RED GROSS AID TO VETS MOUNTING Heavier Demands for War Ser¬ vice Laid to New Legislation Granting Wide Benefits. ACTIVE FORCES AIDED ALSO Duty to Ex-Service and Service Men First Responsibility of the Red Cross. A marked Increase In the service given by the American Red Cross to ex-service men, through Chapters, hos¬ pitals, CJovernment and Red Cross offices during the past year, and which T0 j ume j a expected to be maintained during most of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1926, is shown in the re ports of the war service activities of the organization, just comploted. Service to the disabled and to men now in active service continued to be ono of the primary obligations of the Red Cross. The increased ac tirHles in this regard were attributed largely to the legislation giving new benefits to ex-service men. The keystone of the Red Cross ser vlco lies in the Home Service work of the chapters to veterans and men still in service. At the close of the f | ara i yea r Juno 30, 1925, 2.591 Chap tors wore active in this work and had expended approximately $2,237,000. Included in their work was assist¬ ance to ex-service men in making out adjusted compensation papers, in the handling of claims reopened, or made possible under liberalized terms of the World War Veterans’ Act of 1924; and In many other ways. An unusual amount of legislation passed by Congrose and State bodies has necessitated the issue of much new material in the past year. Leg¬ islation was passed during the year liberalizing conditions applying to hospitalization, compensation and other benefits under the Veterans’ Bureau; this in turn has entailed re¬ opening of many claims formerly dis¬ allowed, filing of many new ones, and many applications for hospitalization. The Claims Service at National Head¬ quarters this year handled 17,506 in comparison with 12.010 cases the pre vlous year. Increased service to men in hospl ;als was noted, as well in the number Df hospitals in which service was maintained by the organization. Due to new legislation an increase of over 5.000 patients were admitted for hos¬ pitalization, a new peak approximating '.hat of March 1922. Since a large number or this group Includes pa¬ tients not eligible for compensation, ;he solution of their personal and fam¬ ily problems has involved careful itudy by the National Organization. There are 30,000 disabled ox-servtce men in Government hospitals every lay of the year, and their need has Urectly led to a revival of the best tnown and perhaps most popular ac¬ tivity the Red Cross sponsored in war -a new campaign for knitted “Red ' Yoss " Th?se articles are imong the few not furnished by the lovemment. For the men still on active duty In he Army. Navy and Marines, the Red >o«s during the year maintained rteld Directors at all important sta : ions. and hospitals of these 1 camps, irmed forces of the country. A monthly average of 96.931 service ind ex service men were aided by the led Cross during the year. The man in service, and the man vho has served his country are among he primary responsibilities for which he American Red Cross is chartered 5y Congress- Nevertheless it has R« n y other obligations and it is on his basis that an appeal will be made or a larger enrollment than ever dur ng the Annual Roil Call.

LIBRARY NOTES The Library Auxiliary has recently given to the Library $50.00 worth of now books for children—books for the little children, and books for the older ones. Something new for all ages. They are now ready to be given out, and have been shellacked and put into such condition that dirty little hands won't play such havoc with the pretty new covers. I wonder if the children have noticed the poster in the library about clean books? There are also new books for the grown-ups. How many of you have read the "Perennial Bachelor”? The New Harper Prize Novel? It is a story of the dominance of one charac¬ ter through the idolatry of the femi¬ nine part of the household, and the resultant decadence. It is a most in¬ teresting series of character studies, and we feel that we have met and known most of them—especially Vic¬ tor, his adoring mother and the self sacrificing Maggie. A well-written book, and a concise picture of the times it deals with. And “Green Thursday”—a new se¬ ries of stories by a new author. Ne¬ gro stories, written by a Southern woman. They are pathetic, true to life, and thoughtful. The impression that remained with me with regard to this book was that even the every day life of the average farm negro has its romance, its troubles, its joys and its comforts, just as much so as ours. A story you ought to enjoy. — C. E. HEALTH AIM OF RED CROSS PROGRAM Nurses Guard Community Health; Home Hygiene and Nutrition Featured. The Increasing appreciation hy the American people of the value of a na¬ tional health structure is reflected in the comprehensive machinery built up hy the American Red Cross and kept in constant operation In the past year, in the Interest of national health. Instruction in home hygiene and care of the sick, in nutrition; inspec¬ tion of school children, the mainte¬ nance of an effective nursing service, all formed a part of the Red Cross or¬ ganization assisting in keeping Amer¬ ica well. Altogether 51.121 stndents were in¬ structed in home hygiene and care of the sick, including 3M30 school stu¬ dents, of whom 20,381 received cer¬ tificates. This work reached the Girl Scouts, Camp Fire GitIs and Girl Re serves; also telephone companies. public and private schools, commu¬ nity and industrial groups. An un usual fact of this service was its adap tion to the needs of the blind, through transcription of the text book In Braille print. The year's work also demonstrated a growing understanding and appre¬ ciation on the part of Red Cross field representatives, chapters, co-operating agencies and others, of the place of nutrition in community programs, looking to community health. There were 2,800 dietitians enrolled during the year; regular nutrition in¬ struction reached 13S.065 children; 20,359 adults attended nutrition meet¬ ings, while 1,885 schools were aided in furnishing lunches. Co-operative relationships were es¬ tablished with various Government and educational agencies in making this branch of the Red Cross health work more effective. Another.of the health-promoting ac¬ tivities of the Red Cross lies in its public health nursing service. There are nearly 1,000 such nurses serving in every part of the country. As an invaluable reservoir in time of a great national emergency, there is enrolled under the Red Cross ban¬ ner a reserve of 42,002 nurses. In a number of disasters during the past year in which the Red Cross Iras aided, and where the services of the nurses were required, they have been among the first to mobilize. At Lorain, O., last year 34 enrolled Red Cross nurses were engaged in re¬ lief work, while 124 were employed ir. the mid-west tornado disaster relief operation of this year. The work of Mrs. Dorothy Davis Sleicbter, a Red Cross public health nurse stationed at Fairbanks, Alaska, in checking a flu epidemic at Fort Yukon, in the Arctic, has won praise from all who knew of it. It is to assist in maintaining such valuable services to the community that the American Red Cross invites members during its ninth annual roll call. November 11 to 26. the only such appeal which the Red Cross makes in the year. No appeal Is so international as that to the humanity of every people. The sum of $1.50 from a Japanese boy in Tokio to the Santa Barbara relief fund bespeaks a world of friendship, en¬ gendered by the American Red Cross, *r HERE’S A MESSAGE From V '7, 7U SANTA CLAUS .. m M 4 V ■r i Old Santa Says “1 Want Everyone to Wear v-* ! / _ ‘ Wk; the best Silk Hose at Xmas time.

He accomplish ed his mission most successfully, ac cording to members of the church, and will be asked to supply the pulpit on every occasion when his father is absent, it was said. Members of the church say it is not surprising that A. . J.
