NO LABELS, NO BOXES

A number of women who applied
for Christmas cartons, in which to
send packages to the boys overseas,
were yesterday denied the containers
because they had no labels from the
boys to whom these boxes are to be
sent.
The specifications require each man
on the other side to send label which
has been given to him by the Red
Cross to his home folk to be placed
on his Christmas package.
Either the boys have delayed send
ing them, or the mails are at fault, as
so far, none worth mentioning has
been received here.
