RED CROSS RELIEF
IN CENTRAL EUROPE

But for timely assistance of the
American Red Cross during the last
year, large proportion of the 2O0O0,-
600 population of the Balkan States
might have starved or persisted from
disease or exposure. Six million dol
lars worth of food, clothing and medi-
cal supplies have been sent to the Bal
kans-Roumania, Bulgaria, Albania,
Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia and Greece
since the beginning Of Red Cross re-
lief operations in Central Europe,
while millions of dollars worth Of food
alone has been sent to the needy in
these states.
The money expended by the Red
Cross in this stricken portion Of Eu-
rope has been used to set up hospitals,
orphanages, dispensaries. mobile medi-
cal units and to help in the general re-
construction of devastated areas. Amer
iican tractors and other farming imple-
ments have been sent to the agricul-
tural regions where aid has been CIV
en- in blowing the land.
BY the last Of this year probably
all American Red Cross agencies ad-
ministering relief In Central Europe
will have withdrawn. By that time, 1t
is believed, the people will have ap-
preached a normal state of living and
will be able through their own agencies
which the Red Cross has helped set
up to provide for themselves.

Community Service association, Judge
Wilson said
1t is the purpose of the association
to demonstrate that an organized pro-
gram of community betterment and
cooperation is a valuable force from
the standpoint of the small town, the
rural district, large city and state as
a whole.
Rural Problems to Be Faced.
1.-THE great problem before us to-
day is the depletion of population in
the small towns and rural districts to
build up the large Cities" Judge Will
SON said. Higher wages, shorter
hours of service and greater oppor-
tunities for recreation are attracting
young people to the large cities and
away from the solitude and limited op-
portunities for life out on the farm.
ct is the aim of the community
service movement to get people to rea-
lie that their interests are common
The business man in the city is just
as concerned with conditions in the
country as though he lived in the
country, and likewise, the farmer is
Just as concerned with questions Oh
distribution in the city as the city
dweller."

RED CROSS ACTIVE
IN DISASTER RELIEF

When disaster hits a community
fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, bad
wreck or tornado-the American Red
Cross can be depended upon to follow
right at its heels with help for the
stricken people. Red Cross relief Is
almost Immediately forthcoming-food,
clothing, shelter and funds; doctors,
nurses and special workers with long
experience In handling similar trouble
elsewhere.
During the last year, ending June 80,
there was an average Of four disasters
a month in the United States. One
hundred and fifty communities in
twenty-seven states suffered. The
largest and most destructive of these
were the tidal wave at Corpus Christi,
Texas, and tornadoes In Mississippi,
Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Ohio
Indiana and Illinois.
In these events of horror $50 per-
sons were killed, 1900 were injured,
$4,000 were made homeless, about 3d.
600 families needed help, the property
loss was nearly $100,000,000 and al
most 100000 in relief funds, not in
Guiding emergency supplies was ex-
pended.
To the sufferers from all disasters
during the year, the American Red
Cross sent $4,000 worth of sup
plies, 40 Red Cross nurses and seven
special relief trains. To meet the
needs of the stricken, the organization
set up ten relief stations, operated
thirty food canteens and as many
emergency hospitals. One hundred
and twenty-five Red Cross chapters
gave disaster relief service.
II disaster ever strikes this town or
county, the citizens can be absolutely
sure the Red Cross will be right on
hand to help them In every way.

Greece is at war with Turkey, over
$4,000 men being engaged in the

land, nearly 100000 men being en-
gagged in the fighting; England is at
war with Turkey; civil war is raging
in Crimea; there is civil war in Chi
ma; the French are fighting the Turks
and Arabs in Asia Minor; the British
are engaged in a war with the tribes
men of Mesoptami; the Lithuanians
are fighting the Poles; according to a
special dispatch to the New York
Herald there are 10 fronts strongly
held by armed forces of various ma
tions where although fighting is not
now active it may break out at any
time. Yet friends of the league of
nations would have it appear that the
league is now functioning and only
needs the United States to stop all
war. Can you believe it? Or do they
want this country to send men to all
parts of the world to make 'em quit
fighting? Choose ye.-Rockville

Well Under Way.

Rural communities and towns Of less

can Red Cross. Almost all of the
S,6D Red Cross chapters have some
rural sections in their territory. There

Briefly, the purpose of Rural Serv-
Ice 1s to assist people to get out Of life
more health, wealth and happiness. In
this purpose public health instruction
and general educational progress OF
both children and adults play a big
part.
Recreation is found to be one Of the
Z biggest needs in rural life. There is
lack OF sufficient play-life for the chill
1cen and social life for the adults.
Onsnios, pageants, debating clubs,
leagues, community singing
social events which bring

epHYeer have been organized and car
rled on under the guidance of Red
Cross rural workers to great advan-
tage. In many instances solving rec
reational problems and getting people
together proves to be the awakening
of the community to other conditions
which may be improved by united
action.
AS result Of community organiza-
ton, townships in which there had
been neither plans nor interest In
community progress have been organ
lied to work together with the unified
purpose Of bringing their community
up to the most enlightened standards.
Lecture and musical entertainment
courses have been started as q result
OF community meetings, AS well as cir
culating libraries, Red Cross schools of
instruction in Home Nursing, Care Of
the Sick and First Aid. In the larger
towns the need for restrOoms and pub
lie comfort stations is being met Play
grounds for the children have been
established and recreational activities
worked out for the year.
