En- glish Hedgerows 4

in 1916 strenuous efforts have been made
in both these countries to conserve and
augment the supply of wool available.
Women have worn silk and satin, even in
cold weather; men will not buy new
suits; children have been modified to
hunt wool, in the fields and lanes and
attics.
In l9l6-'l7 the rural school children
of England were formed into bands and
sent out into the lanes and bushes, after
school hours, to pluck from stray
branches and brambles tufts of wool that
had been torn from the backs of sheep
on their way TO and from grazing fields.
The mothers and the grandmothers Of
these children then cleaned and sorted
this wool and sent it to the Ordnance
Bureau in London. Over twenty pounds
of wool were CLEANED by this method by
the children of Devonshire alone, and
many times that amount was collected
