I!! FIGHT FOU HEALTH
Better, Stronger Citizenry Now
Emerging Out of Work in
United States.
The Amerlcnn T!p1 Crop tm in
evangelist of better health has looked
its problem fqnare In the face. How
It accepted the task revealed to It In
the nnUon's physical condition
brought out during the 'JVorid War,
and conscientiously applied Its activi
ties to correction forms a vivid chap
ter in the forthconilnK annual report.
Historically and practically, nursing is
a basic work for the lied Cross. In ita
public health nursing service, in In
struction in home hygiene and care of
the sick, nutrition classes, first aid
and life savin"); courses and health cen
ters, the American Ited Cross is ap
plying effectually the lessons learned
during the war nnd making for a
healthier, stronger and better nour
ished citizenry.
The task of the Fed Cross Public
Health nurse In the l,"l() nursing serv
ices now operating throughout the
country Instructing their communities
In health essentials and disease pre
vention is demonstrating the possibili
ties of human betterment and the great
benefits of enlightenment.
During the Inst year 313 new public
health nursing services were establish
ed by Red Cross Chapters, and several
hundred services do convincingly prey
ed their effectiveness that they were
taken over by public suthorlties. In
order to promote this work $.'iO,HK) was
allotted to provide women to prepare
themselves for public nursing. The
home visits made by the 1,210 nurses
aggregated nearly l,r00,000, visits to
schools numbered 140,000, nnd In six
months 1,2.")0,000 school children were
inspected by these nurses and where
defects were found advised examina
tion by physicians. In rurnl commu
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, which tits the student In
methods of proper care where Illness Is
not so serious as to require profes
sional service, the Ited Cross conduct
ed 3.SS4 classes during the last year,
enrolled 2,".")0 instructors, fn,4IS stu
dents and issued 42,1'm(1 certificates.
On June 30. 102, nutrition service
embraced 1,109 classes, with a total of
27.S23 children and 2,.".S! enrolled dieti
tians. Seventy-eight food selection
classes graduated 733 who received
Ited Cross certificates. In general
health activities Ited Cross Chapters
maintained 377 health centers, serving
as many communities, provided 33,701
health lectures for large audiences ev
erywhere, while clinics numbered over
10,000.
Red Cross Gains

In insrhir jkisncssIotis of tin? United

8eventy-two disasters, with hnn-
dreds reported killed and injured, and
more than 145.000 either homeless or
requiring assistance, called for finer-

penditure of $i,4ii,4sr,.:!i3 by the

while the overllowing of rivers, the
breaking of dams and torrential rains
drove the greatest number of people
from their homes. The property loss
was estimated at more than $30,
000.000. The year's disasters reported In
cluded twenty-six floods, nineteen tor
nadoes, fifteen fires, four epidemics,
two theatre collapses, two shipwrecks
lapse, mine explosion, railway colli-
sion, nnd a drought. Of the floods In
the United States that ut San An
tonio, Texas, caused the greatest
property loss, $0,000,000 and the high
mark of fatalities, 100, while the
flood In the vicinity of VIcksburg and
Natchez, Miss., forced 31,000 persons
from their homes.
A National Calamity
In the Red Cross disaster relief
records there will probably remain
for many years one calamity which
touched nearly every ntute with a
sense of horror and of loss. This was
the distressing collapse of the roof
of the Knickerbocker Theatre In
Washington, D. C, resulting In ninety-six
deaths and 125 persons Injured.
Situated In the center of the beauti
ful Northwest residential section, this
motion picture theatre was patronized
by many persons of prominence both
in the official and civil life of the N'a
tiont'l Capital, whose family nl per
sonal connections radiated out over
the entire country. The horror was
Intensified by a terrific snowstorm
which though It retarded, did not
block Hod Cross relief.
Airship Crash Finds Aid at Hand
The crash and delruction of the O.
S. Army's large airship Iloma In Vir
ginia last February with the loss of 31
officers and men and 11 Injured was
the first disaster of Its kind to call for
Ited Cross relief in this country. The
suddenness of the accident tested the
preparedness of the organization and
of the Chapter at Hampton, Va., but
the response was Immediate and relief
furnished the survivors, also funds for
the expenses of relatives of the dead,
who on me from long distances to claim
their own.
In the year's oversea record for aid
rendered by the lied Cross are two
fires In the Philippines, one In Manila,
which destroyed 1,000 homes, with a
loss of $!,500,0t0 and 5.000 persons
made homeless, the other at Tonlo,
which drove 3,000 from their dwellings.
In medical relief that was quick and
effective the smallpox epidemic in San
Domingo, which had a total of 22.000
cases with 225 deaths In a single day.
tested the readiness of the Ited Cross
for action, and the same can he said
of the Siin Domingo hurricane, which
killed 12 persons and rediutvl the
homes i f 1?2 persons to wreckage. A
flood In San Salvador, with a death
toll of 50 and 2,000 refugees, was also
effectually handled by the local Chap
ter of the American lied Cross.
R?lief Machinery, Perfected
The year has seen the further per
fection of disaster relief administra
tive inr-r.siw-ps In cverv field of Ameri
can Ited CM-nss activity, and that the
Work may be carried on to til greater
accomplishments the American Hod
Cross is appealing for widespread re
newal of membership during the an
nus! Koll Call, to he conducted this
year from Armistice Ihiy (November
11) to. and including, Thanksgiving
Day (November 30).
