"GREATEST MOTHER - i IN FOURTH RED PUBLIC MEN AND WOMEN TO BREAK ALL MEMBERSHIP RECORDS SOUTHERN DIVISION WORKERS ARE ACTIVE Terse Review ef What Red Cross Has pone and Now la Doing en Peace Working Basis Atlanta, Oa., Oct. 00. -Public spirit ed men and women by thousands in the five -states of the Southern Division of the JDnerlcan Red Cross, are lay ing tbeir plana to break all member ship records for the Red Cross when the Fourth Annual Roil Call is, held from November 11 to November 25. From every part of Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee comes the report that com munity after community is organized tor the Roll Call, and that many are only awaiting the word "Go!" to get their quota of members on the very first day. . The Roll Call la expected to be start ed by the renewal of memberships by every chapter worker in the division. There are Ills' chapters organized for the Roll Call, and manymore that are expected to complete their organiza tion before Armistice Day, when the Roil CW1 opens. - The Roll Call Opens . Memberships in the Red Cross are of five different classes, the annual 1; the contributing, $5; the sustain ing, $10: the life, $58; and the pa tron, $100. Any one can join under any one of these 'different classes in ;he Fourth Roll Call. Basis of Quotas Quotas for the Fourth Roll Call have been based not on population, but oa the plana of the different chapters for .the coming year and their actual financial needs. The money, too, will be spent largely right where It is sub scribed. Of the annual memberships of $1, fifty cents is kept by the chapter; of the contributing membership of $5, $4 is kept by the chapter; of the sus taining membership of $10, $8 Is kept by. the Chapter; of 'the life membea) ship of $50, and the patron member ship of. $100, the chapter sends the entire returns to Washington, where the interest is used to carry on the national work of the Red Cross. To those who are not as familiar as others' with the work of the Red Cross since the war, a brief review will give an Idea of what the Red Cross has done in the past two years and what it expects to accomplish (or America in the next tew years to come.'' . I The Man in Uniform. ; It has held, course, as Us first and most sacred duty its obligation to the man in uniform and to the men who fought and served for America In the world war. Red Cross has con tinued to serve the American Expedi tionary Forces In Germany. Red Cross kaa continued to keep up Us service to the 26,000 men at American mili ary posts, at all of which ifmatn alna a personnel to 'help out the boys n difficulties of bonus and back pay nd transportation and the like, to help in ' family problems, to assist them in recreation and entertainment, to be, in abort, the aame "great moth er" to them that the Red Cross was :o the man overseas la 117 and 1918. Besides such sorvlee, Red Cross has ;Ivea Its care and attention to 63, )00 former service men taking treat ment In United States public health hospitals, it lias put practically every man blinded In the world war Into the fled Cross Institute tor the blind at Baltimore, It has kept in touch with 30.0C0 returned" soldiers and their fanii iea to give them help when it was noat needed. For the fiscal year end ng last June SO, It spent $8.(00,000 in nllitdry relief la the United States," ex clusive of money spent by chapters in iltnllar service. That much for Red Cross work with PETTING RECOGNITION. When an ambitious concent sets s .... . out to increase its business, the first essential is to provide goods having superior merit.' But when a concern by patient effort and aggressive en terprise feels that it has gained that -t point, it then has in some way to get j recognition for its superioiity. J tires freely ,thus serves as a proof The only way to get that recogni-' lhat it has been .making a deterinin tion within any reasonable period ised f ffort to offer superior service. & - .

To other citizens the afflicted, the diseased, the disaster- stricken Red "Cross has been the friend, the shield, the helper. Red Cross health work baa. been ono of the prime factors in its peace program; and will continue to be push ed on an even greater and more uni versally beneficial scale. One has but to mention the 15,000 Red Cross nurses who were on duty during the influen za epidemic last year, to Inspire the people to rejoin the Red Cross, only to carry on such splendid work as thla. " , ' 16,000 Health Centers Then there are the health centers the Red Cross has Inaugurated in about 15,000 communities, through which health education has been spread, disease checked and many of the 750,000-annual deaths in the United , States from- remedial causes prevented. More than one thousand Red Cross nurses are working in the rural communities of America, where their services are most in demand. More of this work than ever will be done by the Red Cross next year, and It is hoped to put a public health nurse in every county where the need is great and the- people suf,f icleutly Interested. Much other splendid work has been done and will continue to be done by the Red Cross in teaching people how tfi get well and keep well. There are First Aid classes of the Red Cross, which taught more than a million Americans last year what to do be fore the doctor comes. The toll of deaths in America from accidents each year Is more than lOO.ObO, of whom 7,000 are drowned. The Red Cross has been particularly active In the South in organizing Life Saving corps to stop such lamentable and preventable loss of life as this. Many Southern papers in the past year have carried accounts ot rescues at beachea and lakes where life was saved by Red CroBS first alders. Other classes of this character that have accomplished splendid work are the classes in home hygiene and care ot the sick, and classes' In home dietetics, in ;. which last year more than 90,000 women and girls ot America learned bow to care for the sick people In their homes and what is best for the family to eat In order for the members to keep well and strong. Right On The Jeb , Disaster relief has beon the job of Red Cross " for many years past During the Walt sjreet explosion not so long ago, Red Cross was on the Job with doctors and nurses almost as soon as the police and as a re- Lsult a number of lives were saved out isui. uu jubu wuuuueu yuMO aeyi from being invalids aud cripples for life. -People in the South will recall the numbers ot times when Red Cross has been the only relief and helper In time of flood and fire In eeveral com munities. In the 39 years of Its ex istence Red Cross has given relief fn 250 floods, fires, tornadoes and other disasters and last year alone it gave aid to more than 30,000 unfortunates in 150 different communities. While so much has been done by, Ked Cross in America in the last two years, It has not stopped administer ing wise, economical but unstinted aid to starving peoples in other lands. By fighting typhus, cholera, tuberculosis and other horrible diseases la tever ridden European countries. Red Cross has saved thousands of : lives,-particularly those of women and. children who bad no one else to turn to save the "greatest mother in the, world.' . This is (he sot of work' the Red Cross has been doing. Thla is' the sort of work it will continue to do, u me pcopie oi America wui join "one hundred pw cent" in the forthcoming Roll Cull. - to go direct to the public in some way and tell the story of what it has to offer. A store might otherwise render service of the highest merit for many year, and people who never happen-i ed' to go there might never find It qut.
