AMERICAN RED CROSS
TO GIVE RURAL HELP
Program for Public Health and
Community Welfare Is Now
h, Well Under Way.

Rural communities and towns Of less
than 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
3,6OO Red Cross chapters have some
rural sections In their territory. There
fore the Red Cross Rural Service.
Briefly, the purpose Of Rural Serv-
ice Is 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
biggest needs in rural life. There Is
lack Of sufficient play-life for the chill
dren and social life for the adults.
Picnics, pageants, debating clubs,
baseball leagues. community singing
and other social events which bring
the people Of surrounding communities
together have been organized and car
ried on under the guidance of Red
Gross 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 a 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.
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 is to lend hand everywhere
and take the lead only where neces.

RED CROSS RELIEF
IN CENTRAL EUROPE
&fE.~S &.

But for timely assistance Of the
American Red Cross during the last
year, large proportion of the 10000.
900 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
kaDs-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 ir
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 nipple
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, II
is believed, the people will have ap
preached a normal state of living anG
will be able through their own agencie.
which the Red Cross has helped Sc
up to provide for themselves.
