Red Cross Chapters are making ar- | rangements for the production of “The Roll Call,” the masque tHat is to be one of tha principal features of the Red Cross Christmas roll call during the week beginning December 16. Percy Mackaye has written the masque and Robert Edmund Jones, { who has designed the costumes and stenic efforts for a number of the Mackaye pageants, has planned effec- tive but easily contrived costumes for | the production. Everything has been arranged on the simplest scale so that the chapters can stage the masque | without much effort or expense. Through chapter productions every neighborhood in the country will have ! an opportunity to see it. The services of many men, women and children will be enlisted in each chapter to stage the masque, although there are but a dozen chief speaking parts. In respect to ensembles, each chapter will arrange its production on the | scale desired. The kind of music to accompany the masque will be optional with each chapter, but many of the chapters have signified their intention of aug- menting the community chorus re- quired with orchestra or band music. “The Roll Call” is the story of tha emancipation of humanity from de- grading forces by (hc far-reaching of the Red Cross.
