Knitters Disappointed!
Cannot Give Out Sweaters

In the midst of a wonderful re-
sponse to the s. o. S. for knitters is
sued Wednesday, the Red Cross Chap
ter here received the following order
yesterday.
To All Chapters and Branches, Allan
tic Division, A. r. c.
Subject;knitted goods and comfort
kits.
Please discontinue the custom of
giving knitted articles and comfort
kits to draft contingents leaving home
The knitted articles are unnecessary
during the summer weather, and if
given now will be worn out. lost or
damaged by the time they are needed
IN the Autumn. Further, your chap
ter will soon receive its allotment for
knitted articles to be supplied during
the next four months, and your entire
output should be shipped to the Allan
tic Division Supply Service.
The Bureau Of Military Relief will
continue its custom of delivering to
the supply officer of each military
contingent leaving for service abroad
all the above articles for use when
needed.
Concerning army and navy kits, we
specially request that all that are made
be shipped promptly to the supply SER
vice. We are under instructions to
give a kit to every man leaving for
foreign service, as they may be billet
ed for months where they will have
no opportunity to purchase these ar
ticles. Troops in camps at home are
always within reach Of these minor
necessaries.
Second Subject:
In case an enlisted man en- route is
taken from the train at your town on
account Of illness or disability, will
you please see that all attention is
given him, and that an immediate re-
port be sent to this office, together with
the mans name, Military Unit and
home town.
JOHN MAGEE,
Director Military Relief.
Approved:
Ethan Allen, Mgr,
Atlantic Division.
The knitting committee calls atten-
ton in the above order that this chap
ter will soon receive an allotment for
four months work to keep up the gen.
eral supply at Division Headquarters.
The knitters are therefore urged not
to abandon their work.
In view OF the fact that II ather
conditions demand sweaters they will
be furnished by the Red Cross field
directors, upon application to the COM
manding officers in the camps, the
obys are assured of being cared for,
but to keep supply at the camps we
must keep Division Headquarters
shelves stocked
Regret Is felt over the loss of the
personal home touch. While this is
disappointing to the local workers, as
well as to the next draft contingent,
the chapter officials call attention to
the fact that it is only putting in prac-
| tice the general principle of the Amer
ican Red Cross. Waste nothing. Help
where and when needed.
