BIG DEMAND
FOR WOOLENS
RED CROSS URGED TO MAKE
MILLIONS OF KNIT GARMENTS
FOR TROOPS.

An urgent appeal is being sent out
from the national Red Cross headquar-
tiers for 100000 knitted wooden ar
.ticles for the soldiers in France. The
call specifies 1000, 900 each of sweat
ers, mufflers, wristlets, and socks. This
call is official, as it comes direct from
Major Grayson NJ. P. Murphy OF Cen
eral Pershing's staff, the Red Cross
commissioner Of Europe, who knows
perhaps better than any other man
lust how badly these things are need
ed.
Major Murphy, In his message
speaks of the dread Of the men for the
long, cold European winter, and urges
that the articles mentioned be shipped
at once in order that they may arrive
and be given out to the soldiers before
the cold weather arrives.
This call for hnitted articles Is but
one phase Of the work Of relief which
the American Red Cross will carry on
The knitting will not be permitted to
stop the making Of surgical supplies
which are used in caring for the
wounded. The knitting Is merely an
extra rush order in addition to every
thing else that the Red Cross has un-
dertaken to do.
Supplies and directions for knitting
may be procured at the local Red Cross
Headquarters, and classes are held each
afternoon for teaching the correct
methods Of knitting.
