believes that through health centers
established in every considerable
community throughout the United
States, health can be safeguarded and
therefrom greater happiness be
brought to our people.
Ignorance of diseases, ignorance as
to what are the best means to pursue
in combating them, ignorance as to
the standing and competency of GER
tain medical men-these today are
responsible for vast number OF
deaths in the world. Quacks prey
upon our people with their glaring
and lying advertisements and in hun
dreds of thousands OF cases individ-
uals absolutely deceived by their pre-
tensions pass beyond the days when
their infirmities might be cured. For
these perils the Red Cross health
center forms a safeguard.
The health centers being established
become the peoples clubs, with mem
berships designed to reach vast num-
bers of the population since member
ship costs but 81 year-the annual
Red Cross dues.
Another phase of the peace-time pro
gram of the organization which rapid
ly is becoming of paramount value in
the northwest Is comprised in the
Home Service activities. Designed
originally for the benefit solely OF
disabled service men and their fam
lilies. 1t has grown to occupy FAR
broader field. Red Croas welfare
workers look to the interests of for
mer soldiers and sailors In hospitals
and schools; maintain personal con-
tact with the disabled who are at
home. Home Service forms the con
Meeting link between the disabled man
In hospital or school and his family.
But Home Service has grown be-
yond this. In nearly 40 OF the lO6
chapters of the Northwestern DIVISION
experienced social workers are EN-
ployed, and the service Is being ex'
tended to civilian families. In some
chapters information stations for the
benefit of the general public nave
been established. In Raymond
Washington, the Home Service depart
ment maintains an office close to the
railway stations and hotels where any
day may be seen the visitor inquiring
for the residence of friend. or the
genial travelling man asking the loca
ton of the business house upon which
he wants to call.
Social Service extends down through
the chapters to the branches and aux
iliaries. Several Northwestern chap
tiers have branches which maintain
local Home Service operatives. theii

HEALTH CENTERS AID
ALL COMMUNITY LIFE
Home Service Work Broadens
to Include Civilian
Families.
BY DIR. ]. f. CREIGHTON
Manager Northwestern Division
American Red Cross


An integral part of the great health
program Of the American Red Cross,
many of the war activities of the Or
ganization, is the establishment Of
Health Centers-which now are being
installed In many communities
throughout the northwest. Ii Is u
movement of compelling interest to
the citizens of this part of the country.
The health center as organized by
the Red Cross is proving the greatest
preventive medicine known, as well as
protection of great value in times OF
widespread illness or epidemic. From
health centers radiate all kinds of
healthful influences from the giving
OF proper advice and the furnishiIs OF
competent nursing, medical and sur
gical aid, to the inauguration of many
forms of beneficial exercises such as
community singing athletics and out.
door games. From health centers go
the visiting nurses. There are held
the teaching classes for home nursing,
children's clinics and proper welfare
work.
The Red Cross says that no longer
shall durable physical deformities
curse the lives OF our children. 1t
believes the time is past when tuber-
cuosis should be allowed without
hndrance to fasten itself upon the
tender bodies OF our little ones. II

SAFETY IN REPUBLICAN PLANS.

Orators and theorists can tell you offhand how
to reconstruct the country's business. They would
revolutionze the industries with their experiments
But they never satisfied to work things out by
gradual degrees. They want to do everything at
once.
And usually when they get chance to try out
their nostrums, they find that for some practical
reason that never occurred to them, their ideas
won't work, and leave conditions worse than they
were before
The practical business man is never afraid to try
experiments He is trying them all the time. But
he does not try them out a revolutionary scale
until he has tested them out smaller scale.
The democratic administration and democratic

knowing what they are doing
They asserted, for instance, that they could take

management could, and make the government op.

BASEBALL A CLEAN CAME.

The killing of the shortstop of the Cleveland ball
team by pitched ball hitting his head. is said to be
the first accident of the kind in the history of the
major leagues.
Considering what an amazingly short time II
takes for swift ball to travel from the pitcher to
the batter, and how impossible 1t is to estimate the
track of the curved sphere, it is astonishing how
few such accidents there Nervous pitchers fire.

control But these stars of the diamonds have a
lightning quickness that enables them to dodge most
anything. Less skfu players get hit more fire.
quenty.
1t is the beauty of the game that it keeps so
clear of the brutal elements that enter into many
other sports. There mighty few in the
game who would deliberately hit a player in the
head. even if hard fought struggle could be won
by disabling a dreaded opponent.
Here and there of course hears of a player
being deliberately Spiked" But such an incident
does not occur among professional or semi-profes-
sonal players, but among small class of rough
nccks who try to make up for lock of playing ability
by their crooked work But as a whole baseball
is marvelously clean game. 1t is kind of scien-
tfic game of chess magnifed SCALE in which
brains and delicate degree of manual skill out

No sport is wholly without peril. Baseball has,
perhaps, less danger than any other The catcher
who years ago stood up behind the batter without
any mask, took serious risks. But there was never
any lack Of players willing officate in that star
position.

NATIONAL REPUBLICAN SUCCESS.

There is no difference of opinion among New
Mexico republicans to the desirabiHty of the
election of Harding and Coolidge, Even hundreds
democrats in the state, who are strongly for Judse
Hanna for governor, are tired of the democratic
regime and afraid of Governor Cox. Many of these
will support Harding.
There is no similarity between the issues in the
nation and in the state. 1t is entirely possible for
New Mexico citizen to be out of harmony with the
policy and practices of the republican organization
in the state and yet be in whole-hearted sympathy
with Mr.. Harding and his policies
Any man who were he living in Iowa Illino s.
would support the republican national ticket should
however dissatisfied he may be with the local re-
publican situation.
While local conditions are clarifying themselves
and republicans striving to find their proper
position upon state matters, there should be no
creeping in of uncertainty TO national questions
which entirely different matter.
Whit the Journal may not feel that the present
national campaign is the most important in the his
tory of the United States, as is so often said by
speakers in their enthusiasm, yet do feel that
the peace, prosperity and happiness of the people
will be augmented by the election of Harding and
Coolidge, and that they should be undoubtedly sup.
ported
Our efforts to convince the public of the de-
STABILITY of national republican success will be ex-
pended in constructive arguments and not in satire
or personal abuse of democratic friends and
their candidate for president
This does not that we are not wholly con-
WINGED of the wisdom of success for Mr.. Harding
We are convinced beyond question.

Harry W. Kelly, head of the
large wholesale firm of Gross
Kelly & Co.. has been named as re-

Miguel and Guadalupe counties.
Mr. Kelly was a member of the
constitutional convention, and has

served by Senator John S. Clark
of this city since statehood. 1t is
rumored that Senator Clark may be
nominated for the San Miguel
county district, now represented by
Senator Roman Gallegos of San
Jose. Luis Armiio, whose name
was placed before the state con-
vention as candidate for nomina-
ton for governor, has beeen named
as the candidate for district attor-
ney for the Fourth judicial district,
including Mora, San Miguel and
Guadalupe counties. Mr.. Armijo
is we'll known young lawyer.
