meet once a week for the purpose or
studying how best to render elective
Home Service.

Miss Callahan, who addressed the

. ‘ meeting Friday, said in part:

“Good intentions are not qualificav
tions for Home Berries Workers!
Trained workers are needed for you
want to accomplish your work in the
best possible way, and this you fan-
not do unless you have learned how
to do it. Therefore as volunteer field
workers you are morally obligated to
study in order that you may become
efficient in your field work.

"The Home Seerce Section is an

‘ cl-lanised branch of the American

Red Cross concerned with Civilian Re-
lief. it should deal with the welfare
oi families of‘ soldiers and sailors. lo—
cally it comprises an executive board.
and volunteer field workers who have
been appointed by the executive com-
mittee. Field workers. you are the
people who are to do the work. n

"How. when and where shall the
field worker begin, and what is ex-
pected of her? An application for in'
formation or service has been made

' to the Home Service Executive by a

family who has a member of it in
government service. The executive
board conununicates with the fieli
worker immediately. requesting that
she study the situation in order to dis-
cover whetner or not the case is one
within the jurisdiction of the Home
Service, and to determine the right
opportunity” for service. The execu-
tive board submits to the investiga-
tor all information he or she has re-
ceived from the applicant concerning
the situation. Here ‘begins the work
0: the field investigator. Now is the
special opportunity for the man or wo-
man with a gift for friendliness and
the ability to adapt themselves to
environmental circumstances’ I would
emphasise this gift for Just so far as
you assert these personalities will you
be succeful. Develope a sympathetic
understanding. Establish a conti-

“Now is presented to ya forcibly

Proceeds Turned Over to Not-walk
Chapter Red Cross Fund.

The school children of Norris“: are
doing their "hit” for the war by col-
lecting tin-foil which is sold to the
local junk-dealers and the proceeds
are turned into the Norwalk Chapter
of the lied Cross. This movement
started late in thei‘all and of course,
the closing of the schools has inter
fered to some extent with the colleo
tions. 80 far. over six dollars have
been realised. and only eight schools
have been heard from. Hereafter. an'
effort will be made to keep the lead
and tin-foil in separate boxes, the tin-
foil being folded into sheets and the
lead rolled into balls. This will sug-
ment the fund greatly for only 4 Me
