The knitting committee, assisted by
Mrs. McNimms. Is making an effort to
speed up work and to locate material
which has been out for several months
In some cases since August. There
is no reason why yarn which has been
out for that length of time should not
have been returned In the form of
garments, long ere this. There are
many who are willing and anxious to
work but who are unable to improve
their time in this manner on account
Of a shortage of yarn. These would be
glad of the opportunity to secure the
yarn.
