Bismarck is not taining its usual leadership. The paign here is making fair pro: but capital ‘city folks must show se spede during the remaining four d: of the drive if they do not wish to left at the post by the rural communi ties. Some families are actually sign- ing -up for fewer memberships than they did a year ago. Familles which | could well affort to take a hundred | per cent membership are signing up merely for the head of the family. Twis attitude toward the Red Croxs| cannot easily be explained, and the committees will not be satisfied until) every member of every family which{ can afford an annual membership has been signed up. Display Your Banners. Homes and business houses which have already signed up are requested to display their membership bann On Friday another complete ca of the city will be made, by young ladies this time, and unless there is a banner in the window these young women will take it for granted that the establishment is yet to be solicited. Business houses and private homes will save time for themselves and the can- vassers by displaying their banners. People who were not at home when the canvassers called yesterday or to- day are asked to apply at one of the Red Cross booths maintained in the several city hotels or their member-| ships. Additional memberships can be | procured at any of these booths by citizens who have already responded to the roll call, but who wish to invest for friends or for other members of the family. A Red Cross membership makes an excellent and an inexpensive Christmas: gift. . Ladi Patrotic Bis! On the Job, arck women are play- 7 drive, BEHIND | 1 ‘PROMPT PASSAGE | ;Tose of Pennsylvania.
