Editor Post: We understand it is currently re ported that the baard of health would have put on the quarantine this week but for the Red Cross bazaar which wr advertised for Dec. 10 to 14. The ladies of the Red Cross who have worked so faithfully to make the bazaar a success would have been trreatly disappointed if it could not have been held, but they want it dis tinctly understood that the Red Cross did not ask the board of health not to put on the quarantine. They have been and are willing even now to dis continue the bazaar if the board thinks it wise to do so, money is no consideration. The hig'h aim and purpose of the Red Cross is to relieve suffering and co-operate with every effort to pre vent disaster of any kind and it would not do or ask anything that would in the least jeopardize the health of the community. W. F. SNIDER, Chairmin. Heretofore tf-e Red Cross Christ h mas seals have been sold for the ben efit of the tubercu'osis society used in fighting the great plague. This year there will be no sale of seals, but the American Red Cross has set aside 2.5O0 000 to he used by the tubercu lar society in fighting tuberculosis and tWe spal will be given to those who join the Red Cross during the period of the Roll Call December 16-11. The 1P19 button and seals will be given to p'1 new and renewing members answering the Roll Call. This l'ttle seal adds much to the Oiristiras let ter or package.

There is no better way of expressing patriotism and desire for service that everyone feels t'lan through the Red Cross membership. Such membership is every merican citizen's right and duty.
