A very hard working and impor-
itant committee is that for receiving,

work-she was one of the first
women to teach first aid after
war was declared and she held
classes for the Red Cross through
1912 and into 1943, even after
she became a Gray Lady.
Although she has not been
called upon during her few

to use her capable hands In writ
ing Braille for disabled service
men, must it not be a satisfaction
to the Gray Ladies organization
to know that should such a need
arise one Of their own members

Mrs. Ross Mclntire 11unscribes Into Bruille;
Is Actively Engaged in Work as Gray Lady
Wife of Surgeon
General of Navy
Modest on Duties
By Lillian Arthur.

Dv Lillian Arthur.
You don't hear much about
Mrs. Ross T. McIntire's war work
from Mrs. Mc1ntire herself.
She will tell you, of course,
that she is a Gray Lady and
that she is on duty at the Ma
tional Naval Medical Center in
Bethesda two days a week and
that she has taught several first
aid classes. And she may tell you,
toe, that she likes to travel, that
she thinks Honolulu is the love-
liest place in the world and that
she would like to spend her life
there, that she has a home in
Spring Valley, that her mother,
Mrs. Mary Palmer, lives with her
and her husbands niece, Miss
Jean David, and that she has
-'ekinese dogs for pets.
And then she will add with
that heart-warming, encouraging
smile that is so definitely char
acteristic and makes you like her
at once and want TO know her
better: II guess that's enough
about me, isn't it? I really can't
,hink of anything else"
When you c.sk her for details
about some of her work she
gives you that same friendly
smile and shakes her head: you
see, it's just this way. I'm doing
what In doing because it's the
thing I want to do most"
But you don't have to go very
far in Washington to pick up
all sorts of information about
Mrs. McIntire's work in the city
and you come across this infor-
nation in the most unexpected
places.
For instance-who would think
of finding story about a Gray
Lady and a Red Cross worker
in the Offices of the Washington
Society for the Blind! But the
records there show that she is
a member of the society's board
Of directors and has been the
secretary of the board almost
since its organization in 1888.
Say all the nice things you
want to about Mrs. McIntire,".
Mr.. w. L. Mcdaniel, the execu-
tive director of society, will tell
you. She's our most faithful
and dependable worker. She
does not miss a meeting and is
never too busy to help when
ever we call upon her."
Then there's another story that
comes from one of the librarians
at the National Library for the
Blind. She knows Mrs. Nc
Intire, too, and points to a shelf
of books, 18 volumes altogether,
on money and banking-text-
books that Mrs. McIntire tram
scribed into Braille for a blind
student at George Washington
University, who now is a practic-
ing attorney in this city. She
worked on this project over year
and did the books a chapter or
two at a time, as the student
needed them. On onther shelf
is copy of Helen Keller's book,
