~ gram. One Is the providing
of scholarship for children of disabled
soldiers, sailors and marines who wish
to attend schools Of the Federal Board
for Vocational Education.
The purpose of the scholarship is to
furnish sum of money to keep chill
dren from fourteen to sixteen years
old out Of industry for few years
longer than family finances permit
and to make 1t possible for them to
have added vocational training to fit
them for self-support.
In this the Red Cross will be CO
operating with the Vocational Board
which has an extensive program well
under way for providing training for
disabled service men,.
The other educational aim of the
Junior Red Cross is to develop among
children of all nations understanding
Of social industrial and commercial
conditions as they exist. and will de-
velop in the future
To meet these needs the Red Cross
has compiled series of graded les
sons which teachers may present to
their pupils in the schools. These deal
with geography, customs, occupations
and other affairs peculiar to each
country and are prepared to give
basic understanding of the world as 1t
is in process of change today.
School teachers who have completed
the standard Red Cross First Aid
course and hold certificate from Ma
tional Headquarters will be qualified
to give this instruction in their
schools this fall.
