RED CROSS DRIVE
CGNTiM HERE;
QUOTA IS $9871
The Juneau Chapter of the Am-1
erican Red Cross is making an ex- I
fort to keep abreast with the na
tion’s program of intensifying and
increasing its services to the nation.
Ihese services include neip for
the Armed forces, veterans, help in
times of disaster, an accelerated
blood program, safety education,
home nursing activities and train
ing, nurse's aid training program,
many foreign operations and volun
ieer services.
The quota for the Juneau chap
ter this year in the fund drive is
59.871. Of this amount 72.2 per cent
will be left in the chapter treasury
for local work and only 27.8 per
cent will be remitted to headquar
ters for National Red Cross work.
This means that $7,125 will actually
be made available for Red Cross
activities in the Juneau area and
only $2,746 will go in for the Na
tional Red Cross Program.
In the eighteen months past, the
Red Cross has rendered aid to the
following number of cases through
the Juneau Chapter. Six hundred;
and eighty-five cases were handled
tor the period, ui tnese cases 11a
were men in active service for the
armed forces; 149 cases were veter
ans and 417 were civilians. The ac
tual expenditure for the period
was $3,089.17 and of this amount
$829 was repayed. This amounts to
$45.50 average expended on each
case. It should be noted that this
expenditure is only for the "Home
Service” item in the budget of the
Red Cross Chapter which is only
one of the many services rendered
by the local chapter.
Fred McGinnis, campaign chair
man, stressing the importance of
reaching this quota of $9871 for
the current fund campaign, pointed
out that “the increased services
made necessary by large expansion
of the armed forces, procurement
of blood plasma for the armed for
ces and civil defense, work among
our veterans and their dependents
make the success of the goal imper
ative.”

GARDEN CLUB ASKS
PROTECTION GIVEN
BEAUTY SPOTS HERE
How to coordinate the use of na
tive shrubs and flowers in the home
garden with the preservation of
roadside beauty was considered at
the monthly meeting of the Juneau
Garden Club Wednesday afternoon
The subject was pointed up by an
exchange of correspondence with
the Anchorage Garden Club in
which it was stated that the w'ild
flowers on the Eklutna meadows
are endangered by ruthless pluck
ing.
Two areas around Juneau were
pointed out as deserving especial
protection as beauty spots for tour
ist and hiked enjoyment; the sec
tions in front of the glacier where
flowers and shrubs are newly tak
ing root, and Basin Road where
the rocky hillsides left bare by
road building are now covered with
young growth. A campaign to urge
the public to dig their flowers and
shrubs at least 50 feet back from
the roadside, as is the law in many
states, was suggested.
Mounted Specimens
Mrs. J. O. Rude, representing the
Juneau Botannical Club, presented
a series of mounted specimens that
can be found in the Juneau area,
many of which will adapt them
selves to garden culture. She urged
the use of native planting, both for
its beauty and as not likely to win
ter kill, and advised transplanting
the shrubs when very young, before
their tap roots have grown too
deeply into the rocks. Some garden
possibilities are the high bush cran
berry, spirea, red-twigged dogwood,
false azalea, wild current and
copper bush. Among the flowers
available in the area are the tundra
rose, wild heliotrope, lupine, iris,
shooting star, wild geranium, po
tentillas and anemones.
Plant Food
The second part of the program |
was a presentation by Bea Shep
ard of the plant food resources in
digenous to Alaska. These haver
been collected in an attractive
pamphlet prepared by the nutrition
unit of the Alaska Department of
Health. The vitamin C content of
many of them have been analyzed
by the Department staff.
In her timely garden tips for the
month Mrs. Harry Stonehouse sug
gested starting slips now for the
Garden Sale later in the spring. ,y
Club Receives Trophy
Mrs. Ray Renshaw, the president,
surprised the members by exhibit
ing the newly received trophy, a
black shield-shaped plaque with
the inscription engraved on silvered
metal, awarded to the Club for its
entry in the Pacific National Ex
hibition at Vancouver, B. C. last
September. The Club received first i
prize in the class of foreign con
tributors and an award of $15.00
in addition to the trophy.
Further contributions to the Liv
ing Memorials fund, in memory of
Charles Forward and Mrs. Jose
phine Boyd, were reported by Mrs.
George Sundborg. This fund is to
be used for landscaping the Library
grounds.
Mrs. Frances Paul and Mrs.
Maxcine Williams were asked to
prepare an entry for the Club in
the essay contest conducted by the
Washington State Garden Clubs on
the conservation of our natural
resources.
Mrs. Harry Stonehouse, the hos
tess, assisted by Mrs. Jack Clark,
served dessert luncheon before the
program. Guests were Mesdames
Amy Rude, Gertrude Bumgarner
and Jean Rogers.
