The Girl Scouts of America are
hard at work for the Food Admin
istration. So far they have con-
cerned themselves with two tasks,
that OF assisting in, and giving can
ming demonstration, and Of aiding
in the distribution of Food Pledge
Cards Of the housewives Of the ma
ton.
In many cities, local chapters,
under the guidance of graduate
sent by the State Agricultural Col
lege are being taught scientific can
ming. Accustomed to strict obedi-
ence, the Girl Scouts, have been
exceedingly apt pupils.
1t has been suggested that the
Girl Scout wear. SO far as possible,
the Food Administration Uniform.

Their use would release for SOL
diers the khaki that now figures in
Scout uniforms.
When a girl becomes Scout she
weds herself to the ideal of Ameri-
can womanhood, promising to love,
honor and obey the Scout law that
helps her to reach that ideal. Girl
Scouts are really Soldiers Of the
Home. From nature lore and sports
they learn the lessons Of health,
.comradliness and simplicity. They
learn household science in q way
that makes it yield 100 percent SER
vice to the family; and, they also
learn those things whereby they
can serve that bigger family, their
nation, in its present crisis-photo-
graphy, signaling, gardening, tele-
graphy, dairy work and first aid.

Warner School Starts
Student Government Work

Next Wednesday afternoon Is
the date set for the first meeting
Of the Good Government League at
Warner School, and the student
government work will be begun
then.
The election or representatives
from each of the rooms Is never
held until at least two weeks after
school begins, in order to give the
boys and girls plenty of time to
get acquainted and decide who is
best fitted to represent the others.
Since it is such an honor to be
elected, it is only fair to the new
boys and girls who come from
other schools to give them chance
to show what ideas they have and
what an attitude they will take to-
wards school affairs, before the
election is held.
Since this is the eleventh year
the school has had the Good Gov
eminent League, probably they will
decide on many important matters
this year, especially since this is
the first year of war and such ques-

MY TRIP EAST

Dear Aunt Molly.
/ want to tell you about my trip
east, We went to Pennsylvania,
Delaware and New Jersey. We had
the most fun In Atlantic City.
We went in a big building called
a Steeple Chase. 1t cost rs cents
to get in 1t. In it there are big
slides and soup bowl, There is
one great big slide about three or
four stories high. We had the most
fun on that.
At the end of it there Is a soup
bowl. You can't get out of it unless
you take hold OF rope and pull
yourself out.-Edwin May, Warner

cooperation, knowing as l do that
school children will give their best
services under the direct guidance
and instruction OF their teachers.
Is not this perhaps the chance for
which you have been looking to
give your time and efforts in some
measure to meet our national
needs? WOODROW WILSON,
President"
The plans for working out the
Richmond branch of this Junior Red
Cross have not yet been completed,
but in general the idea will be this:
To make each school a unit, so that
when the school becomes q Junior
Red Cross School, then every pupil
in the school will be a member of
the Junior Red Cross, but not until
then. The membership dues will
equal twenty-five cents pupil, 80
that IL school has 200 members,
the school dues will be $4,000; but
this money may be raised by giving
entertainments, having sales, sell
ing scrap paper, or by contributions,
instead OF making each child pay
twenty-five cents, which would be
much harder for some children to
do than others.
A second point Is that the money
raised by the Junior Red Cross is to
be kept entirely separate from the
Senior Red Cross fund. It will go
to buy material for the children to
work with and prepare for use,
themselves. And the work they do
also will be different in many ways
from the work the Senior Red Cross
is doing.
The Junior Red Cross probably
will furnish supplies for the relief
OF war orphans, and all children
who are suffering because of the
war. Also they will make articles
for the army and navy, to be used
In the mercy work.
In organizing the work Mr. Giles,
of the schools, will
be general chairman. Then the
work probably will be done through
four divisions, l high school, 2 Gar
field, upper classes of grade
schools. and lower classes of
grade schools. Each boy and girls
in every school which becomes a
member Of the Junior Red Cross
will be given some active work to
do, In packing and wrapping, in
buying the material, in supplying
reports for the newspapers, in help
ing to keep the books, and much of

Children.

President Wilson has issued the
following proclamation to all the
school children Of the United

can find a chance to serve our coun-
try. The school is the natural CEN
ter of your life. Through 1t you
can best work in the great cause of
freedom to which we have all
pledged ourselves
Our Junior Red Cross will bring
to You opportunities of service to
your community and to other COM
munities all over the world and
guide your service with high and re-
ligious ideals. II will teach you

how to prepare some OF the supplies
which wounded soldiers and home
less families lack. 1t will send to
you, through the Red Cross bulle-
tins, the thrilling stories of relief
and rescue. And, best OF all, more
perfectly than through any of your
other school lessons, you will learn
by doing these kind things under
your teachers direction to be the
future good citizens of this great
country which we all love.
And l commend to all school
teachers in the country the simple
plan which the American Red Cross

In this way 1t ia hoped that the
children will learn how great con-
strucuve work Is done and be
doubly interested In the cause since
they will have made every part of
Il their very own.

Then up did Jawn filler and in
