Mr. T. R.'Dut'lianan, Field Di

1he past week perfecting the or
ganization for the fifth roll call

pays, "we are finding tTie people
of the south keenly alive to the
carrying out the present peace
program of the Red Cross, and
extending this work for those
who are .standing for the progress
of Humanity."
During this Roll Call it is de
sired that the Watauga County
Chapter of tlie Red Cross enroll
its maximum membership. The
war is over, but the crippled and
needy soldiers are still with us,
and the Rod Cross is spending
tflO.M'H.OOO annually to treat
Ihem in hospitals and otherwise
t;iko euro of them and those de
Vendent upon them.
The need is indeed great and
we should as pat riotieally stan 1
jor these men now as they stood
for us on the battle held, and as
we stood for them then. If possi
ble the need is greater now t,han
then, for there are now more
crippled, soldiers, those being
cared for now numbering more
than iM.OOO.
Churches, Sunday Schools day
'-.(hoots, merchants, the Airieri
can Legion members, and every
individual in our county, should
enroll and push the work. Every
pastor and Sunday School Su
perintendent can accomplish
much good by being especially
iictiveou Red Cross Sunday, No
vember i;i, appointing persons to
cnioil Red Cross members on
that day.
All money is to be sent to Mr.

is not only to be used in the conn

We foci that our pooplo will
