Chairman John Bar to Payne announced. "As the year closed the organisation continued In readiness to serve in the forthcoming winter at the point of greatest need and to adjust Its service to meet the calls of the emergency of unemployment and disaster," Chairman Payne stated. In a year of greatest economic dis tress In the nation's history. In which the Red Cross ably discharged a relief task In distributing flour and clothing to distressed families In all but six of the nation's 3,098 counties, the organi zation also was called Into action In 120 disasters, of which 90 were within the borders of the United States. Earthquake, floods, hurricanes, fires and other cataclysms visited death and ! destruction upon the lives and homes of thousands of people. Red Cross sta tistics showed that in the 120 disasters almost a thousand lives were lost. 148,- 340 homes were destroyed or damaged. 13.275 persons were injured, and Red Cross relief was given to 452.879 Indi viduals. In giving aid in these disasters, In Its unemployment relief and in handling the distribution of government wheat and cotton, the Red Cross expended from its national treasury the sum of 11,070.284. During one period of twelve weeks, 46 disasters occuired in 23 states. Red Cross disaster workers were hard pressed in meeting all of these needs occurring at once, but everywhere mis try was promptly relieved. Support of the Red Cross work Is through its annual roll call, conducted by chapters in the period from Armis tice Day to Thanksgiving Day. Novem ber 11 to November 30. Every citizen who joins the Red Cross as a member aids in carrying relief ko disaster vic tims and in other Red Cross services, such as preservation of life, child wel fare through the Junior Red Cross, and direct service for the public health. RED CROSS CLOTHES THE NATION'S NEEDY Flour, Bread, Clothing Reach Into More Than Five Million Homes of Jobless The greatest task ever undertaken by a relief agency in the history of private charity i 6 drawing to a close with the final distribution of cotton clothing to more than five million families by the American Red Cross. At the direction of the Congress, be ginning eighteen months ago, the Red Cross undertook to convert the wheat and cotton surplu«es of the Farm Board into food and clothing for tbe unemployed and needy. In the con sequent operation, this relief agency entered upon a commercial enterprise greater than any single commercial firm has ever undertaken In the same period of time. In the ensuing months tbe Red Cross converted 85,000,000 bushels of wheat into flour and bread and gave It to 5,803,000 families. Tbe distribution was through 3,700 Red Cross chapters and hundreds of other charitable agen cies. During the severe northwestern drought of 1931 the Red Cross also gave wheat in the form of food for live stock to 184,188 families. The clothing dresses, underwear, overalls, jumpers, sweaters and stock ings for men, women and children, and even blankets and comforters—was dis tributed to MG5.410 families. More than 64.000,000 ready-made garment! and 92.000,000 yards of cotton cloth were given to the needy. This clothing came from 844,000 bales of cotton. The wheat distribution was conclud ed In June, 1933, and final distribution of cotton clothing Is occurring in the fall months. in handling these tasks voted to It by Congress, the Red Cross will ex pend from Its own treasury 9735,000. At the same time the organization car ried on Its regular program of disaster relief; of service to the veterans of all our wars; of educational and welfare work through the Junior Red Crosa; of health education and public health nursing and of life saving and first aid. Funds for this work come from tbe membership roil call the Red Cross chapters conduct from Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day, when every one Is Invited to join the Red Cro«ss and aid in this vital relief work. Seven hundred thousand women vol unteers under the Red Cross banner sewed for the needy last year and many thousands still are making cot ton garments for their Red Cross chapters. Iho Red Cross has 3.701 chapters and 10,000 branches of chapters. Thus j it can be mobilized nationwide in a great relief task within 24 hours. LUNCHES were intended to be gay interludes something to divide the working day in to two pleasant parts. And whether one's business is in an office, in the home, or in the schoolroom, this nooraday period of relaxation should be something to look forward to, and to look back upon. The wrong kind of a school lunch is the kind that one knows all about before it even appears. Do you know Elizabeth Boyd liorie's verses called "Hunches"? J always have a sort of hunch About what's coming for my lunch : 1 almost always seem to tell Just by the odor of the. smell. Hut when my nursie. says, "Yutn-yum ! IVhat do you spose is going to comet" That's when I always hate to wash Hccausc I I; note it must be squash. So when we plan the school lunches for the coming term, let's have such varied menus that there'll be no hunches—and no squash. The first requisite of a good pack-and-carry lunch is a good luncli-kit. Don't begrudge the extra money that a real mod ernly equipped kit will cost, be cause it will malce possible such interesting and healthful foods as fruit juices, salads, custards, and all sorts of things which the pa per bag or the old-fashioned tin lunch box could not possibly hold. Ample Time for Lunch If it is possible to have the chil dren come home from school for What-ToDo For Fall Parties 1 Yf IF your fall parties don't turn ! out to be a grand time for all, it isn't the fault of the shops this Beason. There's everything new to do, new to eat, new to drink and new ways to eat and drink them. Going through tbe game departments of the larger stores is more fun than a country fair—what with things to shoot, balls to roll, punch games and dice games. And even perennial bridge has new devices that all but play the game for you. Jolly Games Among the new games to be recommended are "Balaroo," with a spin-the-top center and ping pong ball attachments, a new anagram game that is lively and amusing and known as "Scram bles," Eddie Cantor's deaMhe-card game called "Tell It to the Judge," and another game called "Sorry" which anyone would be glail to play. Backgammon is still hold ing Its own and comes in any kind of form you want, from the ten cent store edition to a handsome tooled-leather set. And there are ulso old-fashioned parched sets— the kind you played on when you were a youngster—and Club Par chesi which has a hoard sfmilar to a Crlbbage board. Cocktail napkins continue to be amusing. One pale green I i lie n set has a different player tn a jazz band on each napkin, while another, which conies in various colors, lists the name of a differ ent drink in the corner of «ach. The new plaid gingham sets come in most cheerful colors and are very inexpensive, Vnu .will want a list of smart I lunch, then by all means do so. That is, if they arc not hurried. Remember that a youngster com ing home from school never comes straight home. A wise school principal in a recent talk to a parent - teachers association said children must have a few ex tra minutes to kick a rock from block to block, or go around every tree on a certain block three times, perhaps—all of these im portant things are part of the walk. If there is a good lunch room at school, vary the regime by let ting him have an occasional "bought" lunch—perhaps on your Friday houßecleaning day, when houses look so topsy-turvy and people are scurrying about so much. We are suggesting here an invit ing home menu that has energy content which the child needs, anil also some wholesome and delici ous foods to put into the "putk and-carry" lunch.
