there
are others where only a sprinkling of
the workers have remembered to
send in their dollar.
AS with many affairs in life, it was
pointed out today, the average per-
son who received an appeal by mail

last week, perhaps simply has laid
the appeal aside, meaning sincerely to
answer 1t.
Such a person, it was said. perhaps
does not realize just the work which
the Red Cross does. or how. in an
emergency, 1t is ready to succor him
or his. Take the surgical dressings,
for instance.
With sixteen or more volunteer
workers turning out 1000 bandages a
week, the city at all times has sup
ply of these dressings. not only to
help the hospitals, but to rush to any
emergency call.
This work really means protection
to the whole city, it was pointed out.
Then there Is the supply corps. Last
year this division supplied 144,455
various comforts to service men In
the hospitals. This work, too. may
have to go, If the people here do not
respond.
Forget to send in a dollar-and a
thousand wounded soldiers at Wal
ter Reed and other hospitals here may
suffer. For If one forgets to send in
his enrolment. it means that many
others are equally forgetful. There
was Il time when nobody forgot.
Canteen Work Vital.
Work OF the canteen. serving meals
to soldiers, sailors and marines on
various occasions, and the activities
of the Junior Red Cross may be
among activities of the local chapter
to suffer If everybody forgets to
enroll.
The local chapter this year has
pinned it's faith to a simple appeal by
mail. but so far the results have not
been very good. to put it mildly. 1t
was stated today that unless the re-
turns pick up this week the chapter
will be forced to go back to the old
method of individual solicitation.

HooSier Motor Club Urges En-
forcement of Light Ordinance,

Urging enforcement OF city traffic
ordinance requiring lights at night on
horse-drawn vehicles and bicycles, the
safety department of the Hoosier Mo-
tor-Club said today:
1.-THE haze and dusk Of the home
going hours blending into the early
nightfall at this time of the year make
the visibility very poor. Dark-colored
wagons, drawn by horses, and riders
Of bicycles, are not easily seen. In
the event of accidents, the driver of
a horse-drawn vehicle or the propeller
Of bicycle, doubtless would have to
assume a considerable element Of
contributory negligence because Of
the violation of the city law requir-
ing lights to be on such vehicles dur
ing the period of from one-half hour
after sunset to one-half hour before
sunrise"
The motor club calls on all drivers
to proceed cautiously at street corners,
especially because pedestrians also
have a low visibility during the
early hours of dusk and eventide. ut
really seems darker between $40 and
$50 than it does later in the night, -
the club asserts.
