The Red Cross people say tlio number will bo surprisingly large. Here is (.he Idea as it will prob ably work cut: Oil every I lock In Har risburg there will ho a house where lied Oro s neml crshtps will he -v-wived. The folks living in that block na t. • t. etr dollars for •nom'xi ship to tlia. house, receive their hut tons, receipt stubs, and window pla cards. Volunteer Workers There will be volunteer workers on each block who will doubtless call attention of their neighbors that not every window in the block con tains the Red Cross sign. That will help a lot. All this volunteer work will be done in the week beginning De cember 9. The nation-wide Red Cross cam paign begins December 16. Rut it is the intention of Airs. Lyman D. Gilbert, chairman of the local Chapter, and William Jennings, chairman of the Christmas rollcall,< to line up and sign up as many "volunteers" as possible. Volunteers Wanted Within a few days the 1919 hut tons will be visible on hundreds of | coat lapels; and the placards will be found in many windows, as the vol unteers get busy. When the volunteer "push" is over, if the entire population Fas not yet "come through" with its hearts and dollars, then the workers will get busy. They will -over the city and district thoroughly, but their work will be greatly simpli fied because of the volunteer mem berships. Plenty of Work There is still need for the Red Cross. The war is over, of course, but for the next two or three years the Red Cross will find a-plenty to do. That is evidenced by the fact that it is now sending many tieW workers to France, Italy and other European countries. Even at home there is much wonk for 't to do. Cost Only $1 During the recent influenza epi demic the Red Cross In Harrisburg and vicinity rendered invaluable aid. It has been of great assistance through its civilian relief branch. Its canteen service for soldiers on their way to tidewater, has been re marked upon by the soldiers them selves as the most perfect they' en countered on their long journeys. Red Cross memberships are only sl. Everything else has gone up in price, but Red Cross memberships still remain the same. Everybody Must Help The coming eampatgn for money, but memberships. It is the hope of Airs. Lyman D. Gilbert that when the campaign is over the iarge majority of the people resident m the Chapter district will have been enrolled as Red Cross members. "The Harrisburg dist'-'ot quota is the population of the distric*," sa d Chairman William Jennings this mcrning. "In every campaign staged in the district during the last 20 months we have su'pass* d what was expected of ii.t. In this campaign we cannot surpass ex pectations, because tve cannot get more memberships than there ore people—but we can at least live up to expectations."

This was in the afternoon and the 'Boche' ob servers could see us; we had scarce ly started with a wounded man when old Fritz shot three high explosives straight at us. One struck about ten feet away. We could not drop the stretcher with our wounded com rade, so we just kept plugging along and took our chance: but luck was with us and we kept at it all after noon. "We all thought we were gassed, but it was only gas from burnt pow der that made our eyes and throat burn and kept us continually sneez ing. Talk about your luck. The night we got relieved by the second battalion of our regiment we were up in the town on the 1 Veslie river watching for orders from our lieu tenant, who has since been killed when one of Jerry's shells made a direct hit on the building alongside which we were sitting, killing three and wounding seven of our party.

I asked him if he could smoke a cigaret and he said he could. He asked me what kind I had and I showed him a pack of Camels. You should have seen him trying to smoke that C'amel. He was breathing through his lungs, ' but he had a smile on his face when the doctor dressed his wounds and believe me that's the kind of a guy that will get through this war.
