Contests To Promote Interest In First Aid

custom for years in certain locali-
ties.
Rules for conducting first aid con-
tests, and problems for the practice
of teams, from which selections may
be made at first aid contests, can
be obtained upon application to the
first aid division.
Work already accomplished by the
first aid can only be stated briefly
and incompletely. In the latter part
of 1909 authority for the organiza-
ton of the division was granted by
the governing body of the American
Red Cross, but it's actual organization
date from January 2, 1910.
BY the provisions of an act of con-
gress, the division is in charge OF
an officer detailed from the medical
corps of the United States army, and
is under the bureau of medical SER
vice, which, in turn, is part of the
department of military relief of the
Red Cross. The war relief board,
which acts in an advisory capacity to
the central committee of the Ameri-
can Red Cross in matters connected
with military relief, takes a special
interest in the first aid division
through large sub committee known
as the national first aid committee.
During the past seven years repre-
sentatives of the division have been
over nearly the entire United States,
the total travel amounting to more
than 100000 miles. During that time
upwards of $4,000 persons have re-
ceived instruction in first aid to the
injured under its auspices on the rail-
! roads of the country alone. Two cars
, in charge of physicians belonging to
the division, each specially fitted up
with lecture room for first aid IN
struction, are kept in constant OPP
Grafton over the railroads of the
country, usually one on lines east OF
the Mississippi and the other on sys-
TENS west of that river. Two add1-
tional physicians are available Tor
work in special districts or with Ger
tain industrial concerns. Frequently
| the physicians of the staff are loaned,
| under mutually agreeable conditions,
to telephone companies and electrical
manufactures, mines, lumber mills,
quarfies, and other industrial con-
Germs for the purpose of lnstructlng
their employees in first aid to the IN
iured and accident prevention. 1t IS
| expected that as funds become avail
able other physicians will be added
| to the staff of the division.

In Times Of Peace The Red Cross Serves

sick and wounded, rebuilt homes, SOW
ed fresh crops in the fields and re-
established ruined industries. Today
the Red Cross has bread line in
the islands off the Carolina coast.
But for this aid hundreds would have
starved because of the total failure
of their crops.
By means of specially equipped
railroad cars, first aid and life saving
methods are taught in mining camps,
among lumber camps and our great

A work of education is being done

The work of the Red Cross is not

Cross in the rural districts, Miss
Landrum said:
Il am trying to impress upon the
members of the Canning Club and the
Poultry Clubs, and all with whom l
come in contact in the rural districts,
that just now an important thing to
the government is the raising of food
stuffs.
GAIL of the girls have one-tenth
of one acre under cultivation, but
a number of them have undertaken
to cultivate even more than this, and
in this way do a valuable part in
helping to feed the nation.
"Many of the girls, however, will
assist in other ways, helping as the
opportunity arises, in the Red Cross
work, through doing sewing or as
sisting in other ways which may seem
to be feasible"

BURNS is GOOD PLAYER
Giant Outfelder Most Consistent
Player i'm League.

George Burns. left fielder of the
Giants. is one of the brightest stars
in the National league. and one of
the most consistent players in either
major circuit.
Burns recently played his 325th
consecutive game with the New
York club, and if he succeeds in
avoiding injuries, he will pass the
4OOth consecutive mark this season.
In 1916 Burns scored more runs
than any other National league
player, while in the first seven games
of the current season he accounted
for nine runs. which is considered
a remarkable performance.
SO far this season Burns has been
hitting close around 400. and Nc
Graw predicts that he will give all
rivals "a hot race for the batting
championship of the league this
year. Burns has several strong
rivals on his own club in Robertson,
Kauff and Walter HOlke.

One Chance Given YOungSter
And He Proves His
Merit As Player.

NEW YORK. May 5.-One chance
often makes a ball player who really
has the class TO hold down "a job In
the major leagues
Many a youngster is passed up by
two or three scouts and picked up
by another only to be disappointed
by getting no call because the word
is passed around that "so-and-so"
passed him up, and the club owner
would rather take the opinion OF two
scouts. even though they might be
working for another club.
Such a yOUngster is Pete Kildun

who is making a big fight for the
utility infeld job under Jawn Nc
Graw
Kildun came close TO going TO the
Yankees. but was passed up by the
scouts. Dick Kinsella, who worked
for Rupert and Huston last sum-
mer. and Joe Kelley. so young
"Peterkin" lost one chance there.
But while the Giants were ON their
second western swing McGraw was
advised TO put i'm a draft for kilduff,
and when the combing season open
ed he did so lie won the player and
took him 20 Marlin. but still Kilduff' s
chances looked small until one day
Art Baird informed McGraw he was

of Baird, and sent Joe Wagner. Kill

Then one day Buck HerZogs arm
commenced to ache a bit in the raw
Texas wind. So he took TO the bench

at second base. lie made such an
impression on McGraw that he will
be given every chance TO make a go
of il till the time comes for cutting
the player roster down to the limit
allowed by the National league.
Kildun has "A chance TO make good
in the opinion of the scribes who
follow the Giants, and if he does he
will beat Joe Wagner out of the
utility job If he falls he will at
least be sent to a club of higher
classification than Omaha, where the
Giants got him, and in all probable
ity there will be a string tied to him.

MATHEWS0N STRONG
FOR NEW SH0RTST0P
Billy Kopf Has Gotten i'm Good With
His New Boss.

Billy Kopf, new shortstopper of
the Cincinnati Reds, is in decidedly
good with his boss, Mr. Christopher
Mathewson. And being in good with
the boss amounts to something in
the big leagues.
In his efforts to build up a win
ner at Cincy, Matty has taken ad-
vantage of every opportunity that
has been offered him TO bolster his
club. and in Kopf he believes he has
uncovered a real star.
Matty isn't in the habit of ped
ding praise extravagantly unless it
is deserved. but he has been lavish
in handling the laurels to KOpf, aud
his sentiments are backed up by
Heinie Groh, who says the youngster
will soon be classed as another Her
zog.
Groh declares he has never work
ed with a partner who has more
natural ability than Kopf. He says
Kopf handles the hardest hit balls
with ease. and has developed into a
star in covering the bag, at which he
alternates with Groh.
connie Mack had hOpt at one
time. but in spite of his fielding
ability turned him back, for at that
time Billy wasn't hammering the
pill. This year his hitting is above
the average for a newcomer
