One of the small comforts which their Canadian cousins make for them is a commodity of the Canadian Junior Red Cross called a "bomb kit". This little bag contains a toothbrush, comb, bobbie pins and other toilet articles.. Bomb kits are sent in quantities to England as part of the equipment for supervisors on duty in bomb shelters. Of far greater importance, however, is the work which the Junior Red Cross maintains for children whose homes have been demolished. The Canadian Junior Red Cross is now entirely supporting and clothing the children of 14 nurseries in England to which the homeless, often parentâ€" less children of the blitz are brought by the English Waifs and Strays Society. Here they are given expert medical care, warmed, clothed and fed, and here the long task of rehabilitation begins. Each English nursery receives from the Canadian Junior Red Cross $3,500 a year to pay for heat, light, staff, food and equipment, and in addition it receives ample outfits of clothing made and bought in Canada. Last year the Junior Red Cross of Toronto alone sent to British children more than 19,000 articles of clothing. During the Red Cross Campaign, remember the children, neediest of all. Let your heart carry your hand to your pocket and giveâ€"more than you haye ever given before. The Red Cross needs $10,000,000 now.
