Red Cross Society to C Micir TT Register Blood Donors sn m« The newlyâ€"formed Timmins branch | of the Red Cross Society last Thursday afterimioon became the second organizaâ€" tion in the province to adopt a plan for the registration of blood donors for persons in this district requiring transâ€" fusins in time of illness or accident. N. R. Vinton, of Toronto, field secretary of tne Ontario division of the Red Cross Society, was present at the’ meeting and explained the advantages of such a system of registration, which in England has developed into one of the finest services rendered by thel British Red Cross. The society branch in Ottawa is the only other group in Ontario to adopt such a plan up to date, Mr. Vinton announced. The registration will be on an enâ€" tirely volunteer basis. If a person to whom a transfusion is given is able to pay, the regular amount of $25 will go to the person supplying the blood. In the event of a patient requiring blood who cannot pay, the service will be free. President Austin Neame, who presided, told the meeting that Dr. James Barry, of Timmins, and Dr. G. C. Armitage, of Schumacher, have alâ€" ready informed him that they are greatly interested in the proposed reâ€" gistration and are willing to assist its furtherance in any way that they can. Mrs. James Barry was appointed chairâ€" man of a committee to direct the reâ€" gistration. The field secretary, Mr. Vinton, outâ€" lined a suggested programme to the society, which for the present time will include dental work among indigent children, the organization of a Junior Red Cross Society and the distribution of cod liver oil to children of sdéhool and preâ€"school age. it snn uesntc mc tm m m mm en smm tm ies n w n esnc on se mc ooo« omm ons ommc mm o es Referring to the dental programme, it was brought out that in many cases the father of a large family of chilâ€" dren is unable to pay the cost of rent. fuel, food and Clothing and also pay dentists‘ ‘bills, with the result that ‘his children‘s teeth are neglected. In these cases the Red Cross Society will pay local dentists a flat rate to look after the cases authorized for attention. The task will be rotated among the denâ€" tists and the rates paid will be in reâ€" lation to their overhead and cost of materials used. Dr. J.

Mr. ESmall thought that it would be posâ€" sible to assess each member one or two dollars to pay for the building of the boats but the meeting was unfavourâ€" able to this plan.

Children‘s Aid Making Annual Appeal for Funds The annual campaign for funds to carry on the work of the District of Cochrane Children‘s Aid Society is unâ€" der way. This year, as last, the plan adopted is to send out letters explainâ€" ing the work and containing memberâ€" ship tickets. Th recipients of the letâ€" ters are asked to forward their contriâ€" butions to A. G. Carson, secretary, or Mrs. K. A. Eyre, president, an addressâ€" ed envelope being enclosed for the conâ€" venience of the subscribers. While the membership fee is one dollar, it is hoped that the majority sending in doâ€" rations will make the fee considerably moreâ€"the higher the better â€" as the Society‘s work requires considerable exâ€" penditure. DPuring the coming year the expronses will be increased in view of the fact that following the request of the Department at Toronto, the Society is adding a special social service workâ€" er. It is held by the Department that whil> this addition may increase the costs for this year, it will eventually result in lessened expenses, as the seAâ€" vices of a trained social servce worker will prevent the breakingâ€"up of many a hom> and so avoid the necessity for taking many children from their homes because of wrong home conditions. At tire present time there are 15 children in the Shelter here, and thirâ€" tyâ€"one children being boarded out in private homes, their expenses being paid by the Society. FEach child so boarded out costs the Society fAfteen dollars per month for board, plus mediâ€" cal and dental care.

Many nationaliâ€" ties will be represented on the proâ€" gramme, which at present has not yet been completed. but which, even at this stage promises to be both interesting and entertaining. BAND TO BROADCAST AGAIN MONDAY EVENING, NEXT WEEK Suspended Driver is Facing Charge For many years the District of Cochâ€" rane Childen‘s Aid Socdiety has been doing notable work for the children of the district. The motto of the Society is "A Fair Chance for Every Child," and the officers and executive have spared no efforts to give full effect to the motto. The idea has been to see that every child has a good home, is well cared for, and has a fair chance for education, health and happiness. In cases where the homes are not all they should be, the effort has been to improve the home, and where the homes cannot or will not be improved, as a last resort to find another homeâ€" a good homeâ€"for the child. ‘The Soâ€" cilety has also seen to the medical and hospital care of chidiren whose parâ€" ents could not provide these things. Also, the Society has given care and protection to children who have run counter to the law or encountered other troubles. This work for the children is surely worthy of support and no doulxt this year as in the years that are past will receive the approval and assistance of A chorus, made up of pupils of the Birch street school, and under the diâ€" rection of Miss Teskey, will render several selections, and the event proâ€" mises to be a very interesting one.

Mr. E. J. Transom, supervising principal of the Timmins public schools, will outline the new course of study. This address will be especially interesting to those whose children are at present attending the public schaol, and will also have an attraction for those who are not in this class, as they may then fully underâ€" stand what benefit may be derived from this new method.
