The Red Cross’ first obligation is
to the veteran and service men and
hi* family in every community in the
United -States. To further this duty
pow that million* of our men are
homeward bound or “on to Japan,”
5Q0 social work scholarships and
special courses ta train 10,000 home
service workers are .being offered by
the National Society American Red
Cross. The 1-year scbolarahipe for
study at accredited schools of social
work are available to college gradu
ates who are interested in serving a
minimum of one year aa American
Red Cross hospital service or home
service workers.
' The scholarships include full tuition
and a monthly allowance of IKK). Im
mediately upon completion of study,
those who choose hospital service will
be assigned to mllttarjr hospitals in
the United States, those choosing
home service will work with veterans
and families of service men ip local
communities.
The training course for 10,000 addi
tlonal home service workers, to be
conducted through Red Cross chapters
during the next six months, will em-
phaaiie veterans’ services. Largely,
the trainees will be volunteers, but
will include a smaller number of new
and untrained paid workers. The
volunteer home service corps will
provide training in 376 large chap-
tors, and the remaining 3,381 chapters
will receive the course through “mSS'
tor” instructors previously trained at
National headquarters and in the five
area offices of the Red Cross.

Deas Boykin, Jr., Calls
Parents at Boykin, from
Miami, Florida
The family of Deas Boykin. Sr . at
Boykin, had a genuine thrill Sundhy,
when they received a telephone call
from their son Deas. Jr., who has
been away from the State* on over
seas duty for the past thirty-one
month*.
The call came from Miami, Florida,
where the young man bad lauded fol
lowing the ocean trip from oversea*.
Dean Boykin had attended Berry
School, at Rome, Ga., and entered
service early in the war. He landed
in England and was in the first con
tingent of troop* to go‘into Africa.
He later saw service in Sicily and
Italy. He w*aa wounded hut upou hi*
recovery Joined his command and
served in France and Germany.
WHh 105 points to hts credit he is
to be retired and plans to continue
his education at some college or uni
versity.
in our chapter in the early spring and
told of the enlargements of the scope
of this branch of toe service and it is
hoped that one of these ’’master” in
atructors can vialt our chapter and
in the Fail help form a corps of
trained assistants.
Summer health and safety are also
being stressed by the Red Cross.
Over exertion and exposure to the sun
cause many cases of accident and
need for first aid. Mr. Ernt'st Nut
ting, ■chairman, is cooperating with
the Kershaw County Recreational
Council worker, Miss Rigbtou Rich
arda. Fifteen children at a time are
taken out to Hermitage Lake and
taught water safety and swimming by
Miss Richards and her assistant.
About fifty children are listed for
this recreation, but only a few are
allowed in the water at the same time
and every precautioa taken as to
safety. More volunteers are needed
in this fine work. Young people who
are good swimmers can assist. Girls
or Boy Scouts would be invaluable.
For better light, wash lamp bulbs
occasionally but do not get the metal
aection wet. Dry thoroughly before
returning to socket.
