Red Cross workers who have lately achieved their hundred hours of Red Cross accomplishment include Mrs. Josie Chapman; Mrs. May Pickett, Reelsville; Mrs. Lena Staten; Mrs. William Thomas and Mrs. Walter Woodrum. An outstanding record for Red Cross production, knitting and surgical dressings, has been made by Mrs. A. R. Strandring. She has given a total of 1,018 hours to Red Cross activity. Also notable is the number of hours credited to the l adies’ Aid at Roachdale. They nave spent 1,058 hours in Red Cross sewing.
A most creditable program of lunior Red Cross work is being accomplished by a little rural school in Madison township. Junior Red Cross was established in Number 10 school there, just three months ago and in that time the seventeen pupils have collected eleven bags of milk weed pods, sold scrap paper and earned nine dollars by soliciting magazine subscriptions. Thus has their Junior Red Cross fund accumulated thirteen dollars. In addition, they have made two checker boards and are now preparing boards for Chinese checkers. Their contribution of games for hospitalized service men and women was recently brought to Putnam county Red Cross chapter office. Ray Evans is the teacher m this school and he serves as sponsor for this enthusiastic new group of Junior Red Crosa-
crs.
