RED CROSS ACTIVITIES DO
NOT STOP WITH WARS END

Provost Marshal General Crowder
is Of the opinion that the work Of
the American Red Cross will be in
creased rather than diminished by
the arrival Of peace. Discussing
the Christmas roll call of the Red
Cross recently he made the following
statement regarding the necessity of
the organization continuing its work
abroad and at home:
1.-THE need of the Red Cross does
not terminate with the cessation of
hostilities-rather are its usefulness
and its scope increased. With the
war at an end, the Red Cross must
turn its hand to the rehabilitation Of
devastated Europe, not only in the
late theatres Of operation but in all
those fields just delivered from hos
tile occupation and among all those

With view to increasing the num-
Der Of supplies available and as eco.
nomically as possible, the bureau Of
chapter production is constantly ex.
perimenting in the manufacture Of
substitute materials for those which
are hard to obtain.
Many suggestions are received and
considered regarding the change Of
standards in supplies, but all such
changes are made, however, as the
result Of direct authorization from
the foreign commissions of the Red
Cross.
In presenting this resume of the
activities of the American Red Cross
the War Council wishes to assure the

their work is fully appreciated and
that no mere words are capable of de.

A Happy Course in
Playing and Eating

After the pupils are thus voluntarily
enlisted, each child is given a brown
notebook entitled, "Record Book of Meas
ured Feeding" by William r. P. Emer-
son, NJ. D., in which each child is asked
to write just exactly what he eats every
day. few simple rules are given for
recording quantities of food by the cup
or tablespoonful
Until the work on the books is done
no individual problems can be attacked,
but there are certain blank rules that
apply to all underweight children. These
sound very simple to the parent of any
we'll brought up child, but are important
for these children chiefly because of the
unanimity with which they are disobeyed
under the ordinary conditions of their
lives.
Rule 1-Underweight children must
not play too hard.
Rule 2-Underweight children should
have hot meal at noon.
Rule 3-Underweight children should
have rest period after luncheon.
Rule 4-Underweight children should
have a lunch in the middle of long
afternoon.
Rule 5-Underweight children should
be kept clean and happy.
1t is easy to see that obedience to
these rules cannot injure any child. The
establishment Of this much routine is
only the matter of a few days. The
coLon1 %o
ings from till IL are spent in free
play under a supervisor supplied by the
Board of Education in a shaded court
yard of the big public school. A hot
lunch is delivered in heated and cooled
containers at IL o'clock by the big cooked
food plant of the Association for I'm
proving the Condition of the Poor. The
children pay cents each for this meal.
After lunch, during. which conversa
tion and slow eating are encouraged,
there are a few moments of play and
then the rest period. For half an hour
all rest and many of them sleep. Then
faces and hands are washed and quiet
occupations follow, suited to the ages of
the groups. There is singing and story
telling, reading and knitting, table games
and cooking classes. Every child has a
chance to choose, and is only interrupted
by the call to afternoon refreshments.
In spite of the hearty midday meal,
o'clock finds almost all of the children
ready to partake of the crackers and
milk. Two glasses of milk apiece is the
ration. At first this seems too much, for
