Portland's quota was placed at $10,000, and the state outside or Portland. $5,000, and Josephine county, $100. Inasmuch as the Red Cross Christmas membership drive was on there was no active campaign for funds, and each of four Sunday schools of the city, the Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian and Christian, were given the task ot raising $25 each. This amount was raised by each of the schools or paid out of the treasury, and the total quota of $100 was sent to the headquarters at Portland some days ago.
