FIRST AID TRAINING
TO MEN AND WOMEN
United States Citizens Far Away
Enthusiastic Members of the.
"Fourteenth" Division,
American Red Cross Is' Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods.
The purpose of instruction In First
Aid to th Injured offered by the Amer
ican Red Cross la to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand It First Aid
treatment la not Intended to take the
place of a physician's serrtee. A sur
geon should always be summoneed as
I a precautionary measure where there
la an Injury of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured a few min
utes' delay may mean a fatality. In
such a case a person trained in First
Aid ts Invaluable not only to the tn
dividual, but through him to the com
munity In which he Urea.
There la perhaps no way of ascer
taining the number of deaths or seri
ous disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. It is safe to as
sert they number thousands dally.
There can be no doubt that the appli
cation of First Aid methods to each
aase would Immeasurably lighten the
exuntrys toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination of First Aid train
ing and Information has already pro-.
cCueed a farreachlng and beneficial ln
fkieBoe In the prevention of accidents
on' railroads, In mines and In great In
duMiial concerns.
. Tbe! benefit of a widespread knowl
edge of First Aid In the eyent of a
geat disaster, such as a train wreck.
n; explosion, an earthqulke, etc., Is
Obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sEstance. Many lives may depend upon
suchjemergency care.
Rjcjd Cross First Aid work Includes
peoformatlon and conduct, through
Retffross chapters, of classes for ln
atroJuon In accident prevention and
First, Aid to the Injured among men
andiwomen In all communities and In
eiery industry ; (2) the Introduction of
ejourses of Instruction in high schools
andeolleges.
'TfreIied Cross Is prepared to supply
Pirei 'books and equipment at rea
Sjoibje prices.
Every person In this country able to
doso Should, In his own Interest, re
ceive Red Cross First Aid Instruction.
Information about the course and In
struction classes may be liad at the
nearest chapter headquarters.
Among the most enthusiastic and
energetic members of the American
Red Cross are those dtliens of the
United Stales who live outside the
continental boundaries of their country
sons and daughters of the Stara and"
Stripes residing at the far corners of
the earth.
These people compose the Insular
and Foreign Division of the parent or
ganization, generally known as the
"Fourteenth Division, which has
Jurisdiction of all territory outside
the country proper; that Is, Alaska,
Porto Rico, Hawaii, Virgin Islands, the
Philippines, Guam, and even the la
land of Tap, which came under our
flag as a result of the world war. For
the year 1920 this division reported
S0.808 paid up members. '
The main object of this division Is
to give our citizens everywhere the op
portunity to participate In the work
of the organization which stands for
the best national Ideals. Americans:
in far places Intensely loyal and pa
triotic, treasure their membership in
the Red Cross as the outward ex
pression of their citizenship. It is an
other tie to the homeland and to
each other. There are chapters of
this division in Argentine, Bolivia.
Brazil, Caoal zone, Chile, China, Cost
Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic,
Ecuador, England, France, Quanv
Guatemala, Haiti, Hawaii, Honduras,
Japan, Manchuria, Netherlands, Nica
ragua, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines,
Porto Rico, Siberia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Syria. Turkey, Uruguay,
Venezuela and Virgin Islands.
During the war these scattered
members of the Red Cross contrib
uted millions In money, and millions'
of dollars worth of necessary article
for the men In service, and sent many
doctors and nurses to France. At the
same time they, carried on an excel
lent Home Service in their respective
communities for the families of thoaa
who had gone to war, and in some re
gions gave large sums of money and
Immeasurable personal service to the
relief of disaster and disease victims.
The division Is now establishing
service clubs In foreign porta for the
benefit of aallon In tha American Mer
chant Marine, making plana to -aid
Americans In trouble in foreign lands
and completing arrangement for giv
ing Immediate adequate relief In case
of disaster.

RED CROSS ASSISTS
DISABLED VETERANS
The American Red Cross Is carrying
on a wide program of service for the'
disabled World War veterans receiving:
treatment in United States Public
Health hospitals, and those being train
ed through, agencies of the Federal
ifoard for Vocational Education.
In each of the Public Health Service
hospitals Red Cross workers devote
their time to the general welfare of
the service men from the day they
enter "the receiving ward until they
are discharged. After the soldier's dis
charge the Red Cross continues Its
friendly service through the Home
Service Section in his own community.
The Red Cross maintains a convales
cent house at all of the hospitals,,
where patients can amuse themselves
after they are well enough fo be up
and around. Parties and picture shows
In the wnrds are also furnished, with'
occasional excursions when convales
cence comes.
Great service hns been rendered by
the Red Cross in mental cases In-Identifying
those who have nppoared In
state hospitals, for the Insane, and help
ing them secure compensation due from
the Bureau of War Risk Insurance.
In the Federal Hoard's various dis
trict offices the Red Cross worker, act
ing with the Home Service Section,
makes necessary loins to the men, at-,
ranges suitablelivlns cond!tIonsr helps
collect evidence and supply faets to the
Board, assists In "apieallng cases'' and
settles various personal .difficulties for
the men. The workers also follow up
and aid all men who discontinue train
ing. The Red Cross agents find men "lost"
to the Board, help clear up delayed
cases and nld the nil lege counselors In
their friendly work with the men.
Many Red Cross chapters have set up
recreation facilities, and in some in
stances living clubs, so these victims
of war may have attractive surround
ings and the fun which must go with,
effective school work.
To the American Red Chips Institute
for the Blind near Baltimore, Md.,
mote than half of nil the Americans
blinded In the World War, have come
for training The Institute, through
the Red Cross, lone ago conducted an
exhaustive Industrial survey to deter
mine the vocations for which Mind

puttlnc forth well trained men equip
ped to meet the social, civic and eco
nomic requirements of their respective
communities. .
