AMERICANS ABROAD
IN RED CROSS WORK
United States Citizens Far Away
Enthusiastic Members Of the
"Fourteenth" Division.

Among the most enthusiastic and
energetic members of the American
Red Gross are those citizens Of the
United States who live outside the
continental boundaries of their country
sons and sdaughters Of the Stars and
Stripes residing at the far corners OF
the earth.
These people compose the Insular
and Foreign Division Of the parent or
ganization, generally known as the
Fourteenth Division, which has
jurisdiction Of all territory outside
the country proper; that is, Alaska,
Porto Rico, Hawaii, Virgin Islands, the
Philippines, Guam, and even the is
land of zap, which came under our
dag as result of The world war. For
the year 1920 this division reported
3O,808 paid up members. e.
The main object Of this division ii
to give our citizens everywhere the op'
portunity to participate in the work
Of the organization which stands fol-
the best national ideals. Americans
In far places intensely loyal and pa
tr1otic. treasure their membership IL
tho Red Cross as the outward ex'
preston Of their citizenship. It IL m
other tie to the homeland and ia
each other. There are chapters Of
this division in Argentine, Bolivia
Brazil, Canal zone, Chile. China, Costs
Rica,* Cuba, Dominican Republic
+ Ecuador, England, France, Guam,
Guatemala, Haiti, Hawaii. Honduras
Japan. Manchuria, Netherlands, Mica
ragua, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines
Porto Rico. Siberia, Spain. Sweden
Switzerland. Syria, Turkey, Uruguay
Venezuela and Virgin Islands.
|. During the war these scattered
members Of the Red Cross contrib
uted millions in money, and millions
Of dollars worth Of necessary articles
for the men In service, and sent many
doctors and nurses to France. At the
same time they carried on an excel.
lent Home Service in their respective
communities for the families of those
who had gone to war, and in some re-
gions gave. large sums Of money and
Unreasonable personal service to the
relief Of disaster and disease victims.
The division is now establishing
service clubs in foreign ports for the
benefit Of sailors in the American Ner-
chant Marine, making plans to aid
Americans in trouble in foreign lands
and completing arrangements for CIV
ing immediate adequate relief In case
Of disaster.
It is the Fourteenth Divisions part
in the great Peace Time program OF
the American Red Cross.

RED CROSS ASSISTS
DISABLED VETERANS

The American Red Cross is carrying
on q wide program Of service for the
disabled World War veterans receiving
treatment in United States Public
Health hospitals, and those being train
ed through agencies Of the Federal
Board for Vocational Education.
In each Of the Public Health Service
hospitals Red Cross workers devote
their time to the general welfare Of
the service men from the day they
enter the receiving ward until they
are discharged. After the soldiers dis
charge the Red Cross continues it's
friendly! service through the Home
Service Section in his own community.
The Red Cross maintains GONZALES
cent house at all Of the hospitals,
where patients can amuse themselves
after they are well enough to be up
and around. Parties ahd picture shows
in.the wards are also furnished, with
occasional excursions when GONZALES
cence comes.
= Great service has been rendered BY
the Red Cross In mental cases in iden-
trying those who have appeared In
state. hospitals for the insane, and help
ing them secure compensation due from
the Bureau Of War Fisk Insurance.:
In the Federal Boards various dis:
trict offices the Red Cross worker, act
ing with the Home Service Section,
makes necessary loans to the men,: ar
ranges suitable living conditions, helps
collect evidence and supply facts to the
Board, assists in "appealing cases" and
settles various personal difficulties for
the men. The workers ALSO follow up
and aid all men who discontinue train
ing. -
The Red Cross agents and men ~lost'
to the Board, help clear up delayed
cases and aid the college counselors in
their friendly work with the men.
Many Red Cross chapters have set up
recreation facilities, and in some in
stances living clubs, so these victims
of war may have attractive surround
ings and the fun which must 60 with
effective school work.
To the American Red Cross Institute
for the Blind near Baltimore, Nd,
more than half of all: the Americans

for training. The Institute, through
the Red Cross, long ago conducted an
exhaustive industrial survey to deter

men could be fitted. AS result it is

JUNIOR RED CROSS
~ ACTIVE IN EUROPE

Garden seeds for Polish orphans,
pnik for anaemic Greek babies, car
penters' tools for Czecho- Slovakian
cnpples-these are only a few Of the
gifts that young Americans are send
Ing to the war-crushed children of the
Old World.
Through the Junior Red Cross the
boys and girls Of the United States
are giving fresh start In life to little
war orphans scattered all over Europe.
They have set up orphans homes In
France, school colonies in Belgium and
Montenegro, and day schools 10 Al
bania.
They are sending dozens Of young
S3Tians, Montenegr1ns, and Albanians
to American colleges In Constant inople
ana Beirut, and maintaining more than
4 hundred orphans Of French soldiers
at colleges and trade schools. In or
phanages and farm schools up and
down the peninsula Of Italy there are
Yearly 600 wards Of American Juniors.
Last winter a thousand French chill
dren from the inadequate shelters Of
the 'devasted regions were sent by the
Junior Red Cross to spend the cold
months in warmer parts Of France.
at the same time I've thousand little
Belgtans were having 2 hot lunch every
day at Junior Red Cross school can

American school children have al.

AMERICAN RED CROSS
TO GIVE RURAL: help
Program for Public Health and
Community Welfare Is Now
Well Under Way.

Raral communities and towns Of less
thal 5000 population benefit in a very
large part by the public health and
community welfare work Of the Ameri-
cAn Red Cross. Almost all Of the
a,ono Red Cross chapters have some
rural sections in their territory. There
fore the Red Cross Rural Service.
Briefly, the purpose Of Rural Serv-
leo - to assist people to get out Of life
more health, wealth and happiness. In
this purpose public hearth instruction
and general educational progress Of
beth children and adults play big
part.
Recreation is found to be one Of the
biggest needs in rural life. There is
lack Of sun,c'ent play-life for the chill
dren and social life for the adults.
P'~nics, pageants, debating clubs,
baseball leagues, community singing
ard ether social events which bring
the people Of surrounding communities
together have been organised and car
rlod on under the guidance Of Red
Gross rural workers to great advan-
tAse. 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
actien.
Al 4 result Of community organiza-
ton, townships in which there had
been neither plans nor interest in
community progress have been organ.
1zed 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 4 result
Of community meetings, a. well as cir:
cuhting 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 recreat1onal activities
worked out for the year.
= In order that there may be concerted
effort in carrying on the programs Of
the various welfare agencies in the
rural districts. Red Cross Rural Serv-
; ice helps the organizations already on
the ground. The main object Of the
service il to lend a hand everywhere
and take the lead only where neces-
Sary.
