SURGICAL DRESSING DRIVE

II also is anticipated that a
large surgical dressing program
will be inaugurated soon at the
request of the war and navy de-
partments for which volunteers
can aid.
There now are approximately
. 600 volunteer first aid instructors
enrolled, but many more are
needed. Groups of 20 people or
more or organizations may receive
this instruction by calling Fitzroy
5000 and making arrangements
for an instructor. The course
takes 20 hours Women also are
invited 10 enroll for the 30-hour
home nursing corps. which func-
tons separately from the nurses

There also are other activities
Of the Red Cross. where volunteers
can assist. and further information
about them can be obtained by
calling the same number.
Since announcement of the tin
can conservation campaign many
have wondered why the special
processing is necessary before de-
livery of the cans 10 the various
pickup agencies in this area.
The government asks that house
wives who save them cut of both
ends, wash the cans and crush
them fiat so that the tin and steel
in them may be used for war pur-
poses.
II the cans were TO be crushed
with one end on and not washed it
would greatly handicap the recov-
cry process. Removal OF the sub

mates the hazard of contamination
of the chemicals used in the de-
thinning process. Removal of the
ends and flattening conseves ship

cleansing.

Detroit Chapter
Of Red Cross
Plays Vital Role
BY KEN HALL

Few people realize just how i'm
portant a part the Detroit chapter
of the Red Cross Is playing in
preparations for possible air raids
IN this, the industrial center OF the
war effort, but its functions are
many and vital TO every ones well
fare. both at home and to the men
in the service.
There are more than 10000
members Of the Detroit chapter,
with 100000 school children men,
bers of the Junior Red Cross.
More than 100000 citizens con-
tributed to its campaigns for funds
and $4,000 blood donors have ex-
tended this aid to date.
Detroit's blood quota Is 1,500
pints a week, which has been filled
consistently by donors who have
visited the blood procurement
center at Cass and Alexandrine.
Those eligible are from FL to 60
years of age who enjoy good
health, and volunteers for this
service still are wanted.
wOMEN'S UNITS ACTIVE
Women's activities maintained
by the local Red Cross are organ
iZation of a motor corps, recrea-
tional activities. nurses aid corps,
hospital corps. home end canteen
service as we'll as production and
staff assistance corps.
All of those participating in
them are trained in special
courses.
The outstanding need OF the Red
Cross is experienced knitters to
turn out knit essentials for the
armed forces, Detroit just having
been assigned large quota TO be
finished by August 10.
Any. woman experienced in this
line should call the Red Cross
House, 2l63 East Jefferson, and
volunteer TO put this work over
the top on time.

 Gunnar, arms up, shoulders hunched forward, kept scanning the horizon with his glass, At last he turned.

 They passed the glasses from

In the circumstances, a proposal

Signs for SuIvuqe

Any observant individual who has
motored over the United States in
recent years must have noticed a
phenomenon to which the National
Roadside Council has referred in a
statement reading in part: THE
War Production Board some months
ago prohibited the use Of metals Of
any kind in the manufacture Of ad-
vertising signs. Yet thousands Of
old signs and bIlboards, erected be-
fore this prohibition went into ef-

FROM WEAKNESS TO STRENGTH
By the Right Req. JAMES E. FREEMAN D. d. ILL., d. c. L.,
Bishop OF Washington.

Letters frequently come to may desk,
mostly from the mothers of sons, many
OF them far away rendering loyal service
to their Government. These letters are
full of deep concern and of inexpressable
love. While they express prayerful de-
sire that their boys may be preserved
and ultimately returned in safety to
their homes, they also indicate a long
ing that the moral character of their
sons may be maintained blameless and
without offense.
From millions of homes in this coun-
try, prayers go up to God day by day
that these precious boys of ours may at
all times serve God and country without
fear and without shame. We must be-
lieve that one of the greatest sources of
strength that today marks our life as
a people is the unceasing prayer habit of
the mothers of our men. We are re-
minded Of phrase written by the gifted
pen Of Dr. Carrel. where he says: When
we pray, we link our lives with the in
exhaustible power that spins the uni
verse"
. There are no limitations upon the
power Of prayer, and where our sons are
made conscious Of the fact that we. as
a people. are on our knees before God
day and night, praying for the men in
our armed forces, We are invoking
power that is mightier than that of the
armed forces of their enemies. To arm
our men with a strength that shall make
them strong and stable under all condi-
lions, is to render them invincible in the
day of battle. Nothing can do more to
ease their burdens or to tighten their
darkened pathways than to feel that here
in the homeland their kinsfolk and
friends are following them daily with
love and devotion. that though they are
far from home and loved ones. their
names are borne up to God and His pro-
tecting care invoked in their behalf.
