Young Women
Adopt Orphan

Among the loyal supporters Of the
Red Cross are the young women at
the Florence Crittenton home and
from their meagre earnings, a num-
Der Of them have cheerfully and
willingly given donations to do their
share in helping to win the war. All
their spare moments have been spent
in Red Cross work during the winter
months. In addition to their volun-
tary donations to the Red Cross.
these women have taken upon them
selves the task Of supporting a
French orphan and have already
raised the sum necessary for it's up
keep for the first year, and are now
considering plans for the raising of
this sum for the next year. While
the sum, $3.50 which is necessary
for this purpose, is not a, large one

considers how these young women
must sacrifice to save it from their
slender earnings.
