in the Griffin Hospital. We also cooperate in other courses.
 We have had three first aid courses lately, two in the school, and one for the CAP. We've been hamstrung in some years by lack of certified instructors, but we have enough now and can have classes whenever people want them. You might say, also, that we could use Nurses Aid instructor"
 When we called Mrs. Ballard we interrupted her lunch hour, but she kindly told us that her case work involves the military families in town who are in need of help, as well as families all over the island whose boys are stationed else where in the service. As with all Red Cross chapters, some of the casework is with veterans. An ex- ample of this is helping to estab- fish service connected disabilities where disabling illnesses, or death occur. With the military" she said," sometimes their allotment checks don't arrive on time, or they have to go on emergency leave. We give them interest free loans. We often work with the Field Di- rector on this."
 When Mrs. Ballard needs to con- tact families around the island, much the same difficulty arises here as in the interior of Alaska: We have to get in touch with them by radio, or through the fly ing services in town. Trying to con- tact someone for verification of emergency leave, or other prob lems, sometime takes several days
 Through both the Volunteer Services and the Homeservice de pertinent, Red Cross aids burned out families, survivors of boat ac- cidents, and ill fishermen who are put off their boats and left here for medical care. (Financial aid to people who lose their homes in dis asters large or small, is a grant.)
 As recounted here, these are the principal services in this area available to all of US through the Red Cross. When we give, our money is used carefully, wisely, and with heart.
 Mrs. Helena Vaughn, chairman of Volunteer Services on the base, announces there will be new class for Grey Ladies and Staff Aids. Volunteers are needed.

Red Cross
Continued from Page 3

we don't often give instruction here in water safety because the services take care of that to great extent, and where it concerns safe ty equipment in boats, the Coast Guard inspects boats for these things. The instruction would like most of all to stress here, is first aid.
 Red Cross also works closely with Civil Defence. They have been urging that at least one mem
 Der of every family have the Red Cross first aid course. It's valuable an so many situations" We asked II an appreciable number of com mercial fishermen around the is- land was qualified in first aid. ''No, not enough of them. Classes can
 be run anytime there is demand. and we wish more fishermen, as well as other people, would sign up. This is certainly place to be conscious of first aid; one example Of the great need to know what to do happened year or so ago, out in the bush. Three men were hunt ing and one accidentally shot him. self. His two friends knew noth- ing about first aid and they carried nlmdown rough mountain to car, then drove him quite a dis tance to a hospital. The boy died. Investigation proved that he died, not from the wound, but from shock and bleeding. Basic first aid would have saved him, but even without that, if his friends had just made him comfortable and gone for help, he would have lived"
 What about mouth to mouth res usitation? That is the most effec. tive of all the resusitation methods, and the simplest. It doesn't out date the other methods; in fact, sometimes you have to use a com bination of several, but mouth-to- mouth can be taught, even by film. We hope to get film soon, and we will show it extensively, with all available facilities" Bob Fleming added an interesting footnote to this: 'Mouth-to-mouth resusitation is ancient; it was described back in the Old Testament, but only in re- cent years has it been revived. Our 1861 membership card will have on it an illustrated description of this and other first aid tips"
 The Kodiak Chapter is almost all together volunteer; the one ex- ception is Mrs. William Sheridan, very recently employed to keep records and perform certain secre- tarial duties. Her salary will amount to very little. MT. Leon Johnson is Chapter Chairman; Mrs. Norman Sutliff is Chairman of Vol unteers and has been for Is years; Mrs. Gala Ballard is Home Serv- ice Chairman-she has handled all the case work for 5 years; Chief Vickery is Chairman of Safety Services; Lou Veerman is Treas urer; and Ben Guhrke is secretary.
 When we talked with Mrs. Sut- Tiff, by phone, we of course, could not see her, but even had she not said, q love it" we'd have known from the warmth and enthusiasm that came oyer the line, how much she loves Red Cross work. "Of course we were very active here during the war;" she said. We had canteen committees that met all the ships, and our Grey Lady serv- ices were in great demand in the Army hospital. Then for about five years after the war there wasn't so much need for Grey Ladies, but we do need them now. We're happy
