They have one very large undertaking carried over from ponies, _the Crippled Children's Fund, and another all-embracing one, the National Junior Red Cross War Fund. Members of the Junior of scope for all their efforts within the oflalt of these two funds.” _ One aspect. of patriotism and eer- vloe in which boys and girls score over adults. is in the field of health, said Miss Browne. The Junior Rec- oross hes health cards on which are set forth the funda- mental r-ules of healthy living, placed. so fsr es we know. in the order of their importance. ‘Phase rules become a kind of creed to all members. They are based on the results of medical research from the time d Pasteur to the present moment. Instances were cied by tine weaker of the great value of these rules. Iloalfli fllbltl lhaphestaed Great wars usually are followed by epidemics. History has demon- strated that the disease which fol- lows war destroys more lives than were killed in actual combat. instance, in the Crusades. it was not the deaths in the field that de- nleted Europe, but the brought back from the lh Napoleon's attack on Rus- sia. the chief losses on both sides were also from disease. In the lmmco-Gennan War in 1M0 the snail pox in Germany which fol- lowed killed more men than France lost on the battlefields. In the American Civil War. hwo men died lot’ disease for every one who fel in the field, and the British losses lfrom enterlc fever following the South Aifrlcsn war were appalling. Junior Rcd Cross has done some- thing in the last twenty years to establish health hit/bits win oh may prevent the ravages of an epid- emic after this war. “There can be no doubt," said Miss Browne, "that because 850,001 tschool boys and girls in Canada [are actually practising these health |rules. the death rats in Canada is b91118 cut snd a vast amount o! unnecessary ilines; ie being avoid- ed. "m protect their own health PM" and that of others ie possibly the greatest contribution members the Junior Red Cross can make to their country in time of war. Through the service programme of the Junior Red Cross, much is also being done in dilute the self- ishness which is the bane of 0hr modern world. Young people are taught the greatest lesson of 300d citizenship, and from then on sei- fishness gives way to altruism.

Nearly half a million of these cards have been received so far in Algeria, Bel- taly and Germany. from 168 cam giuin, France, All materials and yarn are now on a quota basis Mrs. Foster reported. In April, 194.2, the quota. of knitted garments was received to be made in iiho remaining eight months of the year. This, in turn, was allocat- ed to Branches and other groups and most of it has already been shipped. 1n 194i 1,386 beautiful quilts were senit overseas but in 1942 that fig- ure was almost doubled and a grand total of 2,086 quilts were sent from this Province. The branches and rural groups are most- iy responsible for this creditable showing. These quilts were all don- ated, and cost Rec Cross nothing. Over 14.000 civilian garments for babies, boys and girls. men and wo- men have also been provided by this Province, as well as 12.046 knitted comforts for men and women of services and over 18,000 hospital supplies. ‘rlie committee has almost com- pleted 150 comfort bag; for the Navy at cost of $8 50 each and for which the money has been es- pecially raised. ‘These bags contain: Comb, soap, hard candy. razor and blades. pipe and tobacco. chewing gum, envelopes and paper, pencil, story book, game or playing cards. socks. handkerchief, towel. wash cloth, housewife. tooth brush anci- powder and shaving stick. We are also making and filling survivors‘ begs. These are for rescue work and provide a sailor with sufficient clothing to tide him over until he can get to his port. The contents are: a Windbreaker or overcoat. not necessarily new, trousers, socks. toilet requisite.- and so on. Tliese bags have been found to be of in- estlmalfe value in rescue work. The Ways and Means Commit/tee is well organised and is doing a splendid job in supplementing the funds always so badly needed, Mrs. Foster reported. One of the highlights of the year was; a visit from Mrs W. R. Campbell. Notional Chairman of the Women's War Work Committee. This was Mrs. Campbell's second visit to the Province and on both occasions she was a source of in- spiration to all who were privileged to hear her. Mrs, Foster expressed appreciation of the loyal subport received from branch" and units. from the wo- .men’s Institutes snd Catholic Wo- men's Leagues as well as from the many churches and other nouns which have super-shed whole heart- Bhe also congratulated- the Divisional convenors and thcli‘ their aide on the Iuecss of their achievement.
