An allegorical concept of the Red Cross as a peace-time ideal is era
ployed by the American Red Cross in a new and striking poster for its
Annual Red Cross Roll Call. Spread out before the heroic size figure is the
outline of the United States with a Red Cross superimposed upon it while
around its borders are sketched scenes depicting the chief activities of the
Red Cross today service to disabled veterans of the World War, disaster
relief and promotion of the public health. The poster .is the work of
Lawrence Wilbur, a New York artist and will be displayed throughout the
country during the enrollment of the Red Cross membership for 1923.

The task of the lied Cross TuMIc
Health nurse in the 1,2-10 nursing serv
ices now operating throughout the
country instructing their communities
in health essentials and disease pre
vention is demonstrating the possibili
ties of human betterment and the great
benefits of enlightenment.
During the last year 313 new public
health nursing services were establish
ed by Red Cross Chapters, and several
hundred services so convincingly prov
ed their effectiveness that they were
taken over by public authorities. In
orilcr'to promote this work $.".0,000 was
allotted to provide women to prepare
themselves for public nursing. The
home visits made by the 1,210 nurses
aggregated nearly 1,. "00,000, visits to
schools numbered 110,000, and in six
months 1,250,000 school children were
Inspected by these nurses and where
defects were found advised examina
tion by physicians. In rural commu
nities this service has made a very
marked advance and has won thou
sands of converts to approved methods
of disease prevention.

"Will You
Excuse It, Please-
There Is No One ontheLineNow"
Mistakes arebound to happen. We all make
them. When your telephone bell rings and the
operator says, "Will you excuse it please, there
is no one on the line now," she is not responsible
for your annoyance and inconvenience.
The occasion for the use of the phrase most
frequently arises when the called party is slow to
answer the calling subscriber does not' wait
and hangs up his telephone.
Many times daily telephone users call wrong
numbers use incorrect prefixes, such as "Main"
for "Market" transpose figures, such as 5342
for 5432. Suddenly realizing their mistakes,
they hang up their telephone.
Without fault or negligence on her part the
telephone operator is left to explain, and the
sentence first quoted is that adopted as most
briefly and concisely covering the situation.
