RED CROSS
Splendid Record of Whitman County in Support of the Red Cross
By WM. GOODYEAR
Whitman County splendidly maintained its pat- riotic record in the support of all war activities by its loyal response to the call of the Red Cross.
The first Red Cross- drive was made in June, 1917. C. L. Mackenzie of Colfax acted as county chairman and U. L. Ettinger of Colfax as business manager. Whitman County's quota was fixed at $43,000.00, but the subscriptions totalled over $47,000.00, when the drive closed.
In the second Red Cross drive, which came dur- ing the week of May 20-27, 1918, Whitman County's quota was fixed at $40,000.00. Wm. Goodyear of Pullman acted as county chairman and S. M. Mc- Croskey of Colfax as secretary. The county was divided into three districts with W. C. Fudge of Colfax, D. L. Clarke of Rosalia, and J. N. Scott of Pullman, as supervisors of the respective districts. The slogan adopted was, "Let's go over the top the first day of the drive," and this ambition was real- ized, $44,096.30 being subscribed on Monday May 20. The subscriptions by towns were as follows:

The first Red Cross roll call after the signing of the Armistice, came in December, 1918, and once more the people of the county responded cheer- fully and generously to the support of the organ- ization. Wm. Goodyear of Pullman again acted as county chairman and S. M. McCroskey of Colfax as secretary. The work of soliciting memberships was turned over to the ladies and they proved their interest and efficiency by securing 9,580 members.
The membership drive for 1919 resulted in the securing of 5,250 dollar memberships over the county.
There were few slackers in Whitman County when it came to Red Cross work. Men and women cheerfully answered every call made upon them and gave liberally of their time and money to carry on the good work. All seemed to appreciate the force of the appeal, "Remember that the more Red Cross supporters there are in the United States, the fewer wooden crosses there will be in France to mark the graves of our boys," and there were very few city or farm homes in the county which did not display Red Cross flags in their windows.
In addition to the financial support given the Red Cross, vast amounts of hospital supplies were turned out by the several branches and auxiliaries in Whitman County, and invaluable services were rendered during the influenza epidemic by the Red Cross members. This was especially true in Pullman when several hundred members of the S. A. T. C. stationed at the State College of Wash- ington came down with the disease. Hospital wards were opened in three churches and placed in charge of the local branch of the Red Cross, which rose to the crisis splendidly and was a very important factor in handling a difficult and serious situation.
In a word, the people of Whitman County have on every occasion and in every way, demonstrated their loyalty to the American Red Cross, "The Greatest Mother in the World."
