"Oh. that's an old gag" said his

Red Cross Invites
All Into Neutral
Army of Service

There are 3,089 counties in the
United States and more than $500
Chapters Of the American Red Cross
The Chapter is the local unit OF the
national organization, formed to carry
out the program, services and policies
of the Red Cross. The industry OF
these $500 local units is voluntary
and steady outpouring Of well-doine
and sympathy which sofrens human
suffering and distress wherever IL
arises. This work is absolutely neu'
trail, for the Red Cross knows no race
no creed, no color.
The strength of the American Red
Cross being in it's Chapters, the or
ganization annually invites the PEG
pie to Join or renew their member
ship during Roll Call which always
begins ON Armistice Day, November IL
ct is this annual enlistment of mil
lions Of Americans under the banner
Of the American Red Cross which
makes possible the continued wsTk OF
this great and democratic legion Of
mercy" says Judge John Barton
Payne. head of the national organiza
ton. Membership in the Red Cross
is privilege within the reach Of
everyone. The need for service grows
more insistent each year. To keel
pace with the demands which come
from every section of our country
we must have the peoples loyal sup
port Our capacity for service in the
year to come will be limited only BY
the extent to which we receive sup
port for our work in the coming Roll
Call"
The invitation of the American Red
Cross is unlimited. The enrolment
period, Armistice Day to Thanksgiv
ing, is evexyone's opportunity to join

10000 IN uFE-SAYr,NG
SERVICE OF RED CROSS
Additional $4,000 Water Safet,
Experts Probable Gain of
Summer Campaign.

A boy watched an expert give
person unconscious from water i'm
mersion. The next day the boy tried
1t on a bathing companion and saved
his life. Such a boy justifies all the
effort and the cost of the Life-Savine
Service, American Red Cross officials
declare. The Red Cross method OF
restoring partly drowned persons is Sc
simple that the continual large sacri
fee Of life must decrease as an in
formed public insists upon general in
struction in prone pressure practice
to induce respiration.
The Red Cross Life-Saving Service
in every part Of the country, summer
and winter, is engaged in teaching
this method as an integral part OF
swimming and ufe-saving. This ser
vice has grown from a single expert
in 1914 to corps Of almost $4,000 &C
tive life-savers. In this tenth year OF
the work It is predicted that fully
$4,000 more experts will be eligible
for membership in the corps. This
large accession in single year lie
confidently expected as the result OF
the campaign among $4,000 troops OF
Boy Scouts under a plan to qualify
at least two life-guards in each troop
During the past year 4,746 men
3,374 wome 1871 boys and girls sue
cessfully passed the rigid tests OF the
Red C7oss-an increase Of 5,331 over
1923. Intensive instruction ~ develop
ing hundreds of qualified examiners
Tor the Red Cross Life-Saving Corps
who supplement the teaching stan
maintained by the national organiza,
ton. The cause of water safety Ia
therefore penetrating to new sections
and eventually will cover all Ameri
can territory.
Recognition of this Red Cross ser
vice for humanity is growing apace
At the request OF the War Department
every military training camp had life
saving instruction last summer. Mu-
inequalities have adopted the Red
Cross course, public and private
schools are offering it to students
business, civic and athletic organiza'
lions are promoting campaigns, and
police departments are making 1t a
part of the conditioning process for
their recruits.
Volunteer life-savers throughout the
country, the American Red Cross re
ports, are eagerly advancing the cause
of water safety, 3S8 volunteers receiv
ing medals for giving from zoo to 3oe
hours service in two or three years
In addition Sc rescue bars to medals
were awarded members OF the RED
Cross Corps who saved one or more
lives during the year.
1t is for the work and extension Of
life-saving that continued support
through memberships is sought, anc
the American Red Cross urges all per
sons to- join or renew membership
during the enrolment campaign open
ing Armistice Day, November IL.
