RED CROSS NOTES.

Now that the war is practically over, the Red Cross is planning many peace-time activities, the first of which is Health Campaign, under the direction of the government. This is to be put on through the Junior Red Cross with the assistance of teachers and parents.
 Sacrifice and Service" has been the spirit of the Red Cross and we are asked to do our part in carrying zn the peacetime activities.
 The draft for the Army took men It the age of greatest strength, yet i1isease and other physical defects caused the rejection of over thirty per cent of the men examined for the Army. Almost all this weakness was due to sickness or abuse of health that might have been prevent "a. Tn almost all cases, failure to acquire good health habits in child hood was responsible. The draft revelations determined the govern nent that such situation should not overtake us again in the future. To back up this determination we must begin with the children who are now in the schools. Never before was there such time as the present for driving home the lessons of personal hygiene. We must strike while the iron is hot. The call to health ser vice is an emergency call.
 The men who were admitted to the Army camps were taught how to grow stronger and to keep well. Ev- cry day they were obliged to do things that helped to prevent disease from getting hold of them. They were out of doors a large part of each day. They had to get to bed early

for long sleep. They were obliged to keep clean. They exercised prac- tically all the muscles of their bodies under systematic drills. They were given nourishing food of variety to meet the needs of their bodies. Our young men who took this training be- came soldiers who were the admira- tion of all the allies when they went to the front lines, in France.
 The lessons taught by this is that school children should be taught and drilled, in the ways of health, that made the soldiers strong so that they may be successful in their life-work.
 The government is putting on a great health campaign and has asked the assistance of the Red Cross to help make it success. School teach CTS are in peculiarly advantageous position to promote children's health, and the country is now calling on the schools to impart knowledge and habits, in particular ways.
 A set of health rules are to be ob- served, and to give the child a motive for patient work in acquiring good health habits an organization has been devised that will appeal to every child. It is called the Modern Health Crusade. It transfers some of the romance of the Medieval Cru sader to a vital quest of present-day children. It holds up to them the chivalryrof health. It gives the boys and girls something to do and hon. ors to earn. It grips their interest

until health practices become habit
 ual These are the eleven health
 rules or chores, which must be prac- ticed:
 1. l washed my hands before each
 meal today.
 2. l washed not only my face, but
 my ears and neck and I cleaned my finger nails today. 8. I tried to keep fingers, pencils
 and everything that might be unclean
 out of my mouth and nose. 4. I drank glass of water before
 each meal and on going to bed, and drank no tea or coffee nor other in- furious drinks today I brushed my teeth thoroughly in the morning and evening, to-day. 6. took ten or more slow, deep breaths of fresh air today. 2. I played outdoors or with the windows open more than thirty min utes today.
 8. I was in bed @ ten hours or more last night annd kept my window open. (') Boys and firls 13 years of age may change this to g hours. Those under years should sleep Il hours at least.
 g. I tired today to sit up and stand up straight, to eat slowly, and to at tend to my toilet and to each need of my body at it's regular time. 10. I tried today to keep neat and cheerful constantly and to be helpful
 to others.
 II. I took bath twice this week These score caIus are to be signed by both child and parent and the teacher must be satisfied by the child's cleanliness from day to day and by other signs that the child is doing the chores thoroughly before
 he has the right to the titles given or to certificate.
 We are hoping that both child and l parents will take great interest m this movement. The above rules though simple, if practiced, will lead to good health.
 Seventy-two chores done in one week makes a perfect record. To be- come a Modern Health Crusader and | receive a certificate of Enrolment, and the title of Page in Health Knighthood, one must do at least fifty-four chores each week for two weeks. To rise to the higher ranks and be entitled to the different cer- tificates one must do at least fifty four chores each week for the fol lowing number of weeks:
 For Knight, a five weeks after be-
 coming Squire, total of ten weeks.
 For Knight Banneret, five weeks af-
 ter becoming Knight, total of fiji
 teen weeks.
 Let us all make an effort to make this campaign success and to help
 establish in the lives of the children of Jackson county health habits
 which will be of lifelong benefit to
 them.

When in 1917 Maria Botchkareva

Here she tells her own story. The
first installments told of her child
hood and marriage. Forced to leave
her husband because of his Jealousy,
she joins an infantry regiment. She
sees fighting, is decorated for BRAY
cry and is shocked to see signs of
treachery among the higher officers
of the Russian command. She was
severely wounded in the battle of

The banker gasped as he saw her fin
gers lift magnificent triple chain of dia-
.hOnds, bearing a pendant of the same
stones clustered about huge ruby This
necklace alone was, he knew, worth much
more than what Nine Humbert owed him.
And so. letting the sparkle of the diamonds
blind his better judgment, he assured her
that he would be delighted to make her a
further loan.
Singularly enough. the woman who
was able to deceive astute fnanciers IN
this barefaced way was quite lacking IN
education, good looks and anything re-
sembling charm. Of all the fascinating
qualities which enabled women like Lam
telme and Mile. Marsy to captivate the
hearts of men she had not trace.
Short, stout and yellow skinned, she
looked more like a serubwoman than q
leader of wealth and fashion. She was
further handicapped by a provincial ae-
cent, something of lisp and a thin, weak
voice, that seemed out of place IN so lat
