AMERICAN RED CROSS TO GIVE RURAL HELP Program lor Public Health and Community Welfare Is Now Well Under Way. Rural communities and towns of l< ss than 8,000 population benefit in a very large part by the public health an community welfare work of the . 'm | can Red Cross. Almost nil of i 3,800 Red Cross chapters have some rural sections in their territory. 1 1,11 fore the Red Cross Rural Service. Briefly, the purpose of Rural Sen lee Is to assist people to get out of life more health, wealth and happlne'S. In tills purpose public health instruction nod general educational progr<-s " both children and adults play a big i purt. Recreation Is found to be one of tlm , biggest needs In rural life. There I- ! lack of sufficient play-life for the ch dren and social life for the adults. Picnics, pageants, debating club -- . I baseball leagues, community singing I and other social events which bring ! tlie people of surrounding communities ' ’iigether have been organ!/' 1 and car- ! ried on under the guidance of Led Cross rural workers to great advanage. In many instances solving recreational problems and getting people together proves to be the awakening of the community to other conditions which may be improved by united action. As a result of community organization, townships in which there had been neither plans nor Interest in community progress lune been organized to work together with the unified I purpose of bringing their community up to tlie most enlightened standards. Lecture and musical entertalnraenf courses have been started as a result of community meetings, as well as circulating libraries, Red Cross schools oj instruction In Home Nursing, Care f>f the Sick and First Aid. In the larger towns the need for restrooms find public comfort stations is being met. Playgrounds for the children have been established and recreational activities worked out for the year. In order that there may - be concert'd/, effort in carrying on Ure of the various welfare agencies the rural districts. Red Cross Service helps the organizations Already on the ground. The main object of the service is to lend a hand everywhere nnd taks tlie lead necessary, z ? JUNIOR RED CROSS X Active in Europe Garden seeds for Polish orphans, milk for anaemic Greek babies, carpenters’ tools for Czecho-Slovakian cripples—these are only a few of the gifts that young Americans are sending to tlie war-crushed children of the Old World. Through the Junior Red Cross the boys and girls of the United States are giving a fresh start in life to little 'vnr orphans scattered all over Europe. They have set up orphans’ homes in France, school colonies In Belgium and Montenegro, and day schools In Albania. They are sending dozens of young Syrians, Montenegrins, and Albanians to American colleges in Copstantlnople and Beirut, and maintaining more than a hundred orphans of French soldiers at colleges and schools. In orphanages and farm schools up and down the peninsula of Italy there are nearly 500 wards of American Juniors. Last winter a thousand French children from the inadequate shelters of the devasted regions were sent by tlie Junior Red Cross to spend the cold months in warmer parts of France. At the same time five thousand little Belgians were bnving a hot lunch every day at Junior Red Cross school canteens. American school children have already raised something like a million dollars for these enterprises, and they rare still hard at work. In China, through campaigns of education, the Junior Red Cross is helping to combat widely prevalent blindness and cholera. RED CROSS RELIEF IN CENTRAL EUROPE But for timely assistance of the American Red Cross during the last year, a large proportion of the 20,000.000 population of the Balkan States might have starved or perished from disease or exposure. Six million dollars Worth of food, clothing and medical supplies have been sent to the Balkans —Roumania, Bulgaria, Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia and Greece —since the beginning of Red Cross relief operations in Central Europe, while millions of dollars worth of food alone has been sent to the needy In these states. The money expended by the Red Cross In this stricken portion of Europe has been used to set up hospitals orphanages, dispensaries, mobile medical units and to help In the general reconstruction of devastated areas. Arrteriican tractors and other farming Implements have been sent to the agricultural regions where aid has been given In plowing the land. By the last of this year probably all American Red Cross agencies administering relief in Central Europe will have withdrawn. By that time, It Is believed, the people will have approached a normal state of living and will be able through their own agencies which the Red Cross has helped set, up to provide for themselves.
