McCORMICK MESSENGER, McCORMICK, SOUTH CAROLINA Thursday, November 13, 1941
The Ron Can For
American Red Cross
Started Tuesday, 11th
Tfce Roll call for the American
Red Cross officially started Tues
day, Nov. 11, 1941, for the 1942
Roll Call. Last year McCormick
County was third from the bottom
out of fifty-six chapters in the
state. Last year out of approxi
mately 10,000 people in McCormick
-County only 77 joined the Red
Cross. Let’s bring McCormick
County up in the higher bracks^
for the 42 Roll Call.
The Red Cross needs your mem
bership more this year than ever
before, some day you might need
the services of the Red cross. .Re
member the Red Cross is the only
organization in the United States
that serves the boys, our boys, in
every branch of the service,
whether in the Army, Navy, Ma
rines, or Air Corps. Let’s not dis
appoint these fellows who are in
training for us, let’s join the
American Red Cross and help
them in many, many ways.
Out of each dollar that is given,
fifty cents stays in McCormick
County for local Red Cross work.
What work are we doing in Mc
Cormick County? some of you
might ask. I would like to explain
one thing in particular that we
are doing. Mrs. D. J. McAllister
of Mt. Carmel, is- Home Service
Chairman of McCormick County,
and almost each day she has to
contact some camp in the United
States, Hawaii, or wherever a | /
soldier, sailor, marine might be
stationed to get word to him that
he is needed at home on, account
of illness in his family, or if there
is a death he is released through
the Red Cross so that he may
come home to be with his family
Don’t you think the Red Cross
is doing a great work? I’m sure
you think so. See some of the
following Roll Call workers and
;oin now:
Miss Ruth Corley, Mrs. C. H.
Huguley, Mrs. D. J. McAllister,
Mrs. W. A. Scott, Mrs. George
Dorn, Mrs. Mildred Nave, Mr. Lee
Martin, Mrs. Ollie Watson, and
your Roll Call chairman, Bill Fer
guson.

Defense Bond
QUIZ
Q. When will the “drive” to
sell Defense Savings Bonds begin?
A. There will be no “drive.”
Many people think of the defense
Savings Program as like the Lib
erty Loan campaigns of the first
World War, which were conducted
for stated periods to raise specific
quotas. The Defense Savin 0 s
Program is a long-range, contin
uing effort to stimulate the public
to buy more and more Defense
Bonds and Stamps month by
month, and is essentially a pro
gram to promote mass saving, as
well as to provide money for de
fense.
Q. Are the Defense Savings
Stamps sold at retail stores ex
changeable for Defense Savings
Bonds?
A. Yes. They are the same as
Stamps on sale at post offices and
elsewhere.
NOTE—To buy Defense Bonds
and Stamps, go to the nearest
post office, bank, or savings : nd
loan association; or write to he
