JUNIOR AMERICAN RED
CROSS ARMY 5,596,563
Children of 29.942 Schools Now
Enrolled in Movement of
Service to Humanity.
The American Junior Red Cross,
which was organized as a children’s
auxiliary during war-times especially
to help the young refugees in Europe,
and to exemplify in peace-time the
Red Cross ideal of service, has now a
I membership of 5,596,663 in the schools
of the United States and the insular
possessions.
This Junior movement gives oppor
tunity for the children to share in
Red Cross effort parallel to that of
j the parent organization. Juniors are
therefore identified in varying degree
with the health services, disaster re
lief work, salvage and other suitable
activities of value to the operations
of the Red Cross.
It is a valiant host marching on
j under Its “I Serve" banner in the
cause of happier childhood every-
I where and particularly wherever the
American flag flies. The enrollment
embraces 29,942 schools and 147,486
school rooms, a gain over 1923 of
5,655 schools and 22,414 school rooms.
The year’s gain in membership was
769,402 children, or nearly 80,000 for
each month of the school year.
The educational and social values
of the Junior Red Cross movement Is
thus evidencing the firm and cordial
endorsement of school authorities. The
I government has added the weight of
! recognition by extending the Junior
Red Cross in the schools for American
Indian children. The American Red
Cross is also planning to develop the
Junior program in 600 rural schools
in isolated sections.
There is no abatement of the ex
change of correspondence between
schools in the United States and
schools in the insular possessions
1 and foreign lands. During the year
■ the Junior Red Cross in pert support
ed operations in twelve European
countries. It Is a potent Influence for
the cultivation of international good
will and its example has been the
i means of stimulating the formation
of Junior Red Cross societies in more
than thirty countries.
RED CROSS RAISES $10,000,000
IN 21 DAYS FOR RELIEF
Terrible catastrophes, such as the
Japanese earthquake, prove the wis
dom of the people in maintaining the
American Red Cross as their national
and international relief agency. The
readiness of the Red Cross for duty in
the greatest of emergencies was also
proved by test
The record shows: Sept 3, Presi
dent Coolidge assigns the duty of rais
ing $5,000,000 to the American Red
Cross; Sept. 4, Red Cross Chapters in
over 3,500 communities given fund al
lotments; Sept. 12, fund totals $5,563,-
000; Sept. 17, fund nearly $8,000,000
and President announces formal clos
ing of campaign; Sept. 27, fund passes
$10,000,000 mark.
In 21 business days the Red Cross
doubly performed the duty entrusted
to it —all the while keeping a steady
flow of relief supplies going out from
many Pacific ports to the stricken
areas in Japan. Thus was the confi
dence of the American people in their
Red Cross justified and the wisdom of
Red Cross preparedness to cope with
an unprecedented relief emergency
confirmed.

ADVICE AN ENT
SNAKE BITES
The season of the year for snake
bites and the consequent hysterical
excitement is here. We have only a
few snakes that are poisonous, the rat
tle and the moccasin being the princi
pal ones. ' The ordinary snake, should
it bite, would be no more dangerous
than the bite of a rat, dog, cat or any
domestic animal. Many people suffer
more from treatment given for snake
bite than they would if nothing had
been done at all. If bitten by a poi
sonous snake, no time should be lost.
Cord above, incise the wound, suck
out the blood, but send quickly for a
physician. The poison enters the sys
tem as quickly as . hypodermic injec
tion. Not a moment should ho loaf
There’s always hope for a man
until he loses his self-respect.
