The Junior Red Cross has been on its toes this year in the many phases of work typical of this organ- ization. Both local and foreign protects were chosen to be worked on. The filling of the educational gift box- es and a special Christmas drive were the projects which carried out these different phases of work. The yearly Junior Red Cross enrollment began with a bang, followed by various campaigns of equal importance. These were successfully completed with the aid of the representatives from each home- room. Something new was added this year, when, instead of picking the usual Christmas gift boxes, the re- presentatives voted to make donations of money which was to be used by the Welfare Department in supplying the needy families with proper food, clothing, and medicine. The Junior Red Cross is a definite working part of our school. The officers are: President-Mary Dawson, Vice-President-Leland Gipson, Secretary-Treasurer-Bet tye Ralston, Committee Chairman-Alice Spivey. The sponsor for this organization is Mrs. C. L. Gaut.
