Ogden Juniors Will Gain National Red Cross Fame Activities Will Be Shown In Magazine; Gifts To Be Sent Away The Junior Red Cross program in Ogden will be featured in an early issue of the national Red Cross magazine, local leaders have been informed. Data on the program and pictures illustrating it will be provided from reports to national headquarters and from an article which appeared last March in The Standard-Examiner. At least one group of Christmas boxes sent by the Junior Red Cross in Ogden last year reached its goal, Mrs. W. Karl Hopkins reported this week at junior council meeting held at Madison school. Mrs. Hopkins is chairman of Junior Red Cross for Weber county chapter. A letter has been received at Washington school from a Chinese city, where school children reported the boxes sent from the Ogden school were the only Christ¬mas gifts received there last year. Gifts This Year Christmas boxes to be made up this year will be sent to China, Great Britain and Alaska, accord¬ing to an assignment made by na¬tional headquarters. Another letter has been received in Ogden relative to Junior Red Cross work. National headquarters sent a message to Miss Sarah Wilson, city school art supervisor, complimenting her on the work done on menu covers last year, de¬claring the covers were outstand¬ing among those submitted from schools throughout the nation. Similar covers are to be made in the schools this year, and are to be sent to ships in the U. S. navy. For Institutions A plea for Ogden school children to produce as many articles this year as they can for distribution at Fort Douglas, and the veterans' hospital in Salt Lake City and at the state school for the deaf and blind and the state tuberculosis sanatorium in Ogden, was made to the council by Mrs. Hopkins. All types of knitted articles are to be included in this list and lap boards, writing tablets and similar articles will be sent to one of the four in¬stitutions. A call for volunteers to aid in war production work—knitting and sewing—will be issued along with the annual membership and health drive which the Junior Red Cross will stage in the immediate future. 'FIRST AIDERS' FORM GREATEST NEED IN OGDEN Women and Girls Bidden To Register for Training Women and girls who want to do their share in national defense are advised that the most needed workers in this area today are "first aiders." The local Red Cross chapter was advised Monday that although there are scores of trained "first aiders," the majority of them are in indus¬tries or occupations that will need all manpower when the need for first aid arises, either through bombing or some other catas¬trophe. Most of the trained persons listed with the Red Cross are police, fire¬men, utilities employes or guards at one or another of the military reservations near Ogden. In other words, the number of trained per-sons available in case of disaster is limited to about a score. Registration for first aid train¬ing can be made at Weber college and at Ogden and Weber county high schools, it was announced at the Red Cross chapter office. Kent S. Bramwell, who was ill today, is expected to set up an office in conjunction with the Red Cross office for the purpose of directing first aid training in the city. It is hoped that several hun¬dred persons will register for im¬mediate training. They Strive for Perfection in First Aid Training TRAINING . . . Members of Soroptimist club of Ogden are shown above as they strove for perfection in first aid work to contribute their bit to national defense. These women will volunteer for service as drivers and aides on emergency ambulance service in case of an invasion of the intermountain country. The "victims" are Mrs. W. O. Norville, with arm in sling, and Mrs. Elizabeth Bird with head bandaged. Applying the arm bandage is Ethel Glasmann Clark, Soroptimist president, and placing the head bandage is Miss Sheila Astley. In center is Mrs. Dix Jones, instructor. The women have completed the Red Cros standard first aid course. Red Cross Now is the time to give of your better self to the Red Cross as a part of your contribu¬tion to the cause of America. Here in Ogden the organization is making articles for the soldiers and there is need for several sewing machines. That is one way by which the individual can serve at this time. These little contributions, multiplied by the population of this great country of ours, will become a mighty torrent of giving for the cause of freedom.
