 Since getting into the service our comfort bags are the most essential articles in our equipment, and come in most handy at every turn. Every one of the volunteers join in extend ing our united thanks to the noble ladies of the Clifton Red Cross Chap ter for their kindness and thoughtful ness in supplying them to the boys at the time we left to become a part of Uncle Sam's sea fighters.

Greenvlle News.
In figures published recently in the
News of the subscription to the United
War Work fund, an error occurred in
the total amount subscribed by the
people of Pickens. Pickens, with a
minimum quota of $1,000, subscribed
to the fund SIG, 900, which was actually
in excess of the maximum allotment.
The fact that this town went "over
the top" is especially noteworthy since
the campaign there was under the d.
rection and leadership Of the only
woman chairman in the State. To Mrs.
Gertrude Fl. Mathews is due the honor
of having directed so successful cam
paign.
