There IS en- g O s cell sent broad
cast from the Indiana Harbor Red Cross
centre for more knitters and many Of
them. The quota for knitted socks IS
an immense one and this means that the
energies OF the women OF the communf-
~ be enlisted. 1t is anything but pleas
ant for women to handle the wooiy
yarns during the torrid heat Of these
days but equally unpleasant is the
thought that our boys may be deprived
OF these necessary hose when the de-
~
women who cannot give their time 10
the centre may take the yarns home and
knit and applications for same is all
that is necessary. There is always
some body at the Centre who will only
100 willingly give all information and
instruction necessary. Women respond
10 this call and II you cannot knit now
YOU can become an adept after few
lessons given you by the instructors.
Prepare to give as much time as posi-
be TO the needs Of the Red Cross sew
ing Each quota arriving shows a great
increase over those previously sent and
IL is UP to the women TO shoulder the
burden OF meeting these requirements.
