Fioai national headquarters of the American Red Cross conies the announcement that Madeleine Carroll, internationally known beauty of screen and radio, has arrived in North Africa where she is serving as Red Cros s staff aide in hospitals for American troops. Imagine coming out from ether to find Madeleine Carroll holding your hand! The soldier who finds himself in that spot is apt to think, for a few minutes, anyway, that General Sherman exaggerated in his definition of war. First Aid chairman L. B. Cowgill has set a pattern for other chapter chairmen by publishing a ‘‘newspaper" for Putnam county First Aid instructors. He has named his mimeographed sheet Tincture of News,” and it is filled with timely items of particular interest to First Aiders. Twelve instructors in this branch of Red Cross service attended the study meeting on the evening of April 6. These meetings are scheduled for every Thursday, at 7:,TO p. m. ( and are open to any persons interested in First Aid. The meeting place
is the Masonic Tempi*.
Not least among the satisfying experiences that come to all Red Cross workers are the unsolicited letters of appreciation of Red Cross work. Lately there has come to Putnam county chapter of the American Red Cross a note that will give a warm glow to the many women who have had a part in the making and packing of Red Cross kit bags. It bears a New York APO and reads as fol-
lows ::
•
“To Whom It May Concern: "Just to let you know I’m one of many soldiers who certainly appreciated your kind thoughts in giving us a gift, a duffle bag full of useful items, j thank you, most sincerely: especially for the writing equipment. I have the habit of writing my wife every day and received the above named itom just as I uied up
my own stationary.
"May God bless you folks for the good work, and may He end the mess the world is in at present.” The note was signed by Pvt. L. Raczak. Each of the kit bags that goes out from here carries a small "Putnam County, Ind Chapter” tag and to that address Pvt. Raczak sent his word of appreciation.
