Diary Student Notes On A Week At School

It describes a test with a few correct answers, reflections on living costs, a teacher discussion about immortality and honesty, an essay on sugar, cookies baked at home, a strike hint, and a dull day noting a classmate named Jane absent with an illness. The tone is informal and childlike with spelling idiosyncrasies.

Double Barred Red Cross Marks 17 Years of Aid
The double barred Red Cross turns seventeen this month tracing roots to the 1902 Berlin meeting where the emblem for the fight against tuberculosis was adopted. Dr G Sersiron of Paris proposed the design combining the Croix de Lorraine and the Greek Catholic cross. The symbol was carried to the United States in 1906 with the National Tuberculosis Association and its affiliates now totaling about one thousand. The work is funded largely by the Red Cross Christmas Seal sale.
