The purpose of the Red Cross Christ mas Roll Call, expressed In the fewest possible words, is to see that every man and woman In every city and com munlty throughout tho United States, and wherever Americans may be, has the opportunity to join the Red Cross or to renew his or her membership. Nothing short of universal membership is the goal. A 1919 Red Cross mem bership button is to he given to each person enrolling, aa well as a Red Cross Service King, with a cross for euch member of the family enrolled. Every home In America and every busi ness office should have on display a Service Flag the week before Christ mas, when tho Roll Call will take place. PORTLAND NOW CLAIMS POPULATION OF 316,760 Portland, Dec. 13. Portland's population is now 316,750 -and has increased 46,238 within a year, ac cording to estimates based on the school census recently compiled by School Clerk Thomas. The total number of children in the Portland schools district between 4 and 2C years of age, according to the cen sus, taken last month, Is 58,713. Of this number 57,591 reside within the city and 1155 are non-residents. Last year the number of children In the district waa 50,118, of which num bcr 49,184 resided in the city and 943 wers non-residents. .

It was not until their occupation by the Romans that the word Britannia came Into use as a name for the Brit ish Isles. The name Great Britain was applied to England. Wales and Scotland on the accession of James I In 1603, when the king of Scotland succeeded Queen Elizabeth, . and tho crowns became united. The expression had been used for some time before that event to distinguish England, Wales and Scotland from Little Bri tain Britannia Minor which was the t rench province of Brstagno or Brit tany, across tho channel from Eng land. On January 1. 1801, when the leg islative union of Great Britain and Ire land took place, the name adopted waa the "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland." It Is a mistake to refer to the United Kingdom as England. England Is a part of the United Kingdom, as Saskatchewan la a part af the Dominion of Canada. C. A.

"Many persons have the mistaken Idea that color blindness causes a con siderable number of the railroad accl- iente," said a veteran of the line re cently. "During the early part of my life, when I was in railroad work, a physician who examined 700 appli cants for positions as railroad men found only one who waa color blind. Several of the applicants, however, did .not know the proper names cf the colors. They were able to group and match test samples accurately enough, but were uncertain when asked to pick out certain colon and name them."
