not open this room until the scarlet fever
has abated We urge all workers at
either room not to attend if they have
been in any way exposed to the disease.
In all proba bility after September first
the surgical dressing work will be les

refugee garments and already our sewing

in great need of sewers. 1t may be many

as the other work, but that is not the
