Do you know that our own 0cala

This is a positive fact, and these
simply must appear in two weeks. So
drop everything on hand, and knit a
sweater instead.
There will be no red tape about the
journey of these sweaters, they will
be sent direct to Captain Drake who
will distribute them at once.
We know how easy it is TO catch
cold here, then think Of how much
more clothing is needed further north,
and get busy at once on a sweater and
work day and night and sent it with
in two weeks. There is no sense in a
beginner trying to accomplish such q
task, we want real knitters for the
boys most need sweaters in the
spring. The Red Cross furnishes the
