The official designation, and the only proper characterization of the demon stration that will occupy the attention of the American people, under the auspices of the' American Bed Cross, immediately preceding the coming holi day season, Is "The Bed Cross Christ mas Boll Call." The object of the Christmas Bon Can Is to register in terms of active participation the spirit '-of a nation. Tbe spirit In question is personified in Bed Cross membership. It Is not to be a "campaign" to raise a war fund nor a "drive" to strengthen the material resources of the Bed Cross organiza tion. Its matir objective is the ex tension of Bed Cross membership to tbe uttermost limit See to It that no false conception of the purpose of the Boll Call finds lodg meat anywhere, and, while emphasis ing the grandeur of the movement un der its only logical name, keep ever lastingly in mind the idea to "Make it unanimous." - NEW FACES FOB OLD. The American Bed Cross has under taken varied tasks. These range from darning the socks of the soldiers to making new faces for those disfigured by war. Mrs. Ladd, the wife of Dr. Ladd, now doing service in Bed Cross hospitals abroad. Is working in her Paris studio making masks to cover disfigured faces. A photograph of the soldier showing how he looked before being wounded is obtained and then a mask of copper or silver is made to re semble It and replace the part that Is gone. . This is made as lifelike as pos sible and held on, as a role, with bows behind the ears like spectacles. The soldier cannot eat or sleep in these masks, but he can see and breathe through them. Sometimes a nose Is put on so lifelike that it cannot be de tected, and sometimes it Is a chin or la rare instances almost the entire face. This great humanitarian work enables the victim to mingle with people .with out being made conspicuous or con scious that be is being avoided. ik Sx Now for a Bethlehem and Delivery Expansion Use the Efficiency and - Economy the war has taught 'carry on" the fair fight for business supremacy make your delivery service part -of your assets.
