tatives, who have just returned from
a two months investigation of Allied
needs in France. The Red Cross is
anxious that these clothes be made by
women working at home instead of
in the chapter work-rooms.
"The garments are very simple.
Great emphasis is laid on the pur-
chase of extremely durable materials,
since, owing to the coal shortage in
France, hot water is available in most
villages only twice a week, and the
greater part of the laundry work is
done in icy streams. The method of
cleansing is by pounding with stones.
Warm baby clothes will save many a
child who otherwise might perish this
year.
"The outfit calls for: Two daisy
cloth or outing flannel dresses; one
flannel or knitted or crocheted jack
ct; three bleached muslin jackets;
three thin white flannel brassieres; !;
one heavy flannel or daisy-cloth hood;
two pairs of bootees; two swaddling
clothes or wooden blankets; three fan
mel binders; twelve diapers; three
undershirts; one bonnet; and bag

about this snow that it doesn't pile

as it showed here one would expect
about 3 feet of the stuff on the ground.
There isn't much over foot however.
This morning was the coldest we've
had. The sky was clear and the air
was just as frosty as could be. The
wagons made that old groaning sound
so common at home. The crunch of
the mems feet was all we could hear
during the entire hike. We arrived
at this place early in the afternoon
and are now set for an indefinite stay.
And now comes the heaven part.

Father Wander Velden then gave a

also explained the Smileage Books on

to buy. Baskets were then sold at
