This means that $7,125 will actt 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 | for the period. Of these cases 119 were men in active service for the armed forces; 149 cases were veter- ans and 417 were civilians. The a tual expenditure for the period was $3,089.17 and of this amount $829 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 i 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.” The ter quo Na ters Nai HOMER RESIDENT IS SE ALASKA VISITOR Don Smith, owner of the Kenai Builders Supply at Homer and secretary of the Homer Chamber of Commerce stopped in Juneau over- night on his way to Sitka on bus- iness and to attend the Lions con- vention held in that city this week.

The subject was pointed up by an | exchange of correspondence Wwith the Anchorage Garden Club in which it was stated that the wild 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- ng root, and Basin Road where he rocky hillsides left bare by oad 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 thems 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 1| deeply into the rocks. Some garden possibilities are the high bush cran-J Hermann, Commander of the Al- 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 have ibeen 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. 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 o September. The Club received first{ developments in the field of can- prize in the class of foreign con- tributors and an award of $15.00 in addition to the trophy.
