iioney needea tu tmunce its needs &na J
ts plans during the coming year. The
haptur's quota wait then based on this -
amount, and the quota for the entire i
division made up from the various '
chapter quotas.
Thus, the Roll Call this year is more
liun 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
ihe Red CrosB, fifty cents will be kept
by the local chapter to finance Its
plans for neit year. The other fifty j
cents goes to national headquarters,
to maintain the national work ot the I
Red Cross.
We challenge every other chapter
In the southern division to beat our
Roll Cull record," wrote one Roll Call
hulrman in North Carolina. "We in
tend to be the first 'over the top.
for we are laying our plaua 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
awulllng the Fourth Roll Cull. It is
a rare eiceptton where chapters are
not thoroughly organised and plans
worked out to secure the quota of
members easily and quickly.
Hundreds of newspapers throughout
he southern division will co-operate
with the local Red Cross chapters to
uke the Roll Call a success. Speak-
