The Red Cross Membership Drive The spirit of Christmas exhales love, mercy and charity. This great church holiday tells of the love which God Almighty cherishes for mankind, a love so profound that he sent his only Son into the flesh. . . The work of the Red Cross society exemplifies a spirit of love present in our hearts and desirous of embracing the unfortunate men who are founded on battlefields, and the starving men, women and children of ill-fated countries. The 'Red Cross is organized mercy and charity, administered by kind hands. Vou are asked to enlist in this cause. Five million men and women are members today.- . '-The Society is seeking a membership of 15,000,000 by Christmas Eve. This means the addition of 10,000,000 members. Ten million members is a large number, but it is not without the pale of possibility. The number can be added if every man and woman sees his duty and then act3.. - A movement so beneficent as is the one undertaken by the Red Cross society depends for success on the high moral appeal which it makes to the people. . ' ' ..- ;v If the people are imbued with a spirit of love and charity, they will be impelled from within to join the organization and participate in its great work. ' . ': The society hopes to enlarge its enrollment by virtue of the spiritual response which the people of the United States make to the appeal. ' The membership campaign is to be launched just a few days before the Nativity holiday. The Red Cross is merging its endeavor in the atmosphere of love and kindness that surrounds the great holiday. The local branch has perfected an organiza

tion to enlist your co-operation. Christmas by joining the Red Cross.

Watch Your Furnace Fire By the United States Fuel Administrator for Indiana.

lady, after asking numerous questions, suddenly, spotted a squad of marines lined up ready for inspection., by the officer. She pounced suddenly on the sturdy seaman and said: "Whatever do they keep a regiment of soldiers on board for." The old man, turned round fiercely on his wife and said: "Maria, don't show your ignorance

so much. You "ought to . know very well what them marines are for; they are kept for the sailors to spin yarns to." The subject what the whale, and the teacher, who had even a lesson on the same subject a week previously, was. anxious to see how much the children remembered. But they seemed

never to have beard of a whale before, and were extraordinarily stupid. "Come cornel," cried the teacher. "What do "we do with whalebones T" There was a minute's silence, then a small hand was raised. - r "We leaves 'em on the side of our plates!"; v -. "Edward, you disobeyed your grand

,Do. you realize that the average furnace fire wastes more heat than is applied to the heating of the house? ! - . Extensive investigation by the Engineering Experiment Station of the University of Illinois shows that the average furnace wastes 70 percent of the heat produced. There is 10 percent waste in the ash pit, 15 percent waste in radiation in the furnace room, 30 percent waste in combustible gases escaping through the chimney and 15 percent waste on account of soot accumulations. . It is probably impossible to get 100 percent efficiency in fuel consumption in the furnace, but the waste of fuel can be cut down very materially if one gives the firing of the furnace close attention. . .

Character of the fuel, draft control, method of

firing and care of the heater in service. are the four elements entering into the loss or saving of fuel and heat. Coal of uniform size will give better service than coal that is run of mine. At this time the

! coal shortage makes it impossible to be "choice"

about the sort of coal one gets, and, therefore, domestic consumers will be forced to do the best they Can with the coal they can get. Where there is no uniformity in size in the coal light firing will be the best results for heat. i The "banked" fire is a frequent source of waste heat. Few persons realize that to shovel into the fire pot a great quantity of new coal, shut off the drafts so that it will hold fire over night, is the most wasteful way of banking a fire. New coal always should be permitted to burn a while,

to be well started in the-coking process, before! El

the fire is banked. When new coal is heaped in the furnace, and left for the night, most of the combustible gases are coked out of the coal and escape through the chimney without being burned. The Indiana fuel administration is very emphatic in its declarations that there is to be a very serious coal, shortage as soon as cold weather comes if domestic users of coal do not carefully devotethemselves to the task of getting the maximum efficiency from their furnaces and thereby cutting down on the domestic coal consumption.
