Washington, July TO- By Union
Associated Press)-Since American
women have stopped making safety

nacks for the soldiers, the Red Cross
headquarters is bcsieged with requests
for a list Of things that will be Of
greatest service to the "Sammies," as
the French have nicknamed the
American soldiers. Here is q list:
100000 bath robes or c~onvalescent
gowns; 100000 pairs of bed socks;
700 1000 handkerchiefs; $4,000 hospital
bed shirts; 100000 pairs ward

that the production of bandages should
not be allowed to fall of. Special

NOTICE TO ALL WOMEN RED
CROSS MEMBERS.

The Lefore County Chapter A. R. c.
now has over 200 pairs pajamas cut
out and ready for making, and urges
every woman member of the chapter
who can sew to come to the old Bern
stein building on Howard street and
make one pair there under the direc-
ton of a teacher, and after that they
can take a pair home and make them.
These supplies we are making are to
be used in the hospitals abroad for U
own wounded American soldiers when
they are needed. Keeping these sup
plies up is the women's part of the
war and makes the work of the Red
Cross Army truly a gigantic one, and
means that we must be at it now and
keep constantly at it until this war is
over.
On account of the difficulty of gett-
ing the raw material abroad the bulk
of these supplies must come from
America. In a letter, Eliot Wads-
worth, acting chairman of the A. R. c.
to the Memphis Chapter, gives in the
following figures the amount of sup
plies greatly needed by our allies.
100000 bath robes, or convalescent
gowns.
100000 pairs of bed socks.
100000 handkerchiefs.
100000 hospital bed shirts.
100000 suits of pajamas.
100000 shoulder wraps.
100000 pairs of socks.
25O,0OO pairs of ward slippers.
These figures give us some idea o.
the great task before Us.
Red Cross headquarters are nov
open at the old Bernstein building, ant
hours from 9 a.. m. until IL NJ, ant
from 8 p. m. until 6 p. m. We neet
