WAR VETERANS Approximately 70 veterans are patients in our hospitals all the year round. They are suffering as the after effects of the war service they have given on our behalf. and are deserving of any comfort which can be given .to them through an ulganizati such as Red Cross which was primarily instituted "To furnish volunteer aid to the sick and wounded in time of war". To help maize their stay in hospital a little more pleasant. and a little less monotonous, a weekly movie show is provided for those who are patients in the Charlottetown Hos- pitals, through the co-operation of Red Cross and D.V A. Red Cross Corps Members in Charlottetown. regularly made some 1,300 visits to these veterans in hospitals when they brought them cigarettes and magazines. as well as special gifts at Christmas.

"Prcpardncss lcsscns suffering" is a statementlvhich no one can contradict. and which has been proven time and again. Red Cross Disaster Services in P.E.I. had a chance to prove the value of hav- ing a llvewire organization in read- iness. when the recent storm caus- ed such hardship as the result of power failure. 244 pieces of cloth- ing and bedding were provided through Disaster Services for Z) families who lost their homes by fire during the past year.

6.000 pieces of clothing for vict- ims of disaster at home and abroad were made up by the Women's Work Committee which has hund- reds of faithful volunteers through- out the province who. year after year. give their services freely in order to lessen the suffering of others. The goodwill engendered by these gifts will do a great deal to assist in bringing harmony to the troubled areas of this world.

FUND CAMPAIGN

Although 97 per cent of all this work carried on under the banner of Red Cross which we have seen promotes health. prevents disease and lessens suffering. is accomp- lished by volunteers. it still costs money to provide these services. That is why there is a Campaign for funds in March of each year. it is most gratifying to be able to say that in 1955 we reached and ex- ceeded our Provincial objective. for the first time in several years. when 827,996.37 was contributed on our quota of 827,400. This was 102 per cent of our objective. and made us tlnrd in line unong the prov- inces. on a percentage basis.

Death Wednesday! of i. W. Nicholson I

The death ocurrcd yesterday morning at his home at Milltown! Cross of John William Nicholson.- following a lengthy illness. The deceased was in his 83rd year. He was born at Milltown Cross. ihel son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Mar- ' tin Nicholson. and operated a farm throughout his life time. He

his feliowman. and u ho. when asked about his principle which he calls Rcverence for life sald:- "It is not enough to do onr's daily job. support onc's family. abide by the laws. That's all very well. but you must do something more. You must give some time to your fellow man. Even if it's a little thing, do something for those who have need of help. something for winch you get no pay. but the privilege of doing it."

To all. then. and they are legion. who have assisted the wide hum- anitarian program of the Society in

ments presented by the Honorary Treasurer will show the costs of the administration of the different services which we are happy to state were kept well within the overall Budget for the year. I trust you will understand that while the bulk of Red Cross Ser- vices is carried on by volunteers, it is necessary to have a small number of full-time paid employ- ees, exports in their lines, to co- ordinate the cfforts of these vol- unteers. It is also necessary to have a headquarters building. for all this work, from which directions emanate. and the required in

siruction and materials are provid- ed. You will be amazed to know that 22,736 pieces of mail were sent out in 1955 from Red Cross Headquarters with the able assist- ance of man volunteers. most of

whom were unior Red Cross mcm bars from the Charlottetown Schools

CONCLUSION

This. then. is a very brief sum- mary - as records go - of what Red Cross has been responsible for in Prince Edward Island in the past year. It in no way attempts to tell the full story that you will find when you read the reports of the different Committees. The Chairmen and members of these. Committees. each of whom vol- untarily gavs a great deal of time to the problems concerned with the particular departments. will I hope feel amply rewarded in the know- ledge hat he or she has on something for someone else. I know they will all agree with Dr. Albert Schweitzer, noted physician philosopher. and 1965 Nobel Prize

with the many hundreds of Prince Edward Islanders who so enthus- iastically volunteer their services each year. and with our very fine and devoted staff.

In bringing this report to a con- ciusion. I would again like to quote from Dr. Schweitzer. who summed up the work of our international organization as follows:- "For us. the Red Cross is more than an institution. It stands for an ideal - one in which humanity must think, feel and act with ompnssion to- ward the world's suffering people. Thanks to it. moral law continues to hold a high place, even in the moral confusion of today."
