Junior Red Cross Doing Wonder
full Work Among the Young

PUSH GOSPEL OF CLEANLINESS
Children Literally Floated to Health
and Happiness on Seas Of suds--
More Than 10000 Instructed IN
Use Of Soap and Toothbrush.

Washington. - Under ordinary cir
cumstances cake of soap or tooth
brush would constitute queer calling
card or letter Of introduction. and YET
they have served the purpose Of intro
ducing the school children of America
to the boys and girls Of Czecho-Slo-
vakia. Through the Junior Red Cross,
the school children's branch Of the
American Red Gross, the gospel of
cleanliness and health has been car
ried to thousands of children In the
new country the peace conference
carved out of northern Austria-Hun-
gary. This is only one of numerous
undertakings of the Junior Red Cross
throughout Europe that have already
been 80 successful In establishing
better international understanding and
In inculcating spirit of world neigh
borliness among the children of Eu-
rope and America that the League Of
Red Gross, Societies Is now promoting
junior organizations In all of the coun-
tries represented In the league.
Teach Cleanliness.
The soap ana toothbrush campaign
IN Czecho-Slovakia grew naturally out
of work undertaken by the Junior Red
Cross of america when. II accepted the
management Of colony Of 455 under
nourished children sent to the Tatra
mountains from the poorest districts
OF Prague. The aim of the camp was
to teach the children the value of
clean minds and bodies and their obli-
cations TO the community and to each
other. When camp was broken In Sep
tember the rosy-cheeked, clear-eyed.
happy-faced youngsters were hardly
recognizable as the half-starved, un-
kempt and discouraged children who
had come there month before.
Immediately there came demand
for continuation of health instruc-
tiOn among the children and soon the
Junior Red Cross had launched cam
pdign In four schools In Prague, where
1000 children enlisted In what was
called "the fight for health" This was
modification of the health program
of the Child Health Organization of
America and the Crusade" Of the
Rockefeller Foundation.
1t took like wildfre. 1t was difficult
to say who were the most enthusiastic
children, teachers or parents. The
teachers said they had never seen such
rapid Improvement In children. not
only In cleanliness but in manners.
The children were anxious to have

MANY PLEAD FOR ENLISTMENT

Sons to Enlist-War Depart
ment Receives Inquiries.

Washlngton.-That the army offers
the only opportunity for even an ele-
mentary education for thousands of
young Americans who live In undevel-
oped communities Is evident from
the flood of letters which have been re-
ceived by the adjutant general since
the policy of education In the army
was recently announced.
Mothers and fathers whose sons have
been declined for enlistment because
of minority or physical defect have
written stating that there are no
schools to which their boys can be
sent and that they are unable. fnan-
cially, to send them away from home
to schools where gainful occupations
are taught, and asking that special
permission be granted for their ac-
ceptance into the army.
Public-splrited citizens In many COM
munities have sent In the names Of
young men who should be In school,
requesting the army to send them lit
erature calling their attention to the
opportunity being missed.
Plead for Enlistment.
The father Of eleven children, nine
of whom are boys, including pair Of
twins, writes that he sees no possibil-
ity at home for proper education for
any of them, and desires that special
permission be given to enlist his sec
ond oldest son and the twins, all three
of whom are little short Of the mini
mum age. He says his boys 'are large

Archibald Periwinkle had $14 In his

However, he decided that four bits

"Throw up your hands," commanded
the man, presenting gun.
Archibald did. But he frowned.
"Sir," said Archibald, shave you per-
