"We now glve our young members an understanding of their interna- tional social responsibilities as well as the responsibilities they must have towards their own commun- ity and country." .

Dr. Upritchard listed several of the Junior Red Cross projects now financed by school children in the Dominion, in addition to a nurs- ery for small children in war rav- aged China, a camp ln Switzerland for children oi Europe, undernour- ished and threatened by tubercul- osis and anemia, and now in oper- ation tn England a. plan whereby children amputation cues as a re- sult of the war are outfitted with artificial limbs.

THE GUARDIAN, UHARLUPI‘ ET OWN

Junior lied Cross Work Reviewed Al Rotary Club

The Junior Red Cross has about 000,000 members in Canada and is organized in fifty-five countries of the world, said Miss Muriel Up- ritohard, Ph. 1).. MA. Assistant National Director of the Junior Canadian Red Cross, in her ad- dress to Rotarians yesterday.-

Menzbers are taught that haslih is not merely the absence of dis- ease for the highest standards 0f physical, mental and moral health must come from tha constant prac- ilce of the rules of good behavior. The difficulty of carrying out these rules which are taught in all groups is that those responsible in the community are themselves not keenly enough aware of what is required. For example, even the youngest member of the Junior Red Cross_ knows that hands should be washed before eating, yet the facilities to carry out even this simple health practice are often limited and sometimes en- tirely lacking. Also the rules of nutrition are taught to children who then proceed to eat what they- have brought in the lunch bas- kets.

Accidents are a major cause of death acnong young pwplo llld surveys are being conducted to show children these causes of ae- cidents and the precautions they should take, said the speaker.

Ideals oi community service are also stressed and projects are un- dertaken whioh stimulate the in- terest of the young people in the betterment of their community. Although not a crippled children's society members do assist in rais- ing money to aid these children. The idea is more to arouse their compassion and increase their so- cial consciousness. The govern- ment has contributed largely to crippled children's work, but it is felt that interest will be taken only if the children themselves can contribute in some way.

Miss Upritchard said that an- other important sctivity of the movement was the International friendship which was developed through the exchange of port-folio! depicting the life and character- istics of their community. The portfolio was sent to a branch of the Junior Red Cmss in another country which responded by send- ing a portfolio of their commun- ity. Arrangements have also been made for the. exchange of stu- dents which will also help to fos- ter better international relation- ships.

Mrs, 5. MacCalium, Director of Junior Red Cross for P. E. I. was present. Chairmen were Rotarlans Alfred Pickard and E. D. Reid- The speaker was introduced by Rotarian R. H. Rogers, Chairman of the P. E. I. Red Cross Society.

Experimental Farm Service For Breeders

For the purposes of comparing and "proving" the Ayrshire herd bulls at the Experimental Farm. pure-bred Ayrshire breeders may avail themselves of an artificial in- semlnatlon service through Farm facilities provided they breed ae- cordlng to the Farm requirements. stated Mr. RC. Parent. Farm Sup- erintendent. This will be a. some- what similar project to that car- ried on by the Experimental Farm zt Ottawa with their Hoisteins.

Mr. Parent states further that the service which has been auth- orlzed at Ottawa, is an experiment serving to maintain the artificial insemination unit equipment for future use. if necessary, and pro- vide Ayrshire breeders with the opportunity of using artificial in- scmination.

loaned to the central unit last July. Mr. Harold Storeywlll return to the staff of the Experimental Farm as a regular employee. Mr. Parent said.

It l; proposed to charge the same fee of 05.00 in this new service. and probably an additional $1.00 fee for the papers.

Cows will be bred first to the senior herd sire. Ifvsna Sir Rod- erick ‘lth and then to the junior. Charlottetown Sir Roderick 7th, n son out of the division-leading Sunflower cow. Comparisons may then be made with the dam and daughter's production.

To qualify for the AA grade. apart from other considerations, s sire must have 10 qualified BOP daughters. ‘This experiment will also speed up the qualifying time for bulls at the Farm.
