Woman's Service League

1t has been previously announc-
ed that the National League for
W, mans Service of Highland Co.
would discontinue its activities in
the name of the League and would
be merged in the Red Cross. The
question Of such an action was
brought up before the March meet
ing of the United Daughters of the
Confederacy and decided upon there
inasmuch as this organization was
influential in establishing the
League and felt that it was within
the rights of the Chapter to decide
this question. Also the National
League had decided to have annual
dues of 81 and with the organiza-
ton of the Red Cross in the County
Zone of the duties of the League),
we felt that one organization of the
kind was sufficient.
We still, as League, have some
work to finish in connection with
the furnishing of convalesceDt
homes for the soldiers. These
homes will be in Virginia, and mon
who are wounded lover there
viii be sent here to get well. AMI
we want to be ready for them
when they come, as they surely
wiz. Each branch of the League
is asked to contribute
pr. single sheets,
l pr. pillow cases,
l suit Of pajamas
l-bath towel, 2 face towels,
3 table napkins, l tray cover,
washclo,h.
On each article will be .sewed q
Red Cross and under the emblem
the name of the contributing
branch will be outlined in red en-
broidery cotton. Our towns will
then be represented and it may
prove Interesting to the soldier tc
know to whom be is indebted fol
these comforts.
MONTEREY will double this, dona-
ton aud the articles are ready fol
the embroidery and the emblem
members of the League who are
interested in this work are asked
to meet at the home of Mrs. G. P
Jones Saturday af ernoon at 4
O'Clock and to bring needles ano
thimbles.
This WILDE our final war work
under the name of the National
League for Woman's Service; but
We expect to continue our relief
work with the Red cross and trust
that all members of the Service
League will be as loyal to the Red
cross asthey have been to the ole
organization.
