RED CROSS HEALS
WOUNDS OF WAR
25,000 Disabled Ex-Service Men
in Hospitals After Four
Years of Peace.
CHAPTERS'- FIELD OF SERVICE
Every Veteran Needing Help Gets
Individual Attention of Sym
pathetic Workers.
When on November 11 the world
halts to olserve the fourth anniver
Sry of Armistice Day, and the Ameri
can lIed Cross inaugurates its Annual
Roll Call for the enrollment of the
1)23 rtembership, the people of the
Unied States may well pause to think
of the unpairalleled contribution to the
cause of peace made by our Army and
Navy in the World War. The glory of
It is a common tradition ; but the
wounds of war remain. They are not
healed in a day, In a year, nor in four
years. And -1 Armistice Day there
will he under treatnent in (Government
hospilais over 25,00 ex-service men,
broken physically by wountls, expo
sure, nervous strain and exhaust ion
incident to their service in the war.
The (;overnment without stint Is un
dertaking to furnish these disabled
mien with the coimpensation and med
ical care to which they are entitled,
yet their espelial care is a duty of the
lIed Cro4ss. Why? Because the Gov
ernment cannot hdmile the cases of
ex-service men individually ; It must
handle these men In bulks under a
standardized policy. The Government
has neilher the authority, the funds
or the eqtiipment for working out the
problem of the individual iion. There
is where the Amieriean Red Cross
finds its greatest field for service, aid
ing through its very active Chanters
in reaching the disabled man with lim
medliate practica l help, a fslsting his
fancily while his claim is emerging from
the process of adjustment, furnishing
articles of comfort, funds to tide over
the dillicult periods, the friendly touch
of personal encouragement, helpful
recreation and worry-dispelling amuse
ment. It Is the warm hand of sym.
pathy and understanding whlch the
Amerlcan Red Cross extends to the
miajority of these disabled ex-service
men, sooin of them friendless in the
wlirl of life, thousands of them with
wives and chiidren dependent upon
themi, and h'ndrels of them frequent
ly helpless in the face of grim ne
cessity.

RED CROSS WINNING
IN' FIGHT FOR HEALTH
Better, Stronger Citizenry Now
Emerging Out of Work in
United States.
The American Red Cross as an
evangelist of better health has looked
its problem square in the- face. How
it accepted the task revealed to it in
the nation's physical condition as
brought out during the World Wyar,
and conscientiously applied its activi
ties to correction forms a vivid chap
ter in the forthcoming annual report.
listorically and practically, nursing is
a basic work for the lied Cross. In Its
public health nursing service, in in
struction in lhome hygiene and care of
the sick, nutrition classes, first aid
and life saving courses and health cen
tcrs, the American lied Cross is ap
plying eflectually the lessons learned
during the war and making for a
healthier, stronger and better nour
ished citizenry.
Tle task of the lied Cross l'ublc
Hlealth nurse In the 1,210 nursing serv
ices now operating throughout the
country instructing their communities
in health essentials and disease pre
Svention is detonstrating the possibilt
ties of human hettermeit and the great
benetiIs of enlightenment.
1)uring the last year 318 new public
health nursing services were establish
ed by iied Cross Chapters, and several
hundred services so convinclngly prov
ed their effectiveness t hat they were
taken over by public authorities. In
order to promote this work $30,000 was
allotted to provide women to prepare
themselves for public nursing. The
home visits made by the 1,210 nurses
aggregated nearly 1,5)0.000, visits to
schools numbered 110,000, and in six
months 1,250,10) school children were
inspected by these nurses and where
defects wvere found advised examina
tion by phystciaans. In rural comm u
nities this service has made a very
marked advance and has won thou
sands of converts to approved methods
of disease prevention.
In home hygiene and care of the sick
instruction, whlch fits the student in
liethods of proper care where illness Is
not so serious as to require profes
sional service, the led Cross conduct
ed 3.884 classes during the last year,
enrolled 2,35( lustrutors, 93,418 stu
dents and issued -12,0513 certillcates.
On .une 30, 1922, nutrition service
embraced 1,109 clsses. with a total of
27,523 children and 2,159 enrolled dietI
I tIans. Seventy-eight food select ion
classes graduated 733 who received
Ited Cross certificates. In general
health netivities lRed Cross Chapters
maintained 377 ealtith centers, serving
as lmany cotnaniities, provided :38,751
le:lti lectures for large udlietnces ev
erywhere, while clinics numbered over
10,01)0.
