FIRST AID Training
TO MEN AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds Of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.

The purpose Of instruction in First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross is 70 train men and
women to>admnister First Aid treat
ment promptly and intellgently when
emergencies demand IT, First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place of a physicians services A sur
geon should always be summoned as
d precautionary measure where there
is an injury Of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured few min
utes' delay may mean a fatality. In
such q case a person trained in First
Aid Is invaluable not only to the in.
dividual, but through him to the com.
munity in which he lives.
There is perhaps no way Of ascer-
tanning the number Of deaths or seri-
GUS disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appll-
cation Of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY Tighten tho
country's toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination Of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
duced a farreaching and beneficial In
fluence in the prevention Of accidents
on railroads. in mines and in great In
dustrial concerns.
The benefit Of widespread knowI"
edge Of First Aid in the event Of
great disaster, such as train wreck,
an explosion, ali earthquake, etc., Is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
~ the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, of classes for in.
struction in accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men
and women in all communities and In
every industry; (2) the introduction Of
courses of instruction In high schools
and colleges.
The Red Cross is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea-
sonable prices
Every person in this country able to
do so should, in his own interest, re-
celve Red Cross First Aid instruction.
Information about the course and in
struction classes may be had at the
nearest chapter headquarters.

TO SICK AND NEEDY IN TOWN and COUNTRY
PUBLIC HEALTH nurse IS REAL GOD-SEND
Red Cross Placed Nurses In Southern Communities
And Hopes to Increase Number Through
Fourth Roll Call

the Clarke County Red Cross nurse.
about her work recently, and was
not only interested in what she had
to tell me, but aroused as to my own
responsibilities in the matter OF hcalth.
had an idea that Miss Crawford's
duties as county nurse consisted In
going about nursing charity cases. But
no, indeed. That just shows how ig-
norant was of the sort Of an invest.
ment l had made with my Red Cross
dollar.
Miss Crawford works on the theory
that an ounce of prevention is worth
q pound of cure. She says she has
not time for what seems to be tech
nically known as bedside nursing"
When anyone in the county Is taken
sick, Miss Crawford will go into the
home and show the members Of the
family how to nurse the patient. She
will stay perhaps two hours at time,
and for such a visit you may pay her
q quarter or fifty cents, or even tif-
teen cents, if you prefer not to accept
charity, and she will explain to you
what is needed in the case Of the
particular illness you are nursing and
help you with the first steps.
In Tuckston and Oconee Heights she
has organized regular classes in home
nursing. These classes meet once
week in Oconee Heights, once every
two weeks in Tuckston, and Miss Craw-
ford shows her pupils, at their leisure
and under more favorable circum.
stances than when there is actual ILL
ness, the same things that she shows
the housekeeper when she Is called
into a home where there Ia sickness.
In East Athens she has q Little
Mothers Club, where she is teaching
.EAese same things to the girls.
And last Saturday she started a
Health Center in Winterville. She
told me they were going to start q
Health Center next week in East Ath-
ems.
And in giving dollar last Decem-
Der to help finance this undertaking,
/ feel that you made a good invest
meht. Don't you?
The Southern Division Of the Red
Cross has placed seventy-four public
health nurses in the five states of
North and South Carolina, Tennessee,
Georgia and Florida. A successful
Fourth Roll Call will make it possible
to continue the work Of these nurses
and to add to them many others for
similar service throughout the divi-
sion. L -

RED CROSS EXTENDS !"
RELIEF TO POLAND

More than S5,000000 has been spent
by the American Red Cross in aiding
the stricken people Of Poland. The
organization has nurged the sick, fed
the starving, clothed the naked, shelter
ed the homeless, schooled the children
and cared for the orphans there. 1t has
conducted relentless fight against
typhus, cholera and other terrible dis.
eases. So today millions Of men and
women in that resurrected nation
speak in grateful appreciation Of 1.-THE
Greatest Mother in the World"
Nearly 200 American Red Cross
workers are now engaged in relief &C
tiyities in Poland. -Four large relie1
bases are In operation and eleven mo
bile units are in the field During the
last twelve months this Organization
was largely instrumental in the re-eS
adjustment of a million refugees at
cost for general relief Of more than
81 600 900. Last winter one-half MIL
lion war orphans were aided materials
lv. and since then a series Of large or
phanages have been established to give
them permanent care. 4

ratus for measuring undernourished
children; here talks are made to moth
ers about the proper care OF their ba'
bies. The hall is fitted UP as a wait
ing room with health posters on the
walls and health literature for distri-
button to all who are interested. The
room on the right Is an emergency
hospital fitted up with five beds and
q crib for the very small patients.
And at the back is the nurses private
office, which is also the operating
room, fitted with real operating ta-
BILE and a dentists chair.
Weighing and measuring children
of school and pre-school age was one
of the first things undertaken at the
center. Children VINO were under
sized and Gnder-weight were advised
as to their diet, and so eager were
they to gain the pounds and inches
that would make them normal that
they readily consented to substitute
milk for the coffee and tea they We're
accustomed to drink.
Miss Harry next turned her atten-
ton to the care Of the teeth. At her
request, dentist came over the noun"
tains from Franklin and stayed for
ten days and was busy for every min
ute of that time, finding several seri-
Gus cases of pyorrhoea among fifteen
and sixteen year old children. Miss
Harrys dental clinic will be respon-
sible for saving these teeth. Later,
an eye, ear, nose and throat specialist
followed the dentist and number
of operations for tonsils and adenoids
were performed at the Health Center,
the patients and their mothers being
kept overnight in the emergency hos
pital Both clinics will be more or
less regular matter from now on.
In addition to her work at the health
center, Miss Harry has done visiting
nursing all over the mountains, some
times walking four or five miles 90
see one patient One woman, the
mother of ten children, who has not
been out of bed for several years, has
already been taken to Charlotte for
serious operation, Miss Harry accom-
panying her on the journey as she
had never been on the train before.
But the value Of Red Cross pub
lie health nurse is not limited to re-
mote rural communities, as the fol-
lowing extracts from report made
by woman of Athens, Ga, who in
terested herself in the work OF the
Red Cross nurse employed by the
Clarke County Chapter will show. The

An the time approaches for the
Fourth Roll Call Of the American Red
Cross, which takes place from Novem'
Der II to rs, many people all over
the country are asking how their last
years membership fees have been
spent and what are the organizations
plans for the future. Full statements
have been made from time to time,
and the financial records of the Red
Cross both In the chapters and for ma
tional work are always open to the
public, but many people have neither
time nor inclination to study them,
and the simple statement that public
health nursing is one of the most i'm
portant phases Of the Red Cross pro-
gram means little to person who has
no. made special study OF the work.
It is necessary to understand just
what q Red Cross public health nurse
means to some specific community to
realize the importance of what the or
ganization is doing. Take the little
mountain town OF Highlands, N. c.,
for instance, a summer resort with a
winter population Of about three hun
bred people, situated on table-iand
on the side of mountain, eighteen
miles from a railroad over roads that
are practically impossible for about
eight months in the year. Highlands
has no hospital, no dentist, no trained
nurses and only one physician, but
It has a Red Cross chapter. And last
year the Red Cross Chapter applied
for a public health nurse, that is.
graduate trained nurse who has taken
special postgraduate training i'll pub
lie health work. The Nursing Depart
ment Of the Southern Division sent
Miss Margaret Harry, a nurse who
had been trained under a Red Cross
scholarship and who thoroughly I'M
Serstood mountain conditions, to fill
the place.
One of Miss Harry's first moves af-
ter she became acquainted with the
DeopIe and won their confidence was
10 open q Health Center. Health Cen
ter is another term that means little
to the person who has not seen one
in operation. The Red Cross Health
Center at Highlands Is the lower floor
OF the Masonic Temple, donated, rent
free, by the Masons for that purpose.
It is separated into three rooms and
4 hall by partitions which. Miss Harry
built herself because of the scarcity
Of labor. One of the rooms is a rest
room and general clinic. Here are
the scales for weighing and the appa'
