NORTH HAVEN.
Sanitary Relief Association Work by
 North Haven Branch.

North Haven Branch.
 July 25.--The North Haven branch of the Sanitary Relief association held its first meeting for work in the court room of Memorial hall last Friday af- .ternoon. The ladies were kept busy for several hours cutting out and making surgical night shirts, abdominal bands, and handkerchiefs, and the result at the close of the afternoon showed that industry was quite equal to the inter- est taken in the movement.
 There was a greater demand for work than could be supplied, but at the next meeting there will be ample material in available shape for those who wish to take work home with them and also for those who wish to spend an hour or so in working there at the room. Two machines have been loaned for the cause and the numerous tables and the cool breezy apartment make it a pleasant and convenient place to carry on the work for our sick and wounded soldiers.
 The court room will be open every Friday afternoon from until 6 o'clock during the summer and by coming any time between those hours, work may be done there, or taken home, or returned.
 It is very desirable that the gar ments should be finished and handed back as soon as possible, as there is immediate demand for these things. In several parts of the town small neighborhood sewing bees have been in stituted and the people are thus show ing their energy and patriotism. The women of North Haven have respond ed well to the call and the hope is ex- pressed that all will come and encour- age the work by their presence.
 The officers of the North Haven branch of the Sanitary Relief associa- tion are: President, Miss A. l.. Good years vice presidents, Mrs. William Lusk, Dr. R. B. Goodyear, S. B. Thorpe; secretary, Mrs. Payson Orcutt; treas- urer, Mrs. R. B. Goodyear; executive committee, Mrs. Lathrop, Mrs. Fred Crockett. Mrs. Hubert Potter.
