Red Cross to
Start Drive for
Membership
Relief Work of Organization Raises
to Proportions of the War
Time Activities.
The American Reel Cros3 in this
city as well as every chapter in the
United States is about to start a
membership campaign that will carry
the greatest significance of any sinca
the great world war.
Relief work of the Red Cross in
the last few years has mounted as
the country was swept into the :rreat
depression and this winter points to
the greatest tests of the Red Cross
and all relief agencies to care for
the needy, the unemployed and pre
serve the morale of the people so
sorely stricken as the American na
tion has been since 1929.
The membership fees that are paid
into the Red Cross go toward aiding
the work, while only a dollar for
the membership a great response will
bring several million to aid the work
of relief.
The local chapter will start th3
drive soon and all who can should
press into the army cf membership
and aid in every way in making for
the care of the needy from the biting
blasts of winter end the privations
that lie ahsad of the nation in the
coming months.

TEE MAPLE
A maple s?ed was wafted in
A tpot o earth and toil;
Where solar light and heat had
been ;
Which started a seedling to
grow and toil.
The world passed by and saw
it raise;
As its branches were tossed by
the breeze,
Their thoughts were concerned
and in a haze.
As to whether the fledgling
might freeze.
The maple grew and flourished
fine,
Its foliage most tender and
green.
Tradition may scorn the trees on
the Rhyne,
For the maple whenever its
seen.
Only a maple with rich go:-
geous leaves.
Since autumn ha3 changed its
frock.
In the spring of the year it
surely retrieves
Itself; As its shade protects
the flock.
The maple stretched forth its
tiny twigs
Until it became a great tree
The birds of the air build nests
like wigs,
And sought shelter that seemed
perfectly free.
Man seeks a refuge near his
Eide,
To the maple he may repair.
And in its foliage hide.
From the storms that rage in
air. "T"
