Mrs. Porter would like to have all the old workers and all new ones that are available when the chapter starts its new work next week.
 There are ten girls from Flagstaff who have registered for the student nurses course and are awaiting their calls. They are all A-No. registrars and enthusiastic volunteers.
 Mrs. Porter has received the bill of lading for a new lot of goods con- signed to the chapter here. The ship ment of materials is expected by the next meeting. These materials are for Belgian relief work. One thous- and gauge articles are an additional requirement for the September allot- ment.
 The work Tuesday consisted in fin | ishing up some old work that had been pushed aside by the other rush work. There is crib quilt being patched for local sale. Aviation coats are being made now The ladies are also mak- ing new sleeve bands for the sol diers who go on the 26th. These sleeve bands have U. s. N. A. in- scribed on them.
 All the knitted goods and little Bel gian dresses should be in as soon as possible, as they are to be shipped about the first of September.
