Red Cross Extension

Officials Of the Southern division 81
the American Red Cross are now plan
ming the most extensive campaign OF
activity yet undertaken by the world S
greatest organization for humanl-
tartan service. The extensive nature
of this program is made possible by
the success of the roll call, concluded
on Thanksgiving day.
All reports are not yet in, but the
reports that have been received cleal
ly indicate that despite national busl-
ness depression and the particularly
uncertain condition Of the South's
finances, the people Of the South have
realized the Importance OF maintain
ing the Red Cross organization. and
it's permanent peace time program.
Assurances are given that not only
will the present chapter work be MAIN
tanned throughout the division, but in
many instances It will be enlarged
The numhG1. al visiting nurses will be
1nairtaincl. vale home service par
ticularlr - vaG veterans and the
mcTbcrr s: cir families will be car
ried 81 ), & broader lines even than
during Sast year. z, .-,.g ::
In short, the Red Cross has now had
assurance Of sustained public sup
port which will permit OF stabilized,
systematic program, bringing the
greatest amount of good TO the great
est number of people in each COM
munity, yeaer in and year out.
1t was a noteworthy fact, in con-
nection with the roll call that what
ever the Red Cross workers came in
most intimate contact with the people
of community, that community re-
sponded to the roll call appeal in the
greatest ratio.
This was particularly true in the
small isolated settlement, where the
Red Cross chapter was the one or
ganization for social service, and
where the Red Cross nurse was not
only nurse, but teacher, and sometimes
spiritual adviser Of the entire neigh
borhood.
Means were small in these little
settlements but the response to the
Red Cross appeal was more than gen
erous.
