This year November 11 to November 25 (the day after Thanksgiving) has been decided upon as being fitting and proper for the great organization to conduct its “roll call,” or in other words a few days to call upon the people to give their names and their one dollar to the person in charge, thereby continuing to be or becoming for the first time, one of the persons ‘whose privilege it is to care for his brothers’ physical ills—to that organi- zation that in some mifaculous manner reaches the scene of any great dis- aster before others have realized what has happened. For those days someone will be at headquarters in Crowell's Drug Store to make you a member or to remew your membership. It is interesting to hear the Red Cross workers tell of their experiences. A very old man will walk in, and quietly will he lay his dollar on the table. “I ain't able to move ‘round much, these days,” he will say, “but it's good to know that my dollar helps.” “Just as much as anyone's,” is the invariable reply. Facts and details are not necessary for comment on this wonderful work ‘of the Amercan Red Cross. The poor- est men and women and many chil- dren work with it; the Great Govern- ment of the United States worky with A man was noticed the other day to take from the innermost pocket of his wallet, several documents and cards which he séemed to hold sacred. When he came to the card showing his last year’s membersip in the Red Cross he puft back, on top, as among the things first to be attend to. It is only because of men such a he, because of you and me that the American Red Cross is able to relieve the suffering of countless men, women and children, and one dollar a year is not much to pay for the knowledge that where there is pain, anguish and death, there will be the “Great Mother." { NO FAVORS FOR GERMANY. From Berlin comes the suggestion that the recent' visit of the President of the Richsbank to London, was for the purpose of obtaining a postpone- ment of the next reparation payment, as well as to negotiate credits for Germany. \ | He was told in London, it is said in financial cirtles, that the question - Of reparation would be submitted to ~ the Washington Conference on Limi- . tation of Armament. This seems.to be the first step Ger- many has made to seek a change in the requirements concerning the pay- ment of reparations. And it is in the first step that should be watched, for the second is much easier to take once the first step has been allowed. There should be no modifying of the requirements made which Ger- many was to fulfill. An outsider may not know exactly what matters will come up at the conference, which may be a prolonged one, or which may amqunt to little. The statement regarding repara- ilons should be modified to the extent of saying that as it appears to the outsider, Germany is not safe, and she can pay. She must be made to pay as she has done. The word from London indicates that this is the view there, and that as far as London bankers are concerned, the German asking for leniency there, received no encouragement. There is no question but that the Gormans, even today, consider this wountry as “easy.”” Germany seems to believe that having met the first fsbarations pdyments - ‘proniptly, w;li have faith in her future prom- iscs. She is much like the man who borrows five dollars, we returns it soan, berrows ten, returns it promptly, and then borrows fifty which he has no intention of returning—his credit established. It would be a fatal mistake to grant a postponement in the payments. The man in the street believes this; and as far as may be seen today, he is right. is No matter how much a man may dislike the curl of his hair, a wom- an is envious of it, even though she despises him. y “JEST RUMIN TIN"” (Robert Russell.) them or he sings them— to defeat— What's back o' ‘those ambitions only he and One may greet. fails, the thought will al- ways live, 4 some will come to tell the tale—with help for all to give.

Answer to Saturday’ D N N “THE MASHER.” Our policemen, or any real man or officer, lovek to find the explanation of some mystery that has troubled the police. Any such person is glad to be on hand just in time to catch a man who has entered a house for the purpose of burglary. Any man of character, be he civilian or policeman, is always too glad to aid in the enforcement law, for every man of character kndws that life, without enforce- ment of the laws we have as regard personal action, would know what a terrible sort of thing it would be, There is one class of persons, however, that any man, any officert would be happier in getting hold of than any other. That man is the ‘“masher.” The man—or he who thinks he is a man-— who accosts strange some- times in the daytime, when no one is near, but more often at night, when the “masher” feels that he will be able to escape should any officer, or any m.n who has red blood his veins, will come to her rescue. Twice a man, of women in or men, have costed women in this city lately. The men may merely have been foolish or they may have been dan- gerous. They, or he—for it may have been the same man, will be caught probably. = But for the sake of the women in this city let them remember that no man wHo has any right to the name would hesitate to come on a run to her assistance, and the disgust that would be on his face as he “attended to” the ‘“masher” would be no less impressive than the ac- jail sentence he would by given by the judge before whom he would be brought and who will wish that the law permitted him to pronounce a “life sentence term” on one guilty of this cowardly trick. mREIGNERS WELCOMED As far as one is able to judge thus far the delegations to the Conference on Limitation of Armaments are re- ceiving a most cordial welcome from the American people. And it will be found that this sentiment will pre- vall as long as the Conference last. Its demonstration is quite different from that which one would expect, were one to lay the defeat of the Democratic candidate for the Presi- dency to the matter of the League alone. Never has been believed thoroughly that that one cause brought the downfall of the democra- tic party. The League, in the form it was presented, failed to appeal to the people, but there was and is a distinct appeal to the people in the efforts of nations to get together and “talk things over.” it the recent campaign dwelt constant- Iy on the binding character of the covenant as drawn, and were afraid that we were “Letting ourselves for” more than we realized. Events have proven that we would have been letting ourselves in for far less than the opponents of the League would have us believe. The *welcome accorded these dele- gations, therefore, given by a people unhampéred by anything but these feelings, knowing that any signs of welcome they give must be taken in no way other than as expression of in- dividual spntiment, represent than at first eppears. in more The people want a closer relation- ship with other nations.

COMMUNICATED The Soldier Dead. New Britain, Conn., Oct. 29, 1921. Editor N. B. Herald, City: Dear Siri— Kindly grant me sufficient space to express myself in regards to patriot- 1sm and duty. We have heard con- siderable of late about the lack of pa- triotism and respect shown to. our flag and to our soldier dead. Satur- day afternoon there was laid away in Fairview cemetery a soldier—the first io be buried on the new plot set aside for the veterans of the late war. Ex- cept for a half dozen of his own color and creed, who acted as escortgcolor guard, and firing squad as the occas- 10n required, he lacked military hon- ors, No- band headed his funeral; no caisson -carried his casket; no com- pany of ex-servicemen followed him to the grave. Isn’t this a lack of re- spect to our soldier dead? Is there any reason why this soldier shouldn’t have been granted full niilitary hon- urs? He was an American; served his country and flag overseas; was gassed; came home and after months of suf- fering, paid the supreme sacrifice. I believe that every soldier who served the Stars and Stripes in the late war is entitled to thé highest re- spect and military honor possible re- gardless of who he is; what his color ie; what he believed; how he died; or where he came from. Perhaps I am wrong. Sincerely yours, FULL BLOODED AMERICAN. Rheumatic Skeptics Be fair to yourself, you sufferers from rheumatism—no matter what form.
