Drive Will Last Three Days Sociology to Have Charge of Work This Year
FOUR PAGES
Students have volunteered to help, by giving their time to the Red Cross during this campaign. Students will be in charge of the number of buildings in the University and students will be in charge there to receive contributions during the three days of the trip.
The campaign is in behalf of the Douglas county chapter of the Red Cross. Of every dollar contributed, 50 will go to the local chapter and 50 will be used for a local organization to be used for disaster relief and Red Cross service.
The money sent to the local chapter this year will be used chiefly for the maintenance of a public health nursing program and nursing staff. The county is providing for an unusually well qualified health nurse who examines the country school children and sees that they receive necessary medical and dental care.
The national organization during the past year, has served in all kinds of disasters; flood, fire, cyclone and explosion. Workers of the Red Cross have been at hand after every such event, and have almost immediate and comfort.
