RED CROSS WAGING
WAR ON DISEASE
Eighteen Health Centers EStab.
liShed in Atlantic Division
Much Educational Work
Carried On.

Substantial Roadway has been made
by the Red Cross chapters in New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut in
forwarding the health program of the
organization since the work was start
ed In the Atlantic Division about nine
months ago, according to reports just
compiled at Division Headquarters,
New York city. Eighteen Red Cross
health c%enters, the establishment Of
which throughout the country is one
of the important features of the ma
tional program, are already in opera
ton in the three states, twelve in New
York, four in New Jersey and two in
Connecticut. Twenty-one more are in
process Of organization.
During the period named the Red
Cross has also assisted in the organ
ization of nine health weeks, nine in
FAINT welfare clinics and four tuber-
culosis clinics, while lao students
divided into eighty-three classes have
received first aid instruction. Noon
hour health talks at 125 factories in
New York city and Vicinity was n
Of the most interesting features of the
summers work. Swimming and life
saving instruction, long n of the
chief activities in the Atlantic Divi-
sion, were given to more than 10000
persons, Red Cross instructors visiting
about one hundred places in the three
states for the purpose of teaching and
preaching water safety. Upwards of
400 demonstrations were given by these
e--pert swimmers.
The establishment Of first aid sta
tons at state and county fairs and
other points where large crowds as
sembled proved to be a practical and
highly appreciated service. Speakers
from the division headquarters dis
cussed the Red Cross health program
at Columbia University, Syracuse Uni
versity, Chautauqua Institute and at
fare organizations.
"The interest Of the American Red
Cross in the fight against disease is
not a new development" says a state
ment from the organizations head
quarters in Washington. Long be-
fore the war the organization began
this health service through its med
icaI units in disaster relief work and
it's department of Town and Country
Nursing. During the war and follow
ing the armistice thousands Of Amer
lean Red Cross officials have been
fighting disease in the war-stricken
countries. At the same time tens Of
thousands of local Red Cross officials
have been engaged at home fighting
disease, notably during the influenza
epidemics.
"The American Red Cross has de-
termined that all this valuable expert
ence in health service abroad and at
home shall not go to waste. So long
as there are a half million people dy-
ing yearly in this country from pre-
ventable causes, and so long as more
than one-third Of tie American chill
dren and young people are victims OF
physical defects, the Red Cross recog-
nizes the urgent need for continued
Red Cross health service at home"

changed IN an instant to one of the
gravest concern.
you mustn't move at ALL" she de-
clared, "and I've talked heaps too
much to you already. I'm going to
leave you. Briggs will bring you your
dinner in an hour" And despite his
weak protests she left him.
But there were other afternoons
afternoons when his gradually increas-
ing strength permitted him to sit up
and talk for hours together to her.
He met her father-a ~gray-haired
example of the old school gentleman
and her mother, q prim. smiling old
lady who made much of him as moth
ers will who have no sOns-but most
of all he enjoyed the long, quiet after
Moons spent with her, listening to her
ripping voice as she talked to him
or read aloud from some book or
other.
It was a gala day when at last he
was allowed to go outdoors. He was
carefully carried down in a huge chair
which was set on the lawn in the late
afternoon sunlight. He drew in a
deep lungful of the tingling air and
exhaled it gratefully.
"Gad!" he exclaimed. "It's good to
see the sky again !"
Constance was with him, tucking the
rug about him, giving him a little
heap of letters and telegrams-mes-
sages from his friends, cO~ngratulating
him on his recovery. He read them
eagerly, hungrily. 1t was good to
have so many people inquiring about
him.
Suddenly it came over him what a
great sacrifice the girl who was sitting
beside him had made for him. In a
wave of tenderness and gratitude he
caught her hand.
"My dear Constance, how can l
ever thank you? You must have ruin
ed your summer waiting on me. II
didn't deserve it. Why, you gave up
everything! You shouldn't have done
it." He still held her hand, and it
came to him that she made no effort
to release it. He looked at her face
and saw the tears in her eyes.
Tit wasn't anything" she said,
turning way to hide her tears. Il
just couldn't help it. Il wanted to
more than anything in my life" She
was frankly sobbing now, and trying
to free her hand. But he chung to it
and drew it toward him.
"Why. Constance, dear-Constance
I didn't know didn't think you
cared like that. Dearest girl, I've
wanted to tell you all along, but !
thought you only pitied me-"
ooh, it was more than that" she
cried. Ever and ever so much more
so much more that"
But it was so much more that she
couldn't say it. Her arms around his
neck told him.

Umbrella Handles.

Lack of variety in umbrella handles
has been notable for the last few
years, and those that are shown for
the coming season are little changed,
SAYS the New York Times. There have
been a few attractive wooden handles
with well-carved dogs heads, but
they were in the small parasols of
short-time use. A French importer
had a variety of handsome umbrellas
or sun umbrellas for women with
smart, carved wooden handles, big
balls or animals heads, which were
reduced in price early in the season,
but which at the % per cent reduc-
ton cost from 500 to $40. These were
carved by soldier artists on the other
side. One of the novelties Of the last
season has been in the form of big,
g~ay-colored silk handbags, with up
right pockets on the inside, in which
were tucked tiny, g%ay-colored folding
parasols, the hinged handles turned

PLAN FOR SATELLITE CITIES
Test of an "AII-Sufficient" Small Com
munity Has Been Set for Near
London, England.

Much interest has been taken
throughout England in a new plan for
the building of a city about twenty
miles from London on model lines.
Under this Welwyn Garden City
scheme it is intended that a town of
ultimately about fifty thousand inhabi-
tants shall be gradually constructed as
a complete unit, with its w factor
les, warehouses, shops and residences,
in contrast to the many districts
which are almost exclusively confined
to dwelling houses for people who go
into the metropolis daily in pursuit of
their livelihood. Such places have
come to be known as dormitory
suburbs, and the new scheme is based
on the theory that the only solution
iof the whole problem of comfortable
housing and convenient transport is to
set up instead what are described as
satellite cities, in the sense that Lon
don itself is the center of all things,
but that within a radius of twenty to
twenty-five miles there should be a
ring of these almost self contained
communities. An interesting feature
of the scheme is that the capital pro-
vided will only receive a maximum
interest of seven per cent, and as the
town is gradually built, any increment
of values arising from the settlement
of the people will be conserved for
their own social advantage.

Nor. GRANDPARENTS Needed

Six times within a year Jerry, of
Muncie, who is six, had acquired a
new aunt or a new uncle by marriage,
the brothers and sisters of his parents
having been married in that period.
At the conclusion of the sixth wedding
he had attended in a comparatively
short time, Jerry sighed heavily as he
remarked to his mother: I'm getting
pretty tired Of getting a new uncle or
aunt every few weeks, I've got enough
now to last me, but what I'd like
would be to get a few new grandmas

the eve days from November IA to
20.
Sunday, November IA, the opening
day, has been designated as Red Cross
Sunday. On this day the message Of
the Red Cross will be sent forth from
the pulpits Of the state, clergymen of
all denominations having agreed to In
clude references to the Roll Call In
their sermons. During the ensuing
seven days, men and women speakers,
many Of them Of national prominence,
will deliver the Red Cross message In
colleges, schoolhouses, clubs and other
places where people assemble. Moving
pictures and slides for stereopticons
pOrtraying Red Cross activities will be
used by many of the speakers. The
Junior Red Cross, with its New Jersey
membership over 100000 strong, will
lend its aid in making the Roll Call
a success, and the Boy Scouts have
pledged themselves for Red Cross week
for the purpose Of doing any work
which may be assigned to them.
New Posters Ready.
Posters graphically illustrating vari-
Gus Red Cross activities are already
beginning to make their appearance,
and in another week will be a familiar
sight in every community. This year
there are twelve of these posters, three
of which are inspirational and the
other nine Informative. OF the former,
a design entitled "Still the Greatest
Mother in the World" by A. z. Form
ger, q w~ell-known New York painter
and illustrator, is perhaps the most sig
nifcant. 1t is a peacetime adaptation
of Mr.. Foringer's "Greatest Mother in
the World" poster, which won approval
the world over. In this new poster,
the ~well-known figure is of heroic size,
holding In one arm q little crippled
child and his crutch, the other arm
p|rotectingly thrown about the Shout
ders of an aged man and woman "The
America of Tomorrow portrays the
community nurse ~brooding over q baby,
symbolic Of the solicitude of the Red
Cross for the health Of the coming
generation. A poster which will have
a universal appeal is the Painting Of
a Child" a tiny tot playing happily
with her toys, presenting a poignant
plea for the millions of less fortunate
babies in Europe.
A committee of ninety-one we'll
known Americans heads. the list of those
working for the Fourth Roll Call, Mo-
vember IA TO 90. Henry P. Dawson,
chairman of the War Council of the

RED CROSS SERVES
542,679 FAMILIES

Members of the Red Cross in Con-
necticut, New York and New Jersey
will be interested to know that during
the past year the Home Service sec
lions Of these three states served 542,-
$40 families in man, different ways.
Most of the services were performed IN
connection with eX-SOldiers and sailors,
helping them to present their claims to
the government. finding employment
for them, helping their families In case
of need or anxiety and in every way
possible protecting the homes OF the
men until they could assume the re-
sponsibility themselves.
The Red Cross has pledged ltselr 10
carry on Home Service Work, acting
as advisor and friend to the thousands
of families in need of guidance and
advice. Former fighting men and cl-
william families who have been aided by
Home Service are among the most
ardent workers for the success OF the
Red Cross Roll Call TO be held Novem

Service Sections in New York; "a IN
New Jersey and SO in Connecticut,
about so of which are already doing O
great deal towards building up home
life. For the frs time in many OF
these places families have some one to
whom they can turn for advice, com

Every community needs an organ

places where no such agency is avail
