GOOD NEWS
To the Chapter Secretary: Word
has Just been received from Washing
ton headquarters that chapters may
retain 26c of each additional dollar
paid by annual members for the pur
pose of raising their memberships in
the magazine class.
Thus, if Mr. Smith became an An
nual member during the Christmas
drive, he may become a Magazine
member by paying an additional dol
lar (before April first) and the chap
ter may retain 26c of this additional
dollar.
The accounting should be made to
your Division Headquarters as usual.
The names and addresses of the new
subscribers should be forwarded to
the Red Cross Magazine at Garden
City, New York.
We have been hoping for this an
nouncement for some time for it is
only fair that chapters be granted a
commission for securing Magazine
memberships in this way. The oppor
tunity to swell your treasury and at
the same time to see that your mem
bers are kept interested and enthusi
astic by a live magazine devoted to
the Red Cross cause is now yours.
Will you please bring this notice to
the attention of the branches and aux
iliaries in your Jurisdiction?
Very sincerely yours,
THE RED CROSS MAGAZINE.
