Seeretary's Report


The end of the year 1920 finds the
peace-time work of the Red Cross firm
ly established under the local chapter
and proven necessity in the life OF
the community. Reports of the vari-
GUS committees which will follow. re-
veal very substantial service render
ed to the entire county.
The three outstanding pieces OF
work accomplished this year are:
/. The establishment, through an
agreement with the Woman's Chris
tian Association. of permanent chap
ter headquarters on the property OF
the Home for the Aged, East Sugar
street. This step was necessitated by
inability to find quarters for the clin-
les and health center which are an i'm
portant part of the Red Cross health
work. The present neat and conven-
lent little headquarters will furnish IA
cilities for all departments of the chap
ter work and give permanence to the
DlAuS IudL are uCVClOpCu.
The chapter executive committee, in
September, formally rendered the use
of this clinic to both the city and
county boards of health and it is the
earnest desire of this committee that
this building may serve the entire
county in the interests of better
health.
must not neglect to state that the
sale of Christmas Seals in Knox
county furnished the funds for this
health center. Accumulated sales
1914, 1918, 1917, 1919 sales-$1,574.12,
of which $1,249.00 remained here as
Knox county's share. The establish
ment of clinics is one of the most ap-
proved fields OF expenditure for Christ
mas seal money.
2. The second important piece of
work of this year is the extension of
Home Service, which formerly was
given only to service men and their
families, to include all families in the
chapter territory. Effort has been
made to coordinate relief work among
the various agencies in the community
. in such way as to avoid dangerous
Implications. In January. 1920, the
Knox County Ministerial Association
voted to carry on the local relief work
through the Red Cross Home Service
department as clearing house" and
other agencies have done the same.
That means, simply, that when fam
lily or individual is reported as need
ing relief, the case is turned over to
the Chapter Home Service worker,
Miss Alice Patterson, and she immed-
lately makes an investigation of all
the circumstances connected with the
case after which she refers it to the
proper agency for care; perhaps the
Red Cross may gnd it necessary to
give hospital care, or some church
have claim to assist in the emergen-
CIV, or, again, 1t may be a clear case
for help from the county, or Moth.
er's Pension solve the family difficult
/. ty. In any case the attempt is to make
the relief systematic, to correct the
cause of the difficulty, and to avoid
duplication of agencies for the same
family at the same time.
Especial attention is being given to
the child welfare side Of the civilian
relief work.
s. The third outstanding piece of
work was the establishment of Pub
, lie Health Nursing Service for Knox
county. This work began Nov. !. 1913,
when Mrs. Anna M. Beverley, Red
Cross nurse Of unusual ability, came
to Mt. Vernon In the employ OF the

Twenty-four machines and 80 EN-

on South Main street.
Twelve of the machine girls have
reached the stage where they are
turning out first-class work for the
company, and Manager Jones stated
today that none of it has been return

weeks, just as soon as. the IL girls
now learning are able to turn out
first-class garments
The Mt. Vernon factory is receiv-

PRESS OF SWEDEN
PRAISES PARLEY
Newspapers Generally Of
Opinion That Results
Will Be Achieved.
BY Hal O'FLAHERTY.

By Wireless to The Star and Chicago Daily
Nsws Copyright. 1921.
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, December 2.
With the exception Of the most
radical elements the Swedish news
pap paper. express the highest satisfac-
ington conference. The Svenska
Dagbladet declares that Secretary
Hughes program IL OF greater inn
portance than that contained in any
document emanating from the league
Of nations "If," says the paper,
every single document issued by the
league regarding the reduction Of
armament is thoroughly read, not
one-tenth as extensive program as
that presented by Hughes can be
found, nor is 1t presented with one
the Hughes program to the world can
be gauged only by historians"
Premier Branting's former journal.
the Social Demokraten, declares that
the first weeks OF the conference were
characterized by sober and practical
points Of view.
'"rhe Washington meeting" 1t says,
proceeds with such calmneaH and Is
10 free from illusions that 1t must
bring results" Stockholm's Dagblad
although pessimistio regarding the
eventual results. finds reason to
praise the work so far. THE Wash
has aroused the appreciation Of Eu-
rope despite our grave doubts as to
the worlds desire for peace. This un-
derlying desire shows signs of max
ing itself felt in the United States"
Danish newspapers also praise the
results thus far obtained at the WASH
