RED CROSS DRIVE. \ To be Held in Kingston on May 28th, 20th and 30th. Arrangements are now in progress for the Red Cross drive which has been been an annual feature since the war, and one that Kingston has supported with considerable liber- ality. It will be held at the end of May, on the 28th, 29th and 30th. As usual collectors will set up their tables in certain banks and other prominent places where they will catch the attention of those interest- ed, and the press will also draw at- tention to their presence and the need for subscriptions. The Red Cross Society came into its own during the war, when through it so much was done for thé comfort of the soldiers. With the end of the war it was re-constituted in order to meet the special needs of the civilians. The Red Cross main- tains small hospitals and nursing centres in' Northern Ontario and In the more unsettled portions of other provinces, where the need for such institutions is great but the popula- tion too scanty to afford them. The educative as curative. - The society directs the Junior Red Cross, which teaches health prin- ciples to school children here in Kingston as well as in other cities and in the rural centres. This work ix bound to maké the growing gener- ation healthier. Equipment is con- stantly kept in store by the society with which to deal with epidemics when they break out. Beds, blankets and other necessities can be sent out in car load lots to any point of dan- ger, and medical staffs can be mobi- lized in a few hours. Health educa- tion for adults is carried on through the columns of a most interesting publication which is sent free to all who subscribe one dollar or nore to the funds of the society. This work deserves the heartiest support of all the citizens of Canada, and it is most earnestly to be hoped that Kingston will not come short in its quota. ---------- . The Late George B. Noble.
