AT.iiAHBR CRAWAKr KG 400 CHAPTERS ME READY FIR 4TH ROLL CALL Rivalry Ksen Among Southern Towns To 0«t Quota Of Rod CroM Members First. I Atlanta, On. Nov.—More than four hundred chapters'of the American Red Cross and about three hundred chap ' ter branches are organised In (he southern division for the Fourth Bad Cross Roll Call,, November 11-26. "By organization is meant that these 1 chapters and branches have chairmen, committees and the enthusiasm to make the.Fourth Roll CAII a sure suc cess in their communities," said J. [ L. McMUlin, southern division man ager of the Red Cross, today. "We have reports from every one , of them that they are only awaiting ' the date to begin the campaign;' First . the workers themselves will renew their memberships in the Red Cross. Then every old member will be called upon to re-enlist under the Red Cross banner. After that, every effort will be made to get in the territory of each 1 chapter as nearly a one hundred per cent membership in the Red Cross as it is possible to get." "The southern division includes the five states of Georgia, North Carolina,' South Carolina, Tennessee and Flor ida. Last year the division, for its population, made as ftaw a record MM any part of the country in enrollllng Red Cross members. This year it is the eager purpose of every chapter to put the southern division on top again. A friendly but keen rivalry exists among the various chapters to be the first to report that their quotas are secured. A different system has been used this year in assigning quotas to the various chapters. Instead of de termining the quota for the division first and then dividing this out among the various chapters, each chapter carefully ' estimated the amount of money needed to finaufce its needs and Its plans during the coming year. The chspter's quota was then based on this amount, and the quota for the entire division made up from the various chapter quotas. * * Thus, the Roll Call this year is more than ever a local proposition in each community. When local people sub-, scribe to the Red Cross, they are sub scribing to meet local needs, and for every dollar paid for membership in the Red Cross, fifty cents will be kept by the local chapter to finance its plans for next year. The other fifty cents goes to national headquarters, to maintain the national work of the Red Cross. "We challenge every other chapter In the southern division to beat our Roll Call record," wrote one Roll Call qhairman in North Carolina. "We in tend to be the first 'over the top', for we are laying our plans to get our full quota of members early in the morning of November 11." This spirit is typical of the way the vast majority of chapters are awaiting the Fourth Roll Call. It is a rare exception where chapters are not thoroughly organised ana plans worked out to secure the quota of members easily and quickly. Hundreds of newspapers throughfut the southern division will co-operate with the local Red Cross chapters to make the Roll Call a success. Speak ing of the view with which most Amer icans regard the Fourth Roll Call, one Atlanta paper already has called upon Atlantans to Join the Red Cross In the following editorial language: "The Red Cross Roll Calls are not 'drives', not attempts to raise large sums of money tor untried causes, but they are institutions in the nation's life, the one time of tho year when the American people, old and young, are asked to renew their memberships in the organisation tbat is so expres sive of the national spirit and so great s benefit to the as a whole. "The American R>d Cross is differ ent in this respect from the Red Cross of other nations, in most of which it is maintained by large contributions from the wealthy. The American Red Cross is essentially democratic. It was founded by the American people. They maintained H for nearly forty years. In the war, thousands of them found in it the opportunity to serve they so ardently sought. "So, today, the Red Cross belongs to the American people. It gives them the chaace they all want in their hearts to do some good in the world. Singly, their dollars for memberships might amount to little; but matched by millions of other dollars from ev ery part of the country, they become a mighty factor in caring tor our sol diers and sailors; looking after the laterests of the wounded and maimed of the war; safeguarding the discharg ed service man and his family; doing the same thing for thousands of un fortunate civilians; bringing public health nursing and good health to hun dreds of communities; training our boys aad girls in the way they should go; doing many other things that en ter Into "the peace-time program of the Red Cross which, la the two years since ths signing of the armistice, has been demonstrated to all as oae of the finest agencies tor public welfare In the life ot the country.

An interesting experiment In neigh burliness bat been carried on for near ly a year in a part of Toledo which is populated almost exclusively by Polish Immigrants and tbeir descendants; The Polish Business Men's club of the dis trict conceived the Idea that the needy ■Polish families In 'the community should be taken care of In a neighbor ly way, rather than by Tharlty organi zations. The latter were requested not to extend aid in the district, but lo notify the q}ab, so that it might meet all emergencies. This is not done from' the club treasury, however. An inves tigation Is made to determine whether the need is for money, supplies or work, and the other residents of the block, including the tradesmen, are then Informed that their neighbors need their assistance, which, the dub reports, is always forthcoming.
