I 22 North Front St. J Tileston School Red Cross Unit Proves Success Junior Council Was Formed In February And Conducts Weekly Meetings The Junior American Red Cross Council at Tileston school has made long strides towards becom ing one of the foremost organiza tions in the school with its aim of making boys and girls independ ent and ready to shoulder respon sibility in times of disaster. The council was formed Feb. 8, 1942 to plan Red Cross work for the entire school. It meets each Wednesday afternoon. Two repre sentatives from each classroom, fourth through the eighth, were elected to serve on the council. Mrs. Dale Spencer and Mrs. W. E. Stanley were invited to be faculty sponsors. Mrs. Spencer tells the story of the effective work the council is sponsoring at Tileston: “Although newly organized the council immediately launched a campaign for St. Valentine’s Day. Instead of the usual valentines we suggested an exchange of defense stamps. In our check up two days later we found that $37.75 in de fense stamps had been exchanged. “In connection with the present ‘war on waste’ we have asked each boy and girl in Tileston to collect for us old newspapers, mag azines, and other papers. These are collected by council represen tatives in each homeroom and turned over to grade 5a. This grade, under the supervision of Mrs. Dannebaum, was carrying on this work before we were organ ized. They in turn give the papers to the Brigade Boys’ club. We hope to make all pupils ‘paper con scious’ and save on school paper and art suplies. They have been asked to use both sides of all pa per. “For Easter the Junior Red Cross asked the art classes to work with us in' making place cards for the hospital at Ca m p Davis. These cards were originally designed by the children and painted with water colors. A total of 500 cards were sent. Later we received a letter from Capt. Giber saying that the cards were used not only in patients mess, but also in the Medical Detachment and officers’ mess. “In March we put on a Cleanl iness Campaign in our school. Pos ters were made by members . of the council and placed in the rooms and halls. Committees were appointed to be in charge of t h e yard, rest rooms and cafeteria. This drive was to remind pupils of regulations for school cleanli ness. “For several weeks we ha v e been working on model airplanes to be used by the army in instruc tion schools. Tileston boys are making 10 Boeing 17-E Bombers. These are better known as the Flying Fortress. All these are wood models and are to be painted black. We were delighted to hear that our planes are to be used at Camp Davis. Making these planes gives us a feeling of doing our bit for defense. We feel that the time is well spent: first, because the planes will be used by our army; second, it enables our boys to study and be able to recognize the various types of planes; third, it gives practical training in handi craft. Recently the Council sponsored a chapel program to put before the entire student body the pur pose and work of the Junior Red Cross organizations. The play, ‘The Boy Who Thought He Knew,’ was especially written for the Red Cross and fully explained how the money for thp organization wa s collected and the various ways in which it was spent. .Last week one thousand leaflets were distributed in the school on ‘Accident Prevention in v the Homes.’ Each teacher was given a pamphlet on ‘Preventing Acci dents’ to use supplementary to her health text. This material is dis tributed yearly by the Red Cross. This year Tileston school class membership in Junior Red Cross rooms have a hundred per cent membership in Junior Red Cross. Since our council has been organ ized we have cooperated with school authorities in planning and carrying out defense work. We are endeavoring to make boys and girls independent and ready to shoulder responsibility in times of disaster. Next year we hope to make our council the most active organiza tion in Tileston school. We a re making plans to organize classes for seventh and eighth graders in first aid, disaster relief, and Reel Cross home nursing.” 4 * * * Auxiliary To Medical Society Plans State Meet In Charlotte (Continued from Page Eleven) AUXILIARY TO MEDICAL DS follow at which Mrs. Roscoe E.
