Well, Laddie Ann Arbor and Lassie County are getting right down to work marking up Red Cross "$" signs. Today Lassie County was busier than Laddie Ann Arbor, for she marked up two "$" signs, each representing $2,000 and started on another. Collections turned in from outside Ann Arbor now total $13,721, which is 44 per cent of the $31,000 goal for that area. Ann Arbor returned reached $37,977 today, which is 61.7 per cent of the city's quota. Washtenaw county as a whole now has turned in $51,698, or nearly 56 per cent of its $92,500 quota. Response to the Red Cross appeal for fund to carry on its splendid work with our armed forces, here at home, and with the distressed everywhere has been generous. Are you, Dear Reader, one of the big-hearted givers?

Look at those "$" signs go up! Each represents $2,000 turned in toward Washtenaw county's $92,500 Red Cross quota. Today Laddie Ann Arbor and Lassie County chalked up five more "$" signs, for a total of 31. This leaves them 15 still to go to fill the Cross. Ann Arbor's total today stood at $43,837, which is 71 per cent of the city's quota. Towns and rural districts have turned in $18,163, or 58.6 per cent of their goal. Total for Washtenaw county was $62,000 -- or 67 per cent of our objective. How about YOUR Dollars, Dear Reader? Are they in there ready to fight with the Red Cross -- to fight in the cause of mercy and humanity? We're going to win in this drive! Do YOU want to be among the winners?
