HIGH SCHOOL LIFE WAR WORK E Junior Red Cross ' ' Under the leadership of Miss Reid, the Junior Red Crcss has done much important work during the school year. Some of the money was spent for yarn, from which the girls knit sixteen pairs of socks during the flu vacation. They sent fruit and jelly to the emergency lzcspital. Then too they forwarded the drive for collecting tin foil and'peach stones. At Christmas time boxes of candy were sent to one hundred soldiers at Camp Sherman and these were much appreciated. The clothing drive was really instigated by the Red Cross too. The clothing was brought in last fall for the destitute Belgians. A contest was begun to increase enthusiasm and the Seniors came out with the flying colors. U War Orphans V ' The Warren High School has also done well in undertaking to support some fatherless children of France. There have been four adopted by the facultyand students. Those who have paid the required 336.00 for the upkeep of a child are the Senior A's, the Senior B's, the'Junior Red Cross of Senior High and the Faculty. The faculty has already received an in- teresting letter from their godchild.
