m NE of the most interesting o
II u plans to bring prominently be
fore the people of the gulf di
vision the work of the American RED
Cross is in charge of the publicity de
partmept which is arranging to have Red
Cross exhibits at all of the state and
county fairs in Alabama, Louisiana and
Der and October.
There are Go fairs TO be covered. The
plan is to have four complete exhibits
prepared by the publicity department
at division headquarters, and have these
sent to the fairs in the larger centers
throughout the division. Here these ex~
hibits will be set up in cooperation
with the fair authorities who have been
very generous in their donation of space
to the Red Cross. The exhibits will
cover every feature of Red Cross work in
pictorial and legend fashion, and the
Red Cross chapter having jurisdiction
over the territory where the larger fairs
are held will cooperate with the di-
vision and show the individual work
pe1IOIiHSu ny It's own HlculpGiSs
At the larger fairs there will be set
up a miniature office and the chapters
will furnish the volunteer personnel in
the form of active committees compe-
tent to explain the details of each of the
branches of Red Cross work.
The exhibits will include demonstra-
tons in first aid, given on what will be
known as Red Cross Day at the sew
eral fairs, and these demonstrations
hold promise of proving very interesting.
The first aid will be demonstrated by
competent physicians who have ben rep
resenting the division in their respective
territories, and the work of the home
service will be portrayed by trained ex-
ecutive secretaries who have taken in
stitute instruction and are now repre-
senting the chapters Ample provision
will be made not only to visualize Red
Cross work, but home service problems
will be actually handled al the several
miniature offices 1t is hoped that every
attendant at the fairs will embrace the
opportunity to study the Red Cross work
in all of its details. and that proper
understanding will be disseminated as TO
what the Red Cross really hopes to at
tain in it's peace-time programme.

out POPULAR melody, striking just here
and there a correct note, and it mat
