Junior Red Cross The Junior Red Cross has been re organized this year with a different basis for membership, the school being the unitlbf enrollment, instead of the individual child. The only requirement for membership is that each room in the school shall subscribe to a copy of the "Junior Red Cross News," an in structive and very interesting little paper published every month. These subscriptions have already been paid for oat of the money on hand In the Junior treasury and the schools will soon receive their first copies 'the February issue. It now rests with each school to carry on the good work which the Juniors have accomplished in the past. Since the organization of the local chapter of Juniors three years ago, ap proximately $2,500 has been turned into the treasury by the school children of the city, chiefly through their own efforts. This money, of course, repre sents a splendid work; about half of it has been sent to the children In the devastated countries of Europe; some of it went towards the comfort of our men in France; and some has been spent for work in this community, chief of which was the money given, for the maintenance of a bed In the Baby hospital at Wrightsvllle Sound. Since no Junior Red Cross money has been collected this year, the school children will be given an opportunity to make their contributions on St. Valentine's day. Let each child feel his or her responsibility in keeping alive this wonderful work. Y. W. C. A.
