| Summary | "The Girls of Central High Aiding the Red Cross" by Gertrude W. Morrison is a fictional novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a group of high school girls who are preparing for an Ice Carnival to raise funds for the Red Cross during challenging times. The main character, Laura Belding, finds herself caught in a mystery involving a misprinted banknote and the accident of a man who appears to be connected to her brother's troubles. The opening of the novel introduces Laura as she grapples with a puzzling $50 cash shortage in her father's jewelry store, which coincides with the arrival of her friends Jess, Bobby, and Lance. As they prepare for their evening outing, they learn about a mishap involving a stranger who has been knocked unconscious by a runaway vehicle. Amid this chaos, a mysterious girl in a Red Cross uniform, Janet Steele, provides aid to the victim, showcasing her resourcefulness and participation in the ongoing Red Cross fundraising efforts. The narrative sets the stage for a larger story filled with friendship, intrigue, and a drive to support a worthy cause, while leaving readers eager to discover how the plots of charitable endeavors and personal mysteries intertwine.
