This work has required personnel who
are not only sympathetic In the deul-
Ing with patients but who must huve
an understanding of the soctul prob-
lems of civil life.
“Just as It bus always been recog-
nized that the time spem In a gov-

sode In the life of a patient, so has It
been recognized that the gctlvltje- of

In rescuing a drowning person.
Eight life guards, after his demon-
stration on the barge, struggled vicious-
ly with each other In a practical Illus-
tration of life saving tactics.
The Galvesion, (Texas! Life Saving
Corps have frequently exhibited their
skill In first aid and life saving. Owing
to the prompt and efficient first aid ad-
ministered by three members or me
Galveston Life Saving Corps on June
4th, the life of John D. Wheeler. 20
years old, of Houston, Tex., was saved.
Mr. Wheeler was overcome while bath-
ing In shallow water and was found ,
,floating In an unconscious condition.'
The three members of the life saving
corps succeeded In reviving Mr. Wheel-
er through the application of tho'
Sehneffer method of resuseitutlon. He
wa-s taken to the hospital In a very I
weakened condition. As Mr. Wheeler
was found In comparatively shallow
water, It Is believed Ills mlslmp was due
to a fainting spell.
RED CROSS ROLL CALL
AND CHRISTMAS SEAL
8ALE ARE DISTINCT
At n Joint meeting of the National
Committee of the American Red Cross
and the National Tuberculosis Asso-
t-u.*<<>» held recently, uu agreement
G.C. MITCHEL
REAL ESTATE
FARM LOANS
AND
All Kinds of Insurance
wft7i regard to tne campaigns conquer
ed annually by each organization, which
follows each other only a day apart
this year, was reached. The American
Red (Toss will conduct Its Roll Call
from November 11th to November 80th,
The National Tuberculosis Association
will conduct its nation-wide sale of
Christmas Seals from December 1st
to January 1st.
A statement Issued Jointly by the two
organizations says that undoubtedly the
effectiveness of the mutual understand-
ing depends In large meustire upon the
extent to which the local workers of
both organizations adhere to the agree-
ment. Overlapping of effort will be in-
jurious to both causes, the two nation-
al organizations believe, and It Is of
greHt Importance that this Idea I* thor-
oughly understood by the local workers
In both, according to John Barton
Bayne, chnlrtnun of the American lied
Cross, and I>r. Alexander Miller, presi-
dent of Ihe National Tuberculosis As-
sociation.
The official statement of the two or-
ganizulions follows:
1. There is no official connection
between the campaign of the Na-
tional Tuberculosis Association and
that of the American Ited Cross.
2. There Is to be no usa of the
Bed (Toss emblem by Ihe National
Tuberculosis Association.
3. The title of the American Red
Cross Is not to he used In Ihe sale
of Tuberculosis Seals.
4. The dates of the American
Red (Toss Roll Call are to be No-
vember 11th to November 30th, In-
clusive; and the National Tubercu-
losis Association’s sale of seals
begins December 1st and continue*
until January IsL
