sions to Washington.

Attention, Children!

Mrs. Davis wants the children who
come up to headquarters on Saturday
afternoons to bring with them No. s
knitting needles, also bright colorod
yarn that they may be able to find mt
home or the neighbors, of such small
amounts as to not be available for
other use. This yarn can be knitted
into small squares. which may in turn
be crocheted together for afghans, thus
every bit OF yarn OF any color can be
utilized by the children in this work.
