The Community Yarn Supply
Station For Monroe County.

Mr.. Woody Howard's generous
donation of $25 to the Red Cross for
the establishment of a community
yarn supply station carries a two
fold benefit to the members of the
Monroe county Red Cross, and TO all
who have loyed ones soldering and
needing the useful, comfort giving
knitted articles used in the army.
Yarn will be sold at the regular re-
tail prices and the best obtainable
will be kept on hand. The knitting
department of the Red Cross is not
allowed to sell yarn, so this dona-
ton provides the means for supply
ing mothers, sisters, sweethearts.
wives who wish to make personal
gifts to their own boys. BY estab-
fishing wholesale connections which
we are able to do by buying large
quantities. there will be realized a
small profit from the sale of this
yarn; this profit will be turned over
to the local Red Cross chapter.
Mr. Howard has asked Mrs, Ben
II. Mcfarland and Miss Mary Creed
Howard to take charge of the mat
ter of ordering and selling the yarn;
in turn they ask the following ladies
to serve with them: Miss Christine
Rogers, Miss Anne I'll. Mcfarland,
Miss Charlotte Wolf. Mrs. Frank
Carter. Mrs. ID. w, Houston and
Mrs. G. H. Bumpass. a new ship-d
ment of the softest, loveliest wool is
now on hand; the khaki for sweat
ers and creamy white (quite the
newest thing for socks)
The endeavor of the committee
will be to keep up with the newest
and most satisfactory wool on the
market and to serve the people of
Monroe county as promptly and eff
ficiently as their ability allows. Buy
your yarn for the soldiers from the
Community Supply Stations and
have the profits revert in turn to our
own dear Red Cross chapter.

Though the Official Board of the
Methodist Church gave to your pas
tor a leave of absence for three
months, still your pastor can not
conscientiously avail himself of the
opportunity thus afforded him be-
aause of the need of the church here
in Aberdeen. Your pastor realizes
that because of the deep spirit of
patriotism that swells in the breast
of all citizens of Aberdeen. his board
granted his request regarding the
leave of absence. but further dellb-
Grafton on the part of your pastor
leads him to the conclusion that a
pOstponement of that matter. on
his part, will not greatly hurt any
thing at all, while leaving Aberdeen
at this most critical time Of the
year might cripple matters some
what with the church. Especially
so since the church would necessari-
ly have to be left in the hands of
an experienced young man. OF
course the young man might pos
sibly succeed. then again he might
not. As pastor of this church. |
have come TO the conclusion that
unless the Y. NJ. G. A. can accept
me, without trial, so that a pastor
of experience can be appointed here
at the time OF my leaving, / just
can not afford to leave the church
here in Aberdeen. OF course. if the
Y. NJ. c. A. Is willing to take me,
without trial. | am willing to 90
now. Otherwise, | must postpone
the matter Of my trial to a later
date. have thus written DR.. Alex
ander, who i at the head Of the
Personnel Bureau of the Southeast
ern Division of the u NJ. C. A war
work.
Since am staying for the inter
est of the home church. | shall ex-
pect every member to give me his, /
or her, support in the great work
that God is attempting to do through
the church.
