that we were not allo we'd any more
than thirty members 20 the unit and
that the amount OF wool furni he'd
by the Comforts League III u. S.
was limited to fifteen pounds for
each unit. However, the whole club
felt relieved when it was announced
that Mr.. J. A. Salmen lad come to
the rescue with an offer to furnish
all the wool the ladies OF the club
care to knit for an unlimited time.
Mr.. Salmen's kindness Is certainly
appreciated not merely as club but
as individuals.

unit will soon be formed, so that
some who are anxious to come in and
knit might get full benefit aud prop

ladies would find it pleasant and
profitable.
Any one desiring to form another
unit may obtain the necessary in
