|
Saturday Cove, Bayside and Searsport
Miss Fletcher gave instructions for max
ing the various dressings ETC., used at the
hospitals, spoke at length of the neces-
sity of sanitary conditions, how old ma
terials may be used for tray cloths, hand
kerchiefs, etc. Among the many things
wanted Immediately are gauze dressings
and bandages, hospital garments, knitted
things of wool, socks, sleeveless sweat
ers, helmets for aviators, ETC. There is
not so great need of the knitted things
of cotton, although these are most well
come. 1t is well to correct wrong i'm
preston regarding the abdominal band
ages knitted of cotton yarn. These, it
has been stated, are only used once and
discarded That is not true. Miss Fetch
er said that these bandages are used over
and over again because they wash easily
and while the committees are not asking
people for them any more, owing to the
scarcity and cost of the yarn and the
time consumed in knitting them, they
are very welcome and will always BID used
to advantage. The fourth shipment of
supplies to Boston was made on Saturday,
consisting of As pajamas, "a hospital
shirts, convalescent robes and large
quantity of handkerchiefs, tray cloths
and napkins. All persons in the county
who are knitting the cotton yarn, are
} asked to finish articles already started
and send to US when convenient. The
following gifts have been received: SIS
from the West Northport Ladies' Aid; SIS
from Mrs. George Miller; $25 from Miss
, Katherine Walker of Liberty. The sew
ing afternoons will be held Thursday and
Friday.
